Description Sets the data from a source with a Random String ray position type. Depending on the number of rays traced, it may be necessary to dimension ray index and ray counter variables as data type Huge_ instead of Long. Please see Multi-threaded Raytracing for more information.
Syntax SetSourcePosCharacters n, text, height, numRays
Parameters n As Long Node number of the source.
text As String The text string of characters defining the source.
height As Double The character height (system units).
numRays As Long (or Huge_) The number of rays per character.
Remarks This subroutine sets the data from a source with a Random String ray position type, i.e. a string of characters each holding the given number of randomly placed rays. If there is a problem the subroutine returns without modifying the source or setting an error.
