Hi,

I'm facing a problem which I cant get fixed through the API and I would like to request adding a property to the xpCylinderObject

I'm placing a bunch of cylinders at various positions on a 3D-plane, but I'm having an issue with the depthwrites. My left tube end (which is actually my camera-facing end) is not being displayed properly which results in a hole in my material.

The only way I can solve this is to Enable the DepthWrites in the Rendering-tab of the cylinder.

However I can't do this manually because there can be hundreds of cylinders in the scene. But through the API the DepthWrites-property is not exposed unlike the CullingMode-property.

Is there a way to add the DepthWrite property to the Cylinder-object? It it currently only available for the xpMaterial.

Thank you,
Kenneth

Hi Kenneth, we can add the depth writes property for you.

This has been added to XPression beta version 6.7 3765:

• [note] the API has changed
• [implemented] the API can now get/set the Depth Writes property of the cylinder object
