Libraries.Interface.Item Documentation

The Item class represents any object that has a position (such as x and y coordinates) and dimensions (e.g. width and height). Note that because Item contains blueprint actions, it can't be used directly. Users should use classes that inherit from Item, such as Item2D, Item3D, Drawable, or Model.

BeginCollision(Libraries.Interface.Item item)

This action is used to indicate that two items have just begun colliding. When two Items collide, the BeginCollision action should be called on both of them, with the other item passed as a parameter to the action. Note that this action does nothing by default, but classes that inherit from Item may override it.

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Parameters

Return

integer: The Compare result, Smaller, Equal, or Larger.

Example

Object o
Object t
integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

Dispose()

This action is used to free up any additional memory that is being used by this Item for purposes such as graphics. Note that the Item class doesn't have any extra memory that needs to be released with this action, but some classes which inherit from Item, such as Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable, do.

DisposeAll()

This action is used to call Dispose on this Item and on the entire children hierarchy of this Item.

DisposeChildren()

This action is used to call Dispose on the entire children hierarchy of this Item. This will not call Dispose on this Item.

Empty()

This action will remove all Items from this Item's children hierarchy. Note that this will not empty the hierarchies of the contained Items.

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item

Item parentItem
Item child1
Item child2
Item grandchild
parentItem:Add(child1)
parentItem:Add(child2)
child1:Add(grandChild)
parentItem:Empty()

EmptyAll()

This action will call Empty on the entire children hierarchy of this item, and then empty this item as well.

EmptyChildren()

This action is used to call Empty on all children contained in this item's children hierarchy. This will not empty the children of this item.

Equals(Libraries.Language.Object object)

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Parameters

Return

boolean: True if the hash codes are equal and false if they are not equal.

Example

Parameters

Example

use Libraries.Interface.Item

Item collider1
Item collider2
collider1:FinishCollision(collider2)

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

  • integer newAccessibilityCode: the new accessibility code for this Item.

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.

SetDescription(text newDescription)
