XFileGuid.MeshNormals Field (Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D)

Retrieves the globally unique identifier (GUID) for mesh normal templates.

Definition

Visual Basic	Public Shared MeshNormals As Guid
C#	public static Guid MeshNormals;
C++	public: static Guid MeshNormals;
JScript	public static var MeshNormals : Guid

Field Value

System.Guid
A Guid value that contains the GUID for mesh normal templates.

This field is read-only. 

Remarks

Mesh normal templates define normals for a mesh. The first array of vectors is the normal vectors themselves, and the second array is an array of indexes that specify which normals should be applied to a given face. The value of the nFaceNormals member should be equal to the number of faces in a mesh. The following is a MeshNormals template .

[C#]
template MeshNormals
{
    < F6F23F43-7686-11cf-8F52-0040333594A3 >
    DWORD nNormals;
    array Vector normals[nNormals];
    DWORD nFaceNormals;
    array MeshFace meshFaces[nFaceNormals];
}

Where:

• nNormals - Number of normals.
• array Vector normals[nNormals] - Array of normals. See Vector.
• nFaceNormals - Number of face normals.
• array MeshFace meshFaces[nFaceNormals] - Array of mesh face normals. For more information, see MeshFace.
