.SS DESCRIPTION
.PP
The \f[C]rtcSetGeometryDisplacementFunction\f[] function registers a
displacement callback function (\f[C]displacement\f[] argument) for the
specified subdivision geometry (\f[C]geometry\f[] argument).
.PP
Only a single callback function can be registered per geometry, and
further invocations overwrite the previously set callback function.
Passing \f[C]NULL\f[] as function pointer disables the registered
callback function.
.PP
The registered displacement callback function is invoked to displace
points on the subdivision geometry during spatial acceleration structure
construction, during the \f[C]rtcCommitScene\f[] call.
.PP
The callback function of type \f[C]RTCDisplacementFunctionN\f[] is
invoked with a number of arguments stored inside the
\f[C]RTCDisplacementFunctionNArguments\f[] structure.
The provided user data pointer of the geometry (\f[C]geometryUserPtr\f[]
member) can be used to point to the application\[aq]s representation of
the subdivision mesh.
A number \f[C]N\f[] of points to displace are specified in a structure
of array layout.
For each point to displace, the local patch UV coordinates (\f[C]u\f[]
and \f[C]v\f[] arrays), the normalized geometry normal (\f[C]Ng_x\f[],
\f[C]Ng_y\f[], and \f[C]Ng_z\f[] arrays), and the position
(\f[C]P_x\f[], \f[C]P_y\f[], and \f[C]P_z\f[] arrays) are provided.
The task of the displacement function is to use this information and
change the position data.
.PP
The geometry handle (\f[C]geometry\f[] member) and primitive ID
(\f[C]primID\f[] member) of the patch to displace are additionally
provided as well as the time step \f[C]timeStep\f[], which can be
important if the displacement is time\-dependent and motion blur is
used.
.PP
All passed arrays must be aligned to 64 bytes and properly padded to
make wide vector processing inside the displacement function easily
possible.
.PP
Also see tutorial [Displacement Geometry] for an example of how to use
the displacement mapping functions.
.SS EXIT STATUS
.PP
On failure an error code is set that can be queried using
\f[C]rtcGetDeviceError\f[].
