HeightmapSampleGui
Description
- Derived from

A GUI component that displays the values of a HeightmapSample.
The following default Layout settings are defined for LightingGui objects:
Public / Attributes
LayerMask
The mask of heightmap layers this object uses.
These heightmap layers store actual terrain data:
-
HeightmapLayer.Elevation:
The terrain elevation, measured upwards from the base geometry (usually an ellipsoid). See VerticalRange. -
HeightmapLayer.Displacement:
The terrain displacement, measured upwards from the terrain geometry. See VerticalRange. -
HeightmapLayer.Texture:
A 64-bit ARGB color value that describes the terrain surface (e.g. surface reflectance). See Colors. -
HeightmapLayer.Material:
A 64-bit ARGB material token that describes the terrain surface (e.g. land cover). See MaterialToken.
Missing data is represented with the HeightmapLayer.Coverage layer. It describes how much information is present in a stored heightmap sample. The semantics of coverage with heightmap samples is the same as premultiplied alpha with texture samples. A LayerMask without HeightmapLayer.Coverage means that all samples are fully solid. If a LayerMask contains the HeightmapLayer.Coverage layer but no others, the coverage values are used to represent 'holes' in the terrain (e.g. creating holes for caves, tunnels, etc.).
