Description: The RenderMan Interface is similar to other graphics packages in that it maintains a graphics state. The graphics state contains all the information needed to render a geometric primitive. RenderMan Interface commands either change the graphics state or render a geometric primitive. The graphics state is divided into two parts: a global state that remains constant while rendering a single image or frame of a sequence, and a current state that changes from geometric primitive to geometric primiti ...

Description: The graphics state has various options that must be set before rendering a frame. The complete set of options includes: a description of the camera, which controls all aspects of the imaging process (including the camera position and the type of projection); a description of the display, which controls the output of pixels (including the types of images desired, how they are quantized and which device they are displayed on); as well as renderer run-time controls (such as the hidden surface algor ...

Description: Rendering programs may have additional implementation-specific options that control parameters that affect either their performance or operation. These are all set by the following procedure. In addition, a user can specify rendering option by pre-pending the string "user:" onto the option name. While these options are not expected to have any meaning to a renderer, user options should not be ignored. Rather, they must be tracked according to standard option scoping rules and made a ...
