Layer config

The layer configuration is a combination of reference tables that can be used for fragment lighting calculations.

For details on lookup tables, click here.

Note: When using reference tables, you must set the corresponding layer configuration.
If you are using an input angle CP, then set the layer configuration to Layer config 7.
If the input angle CP is being used with any other layer configuration it will not be applied to the preview.

Note: The material panel standard mode and advanced mode currently mention "layer configuration numbers" and "configuration types", but these are both the same things. The terminology will be made consistent in a future release.

Layer Configurations and Lookup Tables

Unsupported lookup tables in a layer configuration will not have any effect on writing. The table below matches layer configurations and lookup tables.
