GDL detect Physically Based Rendering in 3D

Mario Sacco
Expert

Is there a command in GDL to detect if the 3d window is on Physically Based Rendering in 3D? 

I need it to change some setting in our objects until the new option is optimized.

 

Thank you

I may be mistaken, but I don't think GDL can determine any of the 3D window engines being used (vectorial, hardware accelerated or physically based).

I think the best an object can do is determine if it is being viewed in 3D, not how it is being viewed.

You can create Model View Options for your library and create renderings using a different MVO.
