Description

Retrieves the never traceable state of a specific FRED entity.

 

Syntax

neverTrace = GetNeverTraceable ( n )

 

Parameters

neverTrace (Boolean)

Returns the "Never traceable" state of the FRED entity.

 

n As Long

Node number of the FRED entity.

 

Remarks

This function retrieves the trimming state of a specific FRED entity.  If there is a problem, the function sets an error and returns False.

 

The "never traceable" flag is most useful for surfaces used for trimming only.  These surfaces generally are never to be raytraced.  If the flag is set to True, then the surface will not be rendered or raytraced under any circumstances, regardless of the setting of the standard "traceable" flag.  If the "never traceable" flag is set to False, then the standard "traceable" flag controls the traceable state of the surface.
