Description

Shader scripts used for all rendering.

Most of the advanced rendering is controlled via Material class. Shader class is mostly used just to check whether a shader can run on the user's hardware (isSupported property), setting up global shader properties and keywords, and finding shaders by name (Find method).

See Also: Material class, Materials, ShaderLab documentation.

Static Properties

enabledGlobalKeywordsAn array containing the global shader keywords that are currently enabled.
globalKeywordsAn array containing the global shader keywords that currently exist. This includes enabled and disabled global shader keywords.
globalMaximumLODShader LOD level for all shaders.
globalRenderPipelineRender pipeline currently in use.
maximumChunksOverrideSets the limit on the number of shader variant chunks Unity loads and keeps in memory.

Properties

isSupportedCan this shader run on the end-users graphics card? (Read Only)
keywordSpaceThe local keyword space of this shader.
maximumLODShader LOD level for this shader.
passCountReturns the number of shader passes on the active SubShader.
renderQueueRender queue of this shader. (Read Only)
subshaderCountReturns the number of SubShaders in this shader.
