collada.scene.MaterialNode

class collada.scene.MaterialNode(symbol, target, inputs, xmlnode=None)

Represents a material being instantiated in a scene, as defined in the collada <instance_material> tag.

__init__(symbol, target, inputs, xmlnode=None)

Creates a material node

Parameters:

• symbol (str) – The symbol within a geometry this material should be bound to

• target (collada.material.Material) – The material object being bound to

• inputs (list) – A list of tuples of the form (semantic, input_semantic, set) mapping texcoords or other inputs to material input channels, e.g. ('TEX0', 'TEXCOORD', '0') would map the effect parameter 'TEX0' to the 'TEXCOORD' semantic of the geometry, using texture coordinate set 0.

• xmlnode – When loaded, the xmlnode it comes from

Methods

__init__(symbol, target, inputs[, xmlnode])	Creates a material node
load(collada, node)	Load and return a class instance from an XML node.
objects()	Iterate through all objects under this node that match tipo.
save()	Saves the material node back to xmlnode

Attributes

xmlnode	ElementTree representation of the material node.
symbol	The symbol within a geometry this material should be bound to
target	An object of type collada.material.Material representing the material object being bound to
inputs	A list of tuples of the form (semantic, input_semantic, set) mapping texcoords or other inputs to material input channels, e.g. ('TEX0', 'TEXCOORD', '0') would map the effect parameter 'TEX0' to the 'TEXCOORD' semantic of the geometry, using texture coordinate set 0.
