Lighting Properties
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Control aspects of the rendered mesh's lighting such as Ambient, Diffuse,
and Specular. These options only work if the ``lighting`` argument to
``add_mesh`` is ``True`` (it's ``True`` by default).

You can turn off all lighting for the given mesh by passing ``lighting=False``
to ``add_mesh``.

See the ``add_mesh`` docs for lighting options:
https://docs.pyvista.org/api/plotting/_autosummary/pyvista.Plotter.add_mesh.html

First, let's take a look at the mesh with default lighting conditions

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 26-28

    mesh.plot(cpos=cpos, show_scalar_bar=False)


.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 29-30

What about with no lighting?

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 30-32

.. code-block:: Python

    mesh.plot(..., cpos=cpos, show_scalar_bar=False)

Demonstration of the specular property

Feel free to adjust the specular value in the ``s`` variable.
