SchemeDT:Environment-map

From DocR23

Action

An environment-map is an entity used for rendering of reflections.

It consists conceptually of a six-sided cube of image data that is wrapped around reflective objects during rendering. It is created from image data files, from rendering the model, or from a procedure that generates image data. Environment-mapped reflections are not visible in the Basic Rendering Component, but are supported for compatibility with the Advanced Rendering Component. environment-map objects are saved and restored as part of the model.
