hi,
I want to find out the shading color of a vertex or any point of a polygon in my VideoPost Effect. How can I do that?
I want to test it with GetSurfaceData but I do not if the point for this function must be in local, global or camera space. And what means the ray object exactly and that values?

TraceColor should give you the needed information that you can access during rendering in the VolumeData. (there is also a TraceColorDirect or similar, see docs)
