AttributeElement	output_element_type = AttributeElement::Indexed
	Output element type. Can be either Corner or Indexed.

Detailed Description

Option struct for computing tangent and bitangent vectors.

Member Data Documentation

uv_attribute_name

std::string_view uv_attribute_name = ""

UV attribute name used to orient the BTN frame.

Must be an indexed attribute. If left empty, the first indexed UV attribute is used.

normal_attribute_name

std::string_view normal_attribute_name = ""

Normal attribute name used to compute the BTN frame.

Must be an indexed attribute. The output tangent/bitangent vectors are projected into the plane orthogonal to the normal vector at each triangle corner. If the output element type is set to Indexed, the indices in the provided normal attribute are also used to aggregate BTN frames between neighboring triangles. If left empty, the first indexed Normal attribute is used.
