SpecularMaterial.SpecularPower Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value that specifies the degree to which a material applied to a 3-D model reflects the lighting model as shine.

public:
 property double SpecularPower { double get(); void set(double value); };
public double SpecularPower { get; set; }
member this.SpecularPower : double with get, set
Public Property SpecularPower As Double

Property Value

Relative contribution, for a material applied as a 2-D brush to a 3-D model, of the specular component of the lighting model.

Examples

The following example creates an instance of SpecularMaterial and sets this property.

<MaterialGroup x:Key="LeavesMaterial1">
  <DiffuseMaterial>
    <DiffuseMaterial.Brush>
      <ImageBrush Stretch="UniformToFill" ImageSource="sample_images\leaves_closeup.png" TileMode="None" ViewportUnits="Absolute" Viewport="0 0 1 1" AlignmentX="Left" AlignmentY="Top" Opacity="1.000000" />
    </DiffuseMaterial.Brush>
  </DiffuseMaterial>
  <SpecularMaterial SpecularPower="85.3333">
    <SpecularMaterial.Brush>
      <SolidColorBrush Color="#FFFFFF" Opacity="1.000000"/>
    </SpecularMaterial.Brush>
  </SpecularMaterial>
</MaterialGroup>

Remarks

Specular lighting reproduces the appearance of surfaces that are shiny or tend to reflect highlights. This property indicates the relative "shininess" of the material applied to the model. A larger value for this property specifies greater size and sharpness of the shine reflected by the material.
