PrimVar
Add the name of the primitive variable
Type
The type of the primitive variable, this must match the type you've chosen as the Variable:
- float
- float2
- color
- point
- vector
- normal
Coordinate System
By default, the shader uses the current coordinate system. Possible coordinate systems include world, object, or a user-defined coordinate system.
Output Parameters
result RGB
The result as a color.
result F
The result as a float.
result F3
