X3dForWebAuthors.Chapter14Prototypes.MaterialModulatorPrototypeExpanded

public class MaterialModulatorPrototypeExpanded
extends Object

Provide example for expansion of a MaterialModulator as regular X3D nodes, rather than a ProtoDeclare/ProtoInstance combination. MaterialModulator mimics a Material node and modulates diffuseColor field as an animation effect.
