### Inputs

* #### name

Text to set the name for the modifier and to be incorporated into a unique modifier identifier.

* #### trans \[Required]

A number between 0 and 1 for the glass modifier transmittance. This transmittance will be the same for the red, green and blue channels.

* #### refract

Index of refraction. Typical values are 1.52 for float glass and 1.4 for ETFE. If None, Radiance will default to using 1.52 for glass (Default: None).

### Outputs

* #### modifier

A glass modifier that can be assigned to a Honeybee geometry or Modifier Sets.
