NeutralDensityFilter

Bases: Filter_Type

Represents the XML element NeutralDensityFilter.

An optical Filter is a device designed to selectively control the Wavelengths, color temperature, vibration direction, and/or intensity of the radiation which it transmits or reflects. This element refers to an optical Filter whose purpose is to attenuate the intensity of the transmitted Light independent of the Wavelength.

setNDType(value)

Sets the value of the NDType attribute.

This field refers to the general category of this Neutral Density Filter. Neutral Density Filters come in two general types. Those made of darkened glass that absorb light and those coated with a metal film that reflect light.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
value NDTYPE_Type

The value to set

required

getNDType()

Returns the value of the NDType attribute.

This field refers to the general category of this Neutral Density Filter. Neutral Density Filters come in two general types. Those made of darkened glass that absorb light and those coated with a metal film that reflect light.

Returns:

Type Description
NDTYPE_Type

The value of the attribute

resetNDType()

Resets the NDType attribute to an unset state.

This field refers to the general category of this Neutral Density Filter. Neutral Density Filters come in two general types. Those made of darkened glass that absorb light and those coated with a metal film that reflect light.

hasNDType()

Checks whether the optional NDType attribute is present.

This field refers to the general category of this Neutral Density Filter. Neutral Density Filters come in two general types. Those made of darkened glass that absorb light and those coated with a metal film that reflect light.

Returns:

Type Description
boolean

true if the optional attribute has been set, false otherwise
