# rtcGetSceneFlags(3embree4)

### NAME

-

  ```
  rtcGetSceneFlags - returns the flags of the scene
  ```

### SYNOPSIS

-

  ```
  #include <embree4/rtcore.h>
  enum RTCSceneFlags rtcGetSceneFlags(RTCScene scene);
  ```

### DESCRIPTION

Queries the flags of a scene. This function can be useful when setting individual flags, e.g. to just set the robust mode without changing other flags the following way:

-

  ```
  RTCSceneFlags flags = rtcGetSceneFlags(scene);
  rtcSetSceneFlags(scene, RTC_SCENE_FLAG_ROBUST | flags);
  ```

### EXIT STATUS

On failure `RTC_SCENE_FLAG_NONE` is returned and an error code is set that can be queried using `rtcGetDeviceError`.
