Libraries.Interface.Controls.Scenes.Items.Previews.ModelPreview Documentation

The ModelPreview class is an item only meant to visible in the editor that represents a Model in a 3D scene. This preview is used for both primitives and custom models. When the editor needs to load a preview it will make a transparent version of the model that user can place anywhere in the scene and when the preview is confirmed this class can take the given blueprint and make a model that can persist in the scene.

// through the item's center and pointing to the right.
axis:Set(1, 0, 0)
myItem:RotateChildren(axis, 90)

// This will rotate the item's children 45 degrees clockwise around a ray passing 
// through the item's center and pointing straight down.
axis:Set(0, -1, 0)
myItem:RotateChildren(axis, 45)

// This will rotate the item's children 60 degrees counter-clockwise around a ray  
// passing through the item's center and pointing to the right.
axis:Set(1, 0, 0)
myItem:RotateChildren(axis, -60)

// relative to each other. Since this vector is set with a larger x
// value than y value, this ray points mostly left and a little upwards.
axis:Set(3, 1, 0)
myItem:Rotate(axis, 45)

// Because the values are relative to each other, this code has the same
// effect as the last Rotate call we used (because the x value is still
// 3 times larger than the y value).
axis:Set(9, 3, 0)
myItem:RotateChildren(axis, 45)

Rotate(Libraries.Compute.Vector3 vector, number degrees, boolean rotateChildren)

This action will rotate the Item3D about an axis represented by the given Vector3. The item will be rotated by an angle given in degrees. If the boolean parameter is set to true, and if the Item3D has any children items, they will also be rotated, and their offsets will be adjusted to maintain the same relative position to this item. If the boolean parameter is set to false, only this Item will be rotated.

Parameters

  • Libraries.Compute.Vector3: The axis or ray to rotate around.
  • number degrees: How many degrees to rotate (clockwise).
  • boolean rotateChildren: Whether or not children should be rotated around the parent.

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item3D

Item3D myItem
Vector3 vector
vector:Set(5, 2, 1)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 90, false)

Rotate(Libraries.Compute.Vector3 vector, number degrees)

This action will rotate the Item3D about an axis represented by the given Vector3. The axis is essentially a ray that starts at the center of the item and points outward. The item will then rotate clockwise around that ray. The item will be rotated by an angle given in degrees. If the Item3D has any children items, they will also be rotated, and their offsets will be adjusted to maintain the same relative position to this item.

Parameters

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item3D
use Libraries.Compute.Vector3
Item3D myItem
Vector3 vector

// This will rotate the item 90 degrees clockwise around a ray passing 
// through the item's center and pointing to the right.
vector:Set(1, 0, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 90)

// This will rotate the item 45 degrees clockwise around a ray passing 
// through the item's center and pointing straight down.
vector:Set(0, -1, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 45)

// This will rotate the item 60 degrees counter-clockwise around a ray  
// passing through the item's center and pointing to the right.
vector:Set(1, 0, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, -60)

// When setting the vector with multiple non-zero values, each value is
// relative to each other. Since this vector is set with a larger x
// value than y value, this ray points mostly left and a little upwards.
vector:Set(3, 1, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 45)

// Because the values are relative to each other, this code has the same
// effect as the last Rotate call we used (because the x value is still
// 3 times larger than the y value).
vector:Set(9, 3, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 45)

Rotate(number rotateX, number rotateY, number rotateZ, number degrees)

// relative to each other. Since this vector is set with a larger x
// value than y value, this ray points mostly left and a little upwards.
myItem:Rotate(3, 1, 0, 45)

// Because the values are relative to each other, this code has the same
// effect as the last Rotate call we used (because the x value is still
// 3 times larger than the y value).

SetAcceptsMouseInput(boolean accepts)

This action sets whether or not this Item accepts mouse input. If set to true, this will intercept incoming mouse events, triggering any related MouseListeners and InputSets and preventing the mouse event from propagating to other Items on the Layer. The default value is true.

Parameters

  • boolean accepts: True to set this Item to receive mouse events, or false to ignore them.

SetAccessibilityCode(integer newAccessibilityCode)

This action changes the accessibility code for this Item. This should be done with care because setting the accessiblity code to the incorrect type can cause accessibility to stop functioning or, in some cases, cause the program to crash.

Parameters

SetAccessibilityRoleDescription(text newRoleDescription)

This action sets a custom accessibility role description for this item. This should only be done if there is not a standard accessibility code for the type of item being implemented. If the item behaves very similarly to a standard control type, then set the accessibility code to that standard type while also setting the role description. For example, if implementing an item that extends Control, is keyboard focusable, and responds to activation via both mouse clicks and the Space key, like a button, but it shouldn't be described as a button, then set the accessibility code to BUTTON and the custom role description to whatever is appropriate. If there isn't a suitable accessibility code, or if in doubt, set the accessibility code to CUSTOM.

Parameters

  • text newRoleDescription: the new custom role description for this Item.

This action sets the orientation of the 3D object using yaw, pitch, and roll angles in degrees. The yaw describes how far the camera is rotated along the X/Z axis. It effectively controls how the camera turns left and right. A positive value will rotate the camera clockwise (typically to the right). The pitch describes how far the camera is angled up or down. The pitch value should typically be between -90 and 90 degrees. Larger values will cause the camera to look in the opposite direction specified by the yaw value. For pitch values between -90 and 90, positive values angle the camera upwards, and negative values angle it downwards. The roll describes how the top of the camera is oriented. A roll value of 0 will angle the camera so the top of the camera points upward, towards the positive Y axis. A positive roll value "twists" the camera clockwise, and a negative value will twist it counter-clockwise.

