IMcLensMedium Property

Property Value

Type: String

Gets or sets the immersion medium used with this lens. In most cases, a lens is designed to work with a specified medium, such as air or oil. The RefractiveIndex can be set by specifying a known medium, from the following common mediums: Air, Water, Glycerin or Oil. The Medium can also automatically be determined if the RefractiveIndex is set to one of the corresponding refractive indexes: 1.0, 1.3333, 1.47, or 1.515. The Medium will return �Custom� if the current refractive index cannot be matched to one of the listed indexes. The RefractiveIndex will not be set automatically if the Medium is set to �Custom� or to a medium not included in the list below. Note that if you want to indicate one of the common mediums listed above, but with a non-standard refractive index, you should set this property first to the desired medium, and then set the refractive index to the desired value.
