PrimitivesSortOrder	The order in which primitives are sorted before rendering.
RasterBand	Common band types that may be contained within a raster dataset. Each band can be thought of as a set of values, which are most commonly associated with colors when the raster represents an image…
RasterFlipAxis	The axis on which a raster will be flipped.
RasterFormat	Common raster band layouts that may be contained within a raster dataset. Each pixel of the raster will contain the bands defined by the layout in the specified order. A typical color raster image will have an rgbraster format.
RasterOrientation	The vertical orientation of the raster.
RasterSharpenMethod	The method used to sharpen a raster.
RasterType	The type of data contained within each band of a raster dataset.
RefreshRate	The rate at which animation frames will occur.
RendererShadingModel	Identifies which shade model to use. The primitive can be drawn with a single color or multiple colors.
RenderPass	Describes when a primitive will be rendered. Some primitives need to be rendered during or at a certain time. For example, translucent primitives need to be rendered after opaque primitives to allow proper blending…
RenderPassHint	An optimization hint optionally provided to a primitive’sSet method to enhance performance when per-position colors are used.
ScreenOverlayOrigin	Specify the origin of a screen overlay, as well as the direction of the horizontal and vertical axes. The origin specifies both the origin in the parent overlay’s coordinate system and the origin within the overlay itself that is positioned.
ScreenOverlayPinningOrigin	Specify the origin of the pinning position of the screen overlay, as well as the direction of the horizontal and vertical axes for that pinning position. The pinning origin specifies the origin of the pinning position in the overlay’s coordinate system.
ScreenOverlayUnit	A unit specifying how a screen overlay is sized and positioned relative to its parent.
SetHint	An optimization hint optionally provided to primitives to enhance performance for static or dynamic primitives. See the Set Hint Performance Overview for selecting an appropriate value.
SnapshotFileFormat	When using camera snapshot or camera video recording to save a snapshot to a file, this specifies the file format.
StereoProjectionMode	The stereoscopic projection mode used for the left and right eye scenes.
StereoscopicDisplayMode	The stereoscopic display mode. To use a particular stereoscopic display mode, ensure that your system supports the feature and that it is enabled.
SurfaceMeshRenderingMethod	Rendering methods available for use by the surface mesh primitive. Different methods may have different performance characteristics and require different video card support. When in doubt, use Automatic.
TextureFormat	The format of individual texels in a texture.
TextureWrap	Determine how to handle textures coordinates that fall outside of the range [0, 1].
VideoFormat	When using camera video recording to record a video, this specifies the file format.
VideoPlayback	Specify how the video stream will playback. When the playback is set to real time, the video will playback in real time…
Visibility	Result of a visibility test, such as testing if a sphere intersects a frustum.
WindingOrder	Specify the order for positions or front facing triangles. Winding order is important for triangulation and backface culling.

Description

Access and manipulate visual elements in STK.

These include STK globe terrain and imagery, camera control, 3D models, triangle meshes, surface polygons and polylines, text batches, screen overlays, scene lighting, and raster and projection streaming. STK Graphics is available in STK, using UI plugins, as well as in STK Engine custom applications.
