The C.O.F.F.E.E. Editor’s status line.
Enter a COFFEE script into the Script box or click the C.O.F.F.E.E. Editor button and enter the script into CINEMA 4D’s COFFEE script editor.
This acts as a quick reference to look up the names of the commands. It has no other purpose. It does not insert commands.
sPosition [Real]
Position along a line in pixels (screen space).
sNormalisedP [Real]
Normalised position along a line (0 to 1).
ToLine [Real]
Distance to the line from the current render point (which is within the line’s thickness). Values range from - Thickness to 0 to Thickness.
Thickness [Real]
The line’s thickness as set on the [Thickness] tab.
StrokeLength [Real]
The total length of the stroke being rendered.
ScnPnt [Vector]
The render point in screen space (with Z).
LineOff [Real]
The offset (0 to 1) along the line segment being rendered.
wPnt [Vector]
The world coordinates for the point being rendered.
Time [Real]
Current document time in seconds.
Frame [Real]
Current frame.
FPS [Long]
Frames per second.
LineStart [Vector]
The screen space coordinates for the start of the line (LineOff = 0 at the LineStart, 1 at LineEnd).
LineEnd [Vector]
Screen space for line segment’s end point.
JoinAngleA [Real]
Join angle to the line segment at LineStart (if available, or 0.0).
JoinAngleB [Real]
Join angle (0 to 2*pi) to the line segment at LineEnd.
LineNormal [Vector]
The line normal in screen space (2D, Z=0).
EdgeNormal [Vector]
The normal from the edge that created the original line segment.
LinePosA [Real]
The line segment’s position along the stroke in pixels (A means LineStart, B LineEnd).
LinePosB [Real]
The position along the stroke in screen space for the line segment being rendered.
PntA [Long]
The index number of the object point or spline point that created the start of the line segment (or -1 if not available).
PntB [Long]
The point index that created the LineEnd (or -1).
PolyA [Long]
The polygon index that created the line segment (or -1 if not available, like a spline).
PolyB [Long]
The polygon index that shared the edge (or -1 if not available).
RayBits [Long]
This passes in the raybits from the CINEMA 4D render. See the CINEMA 4D SDK.
CosC [Real]
The angle between the ray and normal on the surface.
Normal [Vector]
The normal from the surface (if PolyHit is not 0, which says it hit an object).
BumpNormal [Vector]
Bumped surface normal.
Dist [Real]
Distance to the point hit on the surface (if one was hit).
PolyHit [Long]
Really only useful to know if an object was hit by a ray, which means the value is not 0.
RayPos [Vector]
World position for the ray’s starting point.
RayDirn [Vector]
Direction of the ray (the ray is from CINEMA 4D).
SurfPnt [Vector]
The world coordinates for the point hit (if one was hit).
RendLeft [Real]
The render image left pixel.
RendTop [Real]
Render top pixel (left, top usually 0, but not always, e.g render region).
RendRight [Real]
Right pixel (width = right-left+1)..
RendBottom [Real]
Bottom pixel (height = bottom - top +1).
ObjLeft [Real]
Object’s left screen bounds pixel. This is for the object that the line came from. This is not necessarily the object hit by the CINEMA 4D ray.
ObjTop [Real]
Object’s top screen bounds pixel.
ObjRight [Real]
Object’s right screen bounds pixel.
ObjBottom [Real]
Object’s bottom screen bounds pixel.
Color [Vector]
The color set in the [Color] tab (Color parameter only).
