visibleForPathsFromEye

bool G3D::Surface::ExpressiveLightScatteringProperties::visibleForPathsFromEye

If false, do not appear in paths traced backwards from the eye.

This obviously depends on the algorithm employed for rendering, but as a general hint can be taken to mean "is this object visible in coherent images", e.g., reflections, refraction, and primary rays.
