## Shape Node Properties

The following tabs are available in the Shape node properties:

- Node name
- Type

### Node name

The "Node name" tab sets the name of the Shape node.

The node name is displayed if the node is linked to the Name area. If it is not linked, then "Unknown" is displayed here. To change the node name, edit the node name that is displayed here. If you want to set a new node name for a node that is not linked to the Name area, simply delete "Unknown" and input the desired name. Conversely, if you want to delete the node name, simply delete the name that is displayed here.

The characters that can be used for node names are the ASCII characters "!" (0x21) to "~" (0x7e). Note that the name cannot contain a space nor any Japanese characters.

### Type

Use the "Type" tab to specify the shape type.

In "Alias" select one of the following alias processes:

- Perform anti-aliasing
- Perform reduced aliasing
- Clear the shape type

In "Z buffer," check the box if you want to perform Z buffering of the shape.

In "Culling," specify whether you want to perform back-face culling and front-face culling. Check both boxes, either box, or neither box, depending on what you want.
