Py5Graphics.light_specular()

Py5Graphics.light_specular()#

Sets the specular color for lights.

Description#

Sets the specular color for lights. Like Py5Graphics.fill(), it affects only the elements which are created after it in the code. Specular refers to light which bounces off a surface in a preferred direction (rather than bouncing in all directions like a diffuse light) and is used for creating highlights. The specular quality of a light interacts with the specular material qualities set through the Py5Graphics.specular() and Py5Graphics.shininess() functions.

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

Underlying Processing method: PGraphics.lightSpecular
