Constructors

constructor

Properties

_bounds

_bounds: Bounds

The bounds object, this is used to calculate and store the bounds of the displayObject.

Protected _boundsID

_boundsID: number

Flags the cached bounds as dirty.

Protected _boundsRect

_boundsRect: Rectangle

Cache of this display-object's bounds-rectangle.

Protected _destroyed

_destroyed: boolean

If the object has been destroyed via destroy(). If true, it should not be used.

Protected _enabledFilters

_enabledFilters: Filter[]

Currently enabled filters.

Protected _height

_height: number

Protected _lastSortedIndex

_lastSortedIndex: number

Which index in the children array the display component was before the previous zIndex sort. Used by containers to help sort objects with the same zIndex, by using previous array index as the decider.

_localBounds

_localBounds: Bounds

Local bounds object, swapped with _bounds when using getLocalBounds().

Protected _localBoundsRect

_localBoundsRect: Rectangle

Cache of this display-object's local-bounds rectangle.

Protected _mask

_mask: Container<DisplayObject> | MaskData

The original, cached mask of the object.

_trackedPointers

_trackedPointers: {}

Type declaration

  • [x: number]: InteractionTrackingData

Protected _width

_width: number

Protected _zIndex

_zIndex: number

The zIndex of the displayObject. A higher value will mean it will be rendered on top of other displayObjects within the same container.

alpha

alpha: number

The opacity of the object.

animations

animations: Animation[] = []

The animations included in the model.

buttonMode

buttonMode: boolean

Readonly children

children: DisplayObject[]

The array of children of this container.

readonly

containerUpdateTransform

containerUpdateTransform: () => void

Type declaration

    • (): void
    • Returns void

cullArea

cullArea: Rectangle

If set, this shape is used for culling instead of the bounds of this object. It can improve the culling performance of objects with many children. The culling area is defined in local space.

cullable

cullable: boolean

Should this object be rendered if the bounds of this object are out of frame?

Culling has no effect on whether updateTransform is called.

cursor

cursor: string

displayObjectUpdateTransform

displayObjectUpdateTransform: () => void

Type declaration

    • (): void
    • Returns void

filterArea

filterArea: Rectangle

The area the filter is applied to. This is used as more of an optimization rather than figuring out the dimensions of the displayObject each frame you can set this rectangle.

Also works as an interaction mask.

filters

filters: null | Filter[]

Sets the filters for the displayObject. IMPORTANT: This is a WebGL only feature and will be ignored by the canvas renderer. To remove filters simply set this property to 'null'.

hitArea

hitArea: null | IHitArea

interactive

interactive: boolean

interactiveChildren

interactiveChildren: boolean

isMask

isMask: boolean

Does any other displayObject use this object as a mask?

isSprite

isSprite: boolean

Used to fast check if a sprite is.. a sprite!

meshes

meshes: Mesh3D[] = []

The meshes included in the model. Note that this array and the actual childen are not automatically synchronized after the model has been loaded.

name

name: string

parent

parent: Container<DisplayObject>

renderable

renderable: boolean

Can this object be rendered, if false the object will not be drawn but the updateTransform methods will still be called.

Only affects recursive calls from parent. You can ask for bounds manually.

sortDirty

sortDirty: boolean

Should children be sorted by zIndex at the next updateTransform call.

Will get automatically set to true if a new child is added, or if a child's zIndex changes.

sortableChildren

sortableChildren: boolean

If set to true, the container will sort its children by zIndex value when updateTransform() is called, or manually if sortChildren() is called.

This actually changes the order of elements in the array, so should be treated as a basic solution that is not performant compared to other solutions, such as @link https://github.com/pixijs/pixi-display

Also be aware of that this may not work nicely with the addChildAt() function, as the zIndex sorting may cause the child to automatically sorted to another position.

see

PIXI.settings.SORTABLE_CHILDREN

trackedPointers

trackedPointers: {}

Type declaration

  • [x: number]: InteractionTrackingData

transform

transform: Transform3D = ...

visible

visible: boolean

The visibility of the object. If false the object will not be drawn, and the updateTransform function will not be called.

Only affects recursive calls from parent. You can ask for bounds or call updateTransform manually.

worldAlpha

The multiplied alpha of the displayObject.

readonly

Static prefixed

prefixed: string | boolean

Accessors

Protected _tempDisplayObjectParent

  • get _tempDisplayObjectParent(): TemporaryDisplayObject
  • member

    {PIXI.Container}

    Returns TemporaryDisplayObject

angle

  • get angle(): number
  • set angle(value: number): void
  • The angle of the object in degrees. 'rotation' and 'angle' have the same effect on a display object; rotation is in radians, angle is in degrees.

    Returns number

  • The angle of the object in degrees. 'rotation' and 'angle' have the same effect on a display object; rotation is in radians, angle is in degrees.

    Parameters

    • value: number

    Returns void

destroyed

  • get destroyed(): boolean
  • Readonly flag for destroyed display objects.

