enum Mezzanine::Graphics::BillboardRotation

This is used by the BillboardSetProxy to decide how billboards should be rotated when they are requested to rotate.

Enumerator
BBR_Vertex	Rotates the vertices of the billboard when rotated.
BBR_TexureCoord	Rotates the texture coordinates of the billboard when rotated, preserving the vertex positions.

Definition at line 82 of file graphicsenumerations.h.

enum Mezzanine::Graphics::BillboardType

This is used by BillboardSetProxies to describe how the billboards are to be oriented.

Enumerator
BBT_Point	Default setting. Billboard direction always faces the camera and is always oriented to be upright.
BBT_Oriented_Common	Billboards are oriented around a common axis provided to the BillboardSetProxy, which will act as their local Y axis. Common Direction needs to be defined for this setting.
BBT_Oriented_Self	Billboards are oriented around their own individually set direction axis, which will act as their local Y axis.
BBT_Perpendicular_Common	Billboards are oriented around a common axis provided to the BillboardSetProxy, which will act as their local Z axis. Common Direction and Common Up Vector needs to be defined for this setting.
BBT_Perpendicular_Self	Billboards are oriented around their own individually set direction axis, which will act as their local Z axis. Common Up Vector needs to be defined for this setting.

Definition at line 90 of file graphicsenumerations.h.

enum Mezzanine::Graphics::CameraPolyMode

This is used by CameraProxies to quickly set a different render mode that is useful for debugging graphics renders.

Enumerator
CPM_Points	Only points for each of the vertices are rendered.
CPM_WireFrame	Wireframes for all the meshes and geometry are rendered.
CPM_Solid	Normal rendering.

Definition at line 101 of file graphicsenumerations.h.

enum Mezzanine::Graphics::LightType

This is used by LightProxies to describe how light is emitted from the proxy source.

Enumerator
LT_Directional	From one direction, like sunlight.
LT_Point	From a point in space, like a Torch, campfire, muzzle flash, Mutant Fireflies, bonfires, light bulbs, non-hooded lantern, the DnD D20 Light spell, explosions, and scotch tape separating from the roll in a unlit vacuum. There may be other uses, be creative.
LT_Spotlight	From a point emanating in a cone, like a flashlight, hooded lantern, really bright computer screens, flood lights, older style space heaters, Concert lights, camera flashes, etc...

Definition at line 110 of file graphicsenumerations.h.

enum Mezzanine::Graphics::ProjectionType

Values for storing how perspective should be interpretted.

Enumerator
PT_Orthographic	No projection is used, objects appear to be flat.
PT_Perspective	Normal (realistic) perspective.

Definition at line 133 of file graphicsenumerations.h.

enum Mezzanine::Graphics::RenderSystem

Used primarily by the graphics manager class during initialization.

This enum specifies which Rendersystem is to be used for rendering.
