Py5Graphics.specular()

Sets the specular color of the materials used for shapes drawn to the Py5Graphics drawing surface, which sets the color of highlights.

Description

Sets the specular color of the materials used for shapes drawn to the Py5Graphics drawing surface, which sets the color of highlights. Specular refers to light which bounces off a surface in a preferred direction (rather than bouncing in all directions like a diffuse light). Use in combination with Py5Graphics.emissive(), Py5Graphics.ambient(), and Py5Graphics.shininess() to set the material properties of shapes.

This method is the same as specular() but linked to a Py5Graphics object. To see example code for how it can be used, see specular().

Underlying Processing method: PGraphics.specular
