ClipPlane

A clip plane is defined as a plane that generates two half-spaces. The effected geometry in the half-space that is defined as being outside the plane is removed from the rendered image as a result of a clipping operation.

SFBool enabled SFBool inputOutput TRUE Defines activation state of the clip plane.
SFBool on SFBool inputOutput TRUE Enables/disables this effector (e.g. light)
SFNode metadata SFNode inputOutput MetadataObject container for payload metadata inside MetadataSet element
SFVec4f plane SFVec4f inputOutput 0 1 0 0 The ClipPlane node specifies a single plane equation that will be used to clip the geometry. The plane field specifies a four-component plane equation that describes the inside and outside half space. The first three components are a normalized vector describing the direction of the plane's normal direction.