Parameters

  • number newYaw: The yaw angle, measured in degrees.
  • number newPitch: The pitch angle, measured in degrees.
  • number newRoll: The roll angle, measured in degrees.

SetRotation(Libraries.Compute.Vector3 rotation)

This action sets the orientation of the 3D object using yaw, pitch, and roll angles set in a Vector3. The yaw describes how far the camera is rotated along the X/Z axis.

The pitch value should typically be between -90 and 90 degrees. Larger values will cause the camera to look in the opposite direction specified by the yaw value. For pitch values between -90 and 90, positive values angle the camera upwards, and negative values angle it downwards. The roll describes how the top of the camera is oriented. A roll value of 0 will angle the camera so the top of the camera points upward, towards the positive Y axis. A positive roll value "twists" the camera clockwise, and a negative value will twist it counter-clockwise.

Parameters

// This will rotate the item 45 degrees clockwise around a ray passing 
// through the item's center and pointing straight down.
vector:Set(0, -1, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 45)

// This will rotate the item 60 degrees counter-clockwise around a ray  
// passing through the item's center and pointing to the right.
vector:Set(1, 0, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, -60)

// When setting the vector with multiple non-zero values, each value is
// relative to each other. Since this vector is set with a larger x
// value than y value, this ray points mostly left and a little upwards.
vector:Set(3, 1, 0)
myItem:Rotate(vector, 45)

// Because the values are relative to each other, this code has the same
// effect as the last Rotate call we used (because the x value is still

This action will rotate the Item3D about an axis. The axis is essentially a ray that starts at the center of the item and points outward. The item will then rotate clockwise around that ray. The ray is defined using three numbers, representing which way it points on the x, y, and z planes, respectively. The item will be rotated by an angle given in degrees. If the Item3D has any children items, they will also be rotated, and their offsets will be adjusted to maintain the same relative position to this item.

Parameters

  • number scale
  • boolean scaleChildren

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item3D
Item3D myItem

// This will rotate the item 90 degrees clockwise around a ray passing 
// through the item's center and pointing to the right.
myItem:Rotate(1, 0, 0, 90)

// This will rotate the item 45 degrees clockwise around a ray passing 
// through the item's center and pointing straight down.
myItem:Rotate(0, -1, 0, 45)

// This will rotate the item 60 degrees counter-clockwise around a ray  
// passing through the item's center and pointing to the right.
myItem:Rotate(1, 0, 0, -60)

// When setting the ray with multiple non-zero values, each value is
// relative to each other. Since this vector is set with a larger x
// value than y value, this ray points mostly left and a little upwards.
myItem:Rotate(3, 1, 0, 45)

// Because the values are relative to each other, this code has the same
// effect as the last Rotate call we used (because the x value is still
// 3 times larger than the y value).
myItem:Rotate(9, 3, 0, 45)

SetScaleZ(number scale)

This action will rotate the Item3D about an axis represented by the first 3 given number values. The item will be rotated by an angle given in degrees. If the boolean parameter is set to true, and if the Item3D has any children items, they will also be rotated, and their offsets will be adjusted to maintain the same relative position to this item. If the boolean parameter is set to false, only this Item will be rotated.

Parameters

  • number scale

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item3D
Item3D myItem
myItem:Rotate(5, 2, 1, 90, false)

SetSceneEditor(Libraries.Interface.Controls.Scenes.SceneEditor editor)

Sets the SceneEditor object that this item is a part of.

Parameters

        mint:SetColor(0.5, 1, 0.75, 1)
 
        cube:LoadBox(2, 2, 2, mint)
        Add(cube)

        BoundingBox box = cube:CalculateBoundingBox()
        output "The dimensions of the bounding box are: " + box:GetWidth() + ", " + box:GetHeight() + ", " + box:GetDepth()
    end
end

SetShaderProgram(Libraries.Game.Graphics.Shaders.ShaderProgram shaderProgram)

ExtendBoundingBox will expand the bounds of the given BoundingBox to fully encapsulate the bounds of this Model.

    end
end

SetShape(Libraries.Game.Collision.Shapes.CollisionShape3D shape)

This action will find all of the Light objects contained in the children hierarchy of this Item3D and add it to the end of the given array. If this object is a Light, it will be added to the array first before adding any descendents where are Lights.

Show()

This action is used to indicate that an Item and all Items that were added to it should be visible on the screen. Note that the Item class on its own cannot be drawn on the screen, but classes that inherit from it such as Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable can be. By default, Items are considered visible.

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item

Item item
item:Show()

This action sets the X coordinate of the Item.

Parameters

  • boolean flag

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item3D

myItem:SetX(35.0)

SynchronizeNodes()

This action returns the current Layer3D that this Item3D is a part of in the Game libraries.

Update(number secondsSinceUpdate)

This action updates the item. It takes a number parameter that should indicate how many seconds have passed since the last time this action was called. This action does nothing in the Item class, but any class that inherits from Item may override it.

Parameters

  • number secondsSinceUpdate: The number of seconds that have passed since the last time Update was called.

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item
use Libraries.System.DateTime

class Main is Item

    action Main
        // We'll use a DateTime object to count seconds.
        DateTime time
        number currentTime = time:GetEpochTime()
        number newTime = 0

        repeat while GetX() < 300
            // Check what the time is now.
            newTime = time:GetEpochTime()

            // Calculate how many seconds have passed, then call Update.
            Update( (newTime - currentTime)/1000 )

            // Store the old time.
            currentTime = newTime
        end
    end

    // Our update action will move our Item to the right at 200 units a second.
    action Update(number secondsSinceUpdate)
        SetX(GetX() + 200 * secondsSinceUpdate)
    end
end

UpdateAll(number secondsSinceUpdate)

This action calls the Update action on this Item and all Items that have been added to this item with the Add action.

Parameters