    Returns boolean

height

  • get height(): number
  • set height(value: number): void
  • The height of the Container, setting this will actually modify the scale to achieve the value set.

    Returns number

  • The height of the Container, setting this will actually modify the scale to achieve the value set.

    Parameters

    • value: number

    Returns void

localTransform

mask

  • get mask(): null | Container<DisplayObject> | MaskData
  • set mask(value: null | Container<DisplayObject> | MaskData): void
  • Sets a mask for the displayObject. A mask is an object that limits the visibility of an object to the shape of the mask applied to it. In PixiJS a regular mask must be a {@link PIXI.Graphics} or a {@link PIXI.Sprite} object. This allows for much faster masking in canvas as it utilities shape clipping. Furthermore, a mask of an object must be in the subtree of its parent. Otherwise, getLocalBounds may calculate incorrect bounds, which makes the container's width and height wrong. To remove a mask, set this property to null.

    For sprite mask both alpha and red channel are used. Black mask is the same as transparent mask.

    example

    const graphics = new PIXI.Graphics(); graphics.beginFill(0xFF3300); graphics.drawRect(50, 250, 100, 100); graphics.endFill();

    const sprite = new PIXI.Sprite(texture); sprite.mask = graphics;

    todo

    At the moment, PIXI.CanvasRenderer doesn't support PIXI.Sprite as mask.

    Returns AABB

getBounds

  • getBounds(skipUpdate?: boolean, rect?: Rectangle): Rectangle
  • Calculates and returns the (world) bounds of the display object as a [Rectangle]{@link PIXI.Rectangle}.

    This method is expensive on containers with a large subtree (like the stage). This is because the bounds of a container depend on its children's bounds, which recursively causes all bounds in the subtree to be recalculated. The upside, however, is that calling getBounds once on a container will indeed update the bounds of all children (the whole subtree, in fact). This side effect should be exploited by using displayObject._bounds.getRectangle() when traversing through all the bounds in a scene graph. Otherwise, calling getBounds on each object in a subtree will cause the total cost to increase quadratically as its height increases.

    The transforms of all objects in a container's subtree and of all ancestors are updated. The world bounds of all display objects in a container's subtree will also be recalculated.

    The _bounds object stores the last calculation of the bounds. You can use to entirely skip bounds calculation if needed.

    const lastCalculatedBounds = displayObject._bounds.getRectangle(optionalRect);
    

    Do know that usage of getLocalBounds can corrupt the _bounds of children (the whole subtree, actually). This is a known issue that has not been solved. See [getLocalBounds]{@link PIXI.DisplayObject#getLocalBounds} for more details.

    getBounds should be called with skipUpdate equal to true in a render() call. This is because the transforms are guaranteed to be update-to-date. In fact, recalculating inside a render() call may cause corruption in certain cases.

    Parameters

    • Optional skipUpdate: boolean

      Setting to true will stop the transforms of the scene graph from being updated. This means the calculation returned MAY be out of date BUT will give you a nice performance boost.

    • Optional rect: Rectangle

      Optional rectangle to store the result of the bounds calculation.

    Returns Rectangle

    • The minimum axis-aligned rectangle in world space that fits around this object.

    Parameters

    • child: DisplayObject

      The DisplayObject instance to identify

    Returns number

    • The index position of the child display object to identify

getLocalBounds

  • getLocalBounds(rect?: Rectangle, skipChildrenUpdate?: boolean): Rectangle
  • Retrieves the local bounds of the displayObject as a rectangle object.

    Calling getLocalBounds may invalidate the _bounds of the whole subtree below. If using it inside a render() call, it is advised to call getBounds() immediately after to recalculate the world bounds of the subtree.

    Parameters

    • Optional rect: Rectangle

      Optional rectangle to store the result of the bounds calculation.

    • Optional skipChildrenUpdate: boolean

      Setting to true will stop re-calculation of children transforms, it was default behaviour of pixi 4.0-5.2 and caused many problems to users.

render

  • render(renderer: Renderer): void
  • Renders the object using the WebGL renderer.

    The [_render]{@link PIXI.Container#_render} method is be overriden for rendering the contents of the container itself. This render method will invoke it, and also invoke the render methods of all children afterward.

    If renderable or visible is false or if worldAlpha is not positive or if cullable is true and the bounds of this object are out of frame, this implementation will entirely skip rendering. See {@link PIXI.DisplayObject} for choosing between renderable or visible. Generally, setting alpha to zero is not recommended for purely skipping rendering.

    When your scene becomes large (especially when it is larger than can be viewed in a single screen), it is advised to employ culling to automatically skip rendering objects outside of the current screen. See [cullable]{@link PIXI.DisplayObject#cullable} and [cullArea]{@link PIXI.DisplayObject#cullArea}. Other culling methods might be better suited for a large number static objects; see @pixi-essentials/cull and pixi-cull.

    The [renderAdvanced]{@link PIXI.Container#renderAdvanced} method is internally used when when masking or filtering is applied on a container. This does, however, break batching and can affect performance when masking and filtering is applied extensively throughout the scene graph.
