Some of the default options are settable through the 3delight.ini
initilization file. The renderer looks for it in four different locations in the following order:
- In 3Delight's installation directory, as specified by the
$DELIGHT
environment variable. - In the directories specified by the
$DELIGHT_CONF
environment variable (a colon separated list). - In user's home directory, as specified by the
$HOME
environment variable. It also looks for an.3delight.ini
file in the same directory. - Finally, the
3delight.ini
in the current directory. ← Do we need to keep this ???
If 3Delight encounters the file in more than one location, it uses the latest keys and values it finds. So that later options settings override former ones. This enables the user to have a site specific initialization file in the $DELIGHT
or $DELIGHT_CONF
directories and user specific settings in their home directory.
Each line in the configuration file is of the form "key value1 [value2 ... value_n]". The key being one of the recognized 3Delight configuration options as listed in the table below.
Key | Description |

The following text is the default 3delight.ini
file content (included in the 3Delight's installation directory):
