Introduction

Welcome to the POV-Ray for PLATFORM version 3.7 documentation.

This content is divided into three major sections. A platform specific section, a tutorial section, and a reference section. Returning users will notice the shift from a next / previous presentation to one that is more context based. Additionally the section numbering that used to appear in the table of contents, is now only in the content. To aid in this transition, when hovering over a fixed panel entry, the section numbers will appear as a hint. The links at the top of the content pane also provide hints!

New to POV-Ray? You'd most likely want to begin with the tutorial section. Need to locate something quickly? The list of identifiers and keywords is a good place to start. See the changes and new features summary for what's new with this release.

Enjoy!
