    Properties

    asset: VFXAsset

    The VFXAsset that describes the VFX simulation.

    emitting: boolean

    Enables or disables emission logic for emitters on this component.

    enabled: boolean

    If disabled, the Component will stop enacting its behavior.

    extentsTarget: ScreenTransform

    When a ScreenTransform is present on this SceneObject, and extentsTarget is a child of this SceneObject, extentsTarget will be repositioned to match the exact area this MeshVisual is being rendered. Very useful for Image and Text components.

    horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment

    When a ScreenTransform is attached to the same SceneObject, this controls how the mesh will be positioned horizontally depending on stretchMode.

    meshShadowMode: MeshShadowMode

    None = 0, Caster = 1, Receiver = 2

    sceneObject: SceneObject

    The scene object this component is on.

    shadowColor: vec4

    Affects the color of shadows being cast by this MeshVisual. The color of the cast shadow is a mix between shadowColor and the material's base texture color. The alpha value of shadowColor controls the mixing of these two colors, with 0 = shadowColor and 1 = shadowColor * textureColor.

    shadowDensity: number

    Density of shadows cast by this MeshVisual.

    stretchMode: StretchMode

    When a ScreenTransform is attached to the same SceneObject, this controls how the mesh will be stretched relative to the ScreenTransform's boundaries.

    uniqueIdentifier: string
    verticalAlignment: VerticalAlignment

    When a ScreenTransform is attached to the same SceneObject, this controls how the mesh will be positioned vertically depending on stretchMode.

    Methods

    • Clear the VFX system.

      Returns void

    • Returns true if the object matches or derives from the passed in type.

      Parameters

      • type: string

      Returns boolean

    • Returns true if this object is the same as other. Useful for checking if two references point to the same thing.

      Parameters

      Returns boolean

    • Restart the VFX system.

      Returns void

    • Sets the order of this Visual in the render queue.

      Parameters

      • value: number

      Returns void

    • Projects screen positions from camera's view onto the mesh's UVs. If the MeshVisual's material uses the same texture as the camera input, the MeshVisual will look identical to the part of the screen it covers.

      Parameters

      Returns void
