====== Maps ======

Some functions take map handles as arguments, including most of the heightfield effect functions. To access a map, we use the ''GetMap'' function, like so:

<code>
calc.HF.ClampMap <GetMap "HF"> -150.2 1224.6 true
</code>

The above code clamps the heightfield (retrieved by <GetMap "HF">) between an altitude of -150.2 metres and 1224.6 metres, and shows the progress bar whilst doing so (true).

By default, the following map are available:

^ Map name ^ What? ^
| "DM" | Design map |
| "HF" | Heightfield |
| "WM" | Water map |
| "WS" | Salinity map |
| "AM" | Attributes map |
| "TN" | Terrain normals |
| "SH" | Shadow map |
| "LM" | Light map |
| "SpecLM" | Specular light map |
| "TX" | Texture map |

<note tip>
More maps may be added by plugins, or by the user via the '//File->Import->Custom map layer//' or '//Layers->New map layer//' menu options.
