Mandelbulb3D Main Window

Main Program

The core of Mandelbulb3D is known as the Main Program. It consists of the Main Window and three child windows: Formulas, Lighting, and Postprocess.

Main Window

The Main Window is composed of four areas:

• Image display
• Top Toolbar
• Side Panel
• Bottom toolbar

Main Program child windows

Three essential child windows make up the rest of the Mandelbulb3D Main Program. Information is automatically shared between these windows and the Main Window.

• Formulas window
• Lighting window
• Postprocess window

Tools and Plug-ins

Each of these windows performs essential functions, like a program within a program. Scene data must be sent back and forth between the Main window and the Plug-in or Tool window. Sometimes this is automatic, but often the user must click a button to transfer data between windows.
