There is also a property set by the user to indicate what is the level
of quality desired. This level of quality can be checked in the predicate
like this :
<predicate>
<and>
<property>/sim/rendering/shader-effects</property>
<less-equal>
<value type="float">2.0</value>
<float-property>/sim/rendering/quality-level</float-property>
</less-equal>
<!-- other predicate conditions -->
</and>
</predicate>
The range of /sim/rendering/quality-level is [0..5]
* 2.0 is the threshold for relief mapping effects,
* 4.0 is the threshold for geometry shader usage.
A technique can consist of several passes. A pass is basically an Open
Scene Graph StateSet. Ultimately all OpenGL and OSG modes and state
