SetEyeDomeLightingStrength Method (LasDatasetLayer)

In This Topic

Sets the Eye Dome Lighting (EDL) strength value. The EDL strength adjusts the intensity of the resulting effects. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
C#

Public Sub SetEyeDomeLightingStrength( _
   ByVal value As Double _
)

public void SetEyeDomeLightingStrength( 
   double value
)

Parameters

value: The eye dome lighting strength. The value must be between 0 and 100 inclusive.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
ArcGIS.Core.CalledOnWrongThreadException	This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run
System.ArgumentException	The strength value must be between 0 and 100 inclusive.

Remarks

The EDL strength value is a percentage (that is a value between 0 and 100). EDL is disabled when the value is set to 0. The default value is 50. A larger value will give you a stronger perception of the depth. Ensure that IsEyeDomeLightingEnabled is true for this value to have effect.

Example

Eye Dome Lighting

{
  // Note: Needs QueuedTask to run
  {
    // get current EDL settings
    bool isEnabled = lasDatasetLayer.IsEyeDomeLightingEnabled;
    var radius = lasDatasetLayer.EyeDomeLightingRadius;
    var strength = lasDatasetLayer.EyeDomeLightingStrength;

    // set EDL values
    lasDatasetLayer.SetEyeDomeLightingEnabled(true);
    lasDatasetLayer.SetEyeDomeLightingStrength(65.0);
    lasDatasetLayer.SetEyeDomeLightingRadius(2.0);
  }
}
