## Faceforward
|
|
Return a vector pointing in the same direction as another
|
|
|
|
### Declaration
|
|
```glsl
|
|
float faceforward(float N, float I, float Nref)
|
|
vec2 faceforward(vec2 N, vec2 I, vec2 Nref)
|
|
vec3 faceforward(vec3 N, vec3 I, vec3 Nref)
|
|
vec4 faceforward(vec4 N, vec4 I, vec4 Nref)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
```N``` specifies the vector to orient.
|
|
|
|
```I``` specifies the incident vector.
|
|
|
|
```Nref``` specifies the reference vector.
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
```faceforward()``` orients a vector to point away from a surface as defined by its normal. ```If dot(Nref, I) < 0``` faceforward returns ```N```, otherwise it returns ```-N```.
