parameters: text {String} The copy that you would like the text to display; [style] {TextStyle} The style parameters; [style.font] {String} default 'bold 20px Arial' The style and size of the font; [style.fill='black'] {String} A canvas fillstyle that will be used on the text e.g '#00FF00'; [style.align='left'] {String} Alignment for multiline text ('left', 'center' or 'right'), does not affect single line text; [style.stroke] {String} A canvas fillstyle that will be used on the text stroke e.g ''#FCFF00'; [style.strokeThickness=0] {Float} A number that represents the thickness of the stroke. Default is 0 (no stroke); [style.wordWrap=false] {Bool} Indicates if word wrap should be used; [style.wordWrapWidth=100] {Float} The width at which text will wrap, it needs wordWrap to be set to true; [style.dropShadow=false] {Bool} Set a drop shadow for the text; [style.dropShadowColor='#000000'] {String} A fill style to be used on the dropshadow e.g 'red', '#00FF00'; [style.dropShadowAngle=Math.PI/4] {Number} Set a angle of the drop shadow; [style.dropShadowDistance=5] {Number} Set a distance of the drop shadow

A Text Object will create a line(s) of text. To split a line you can use '\n' or add a wordWrap property set to true and and wordWrapWidth property with a value in the style object

The opacity of the object.

The anchor sets the origin point of the texture. The default is 0,0 this means the texture's origin is the top left Setting than anchor to 0.5,0.5 means the textures origin is centered Setting the anchor to 1,1 would mean the textures origin points will be the bottom right corner

The blend mode to be applied to the sprite. Set to PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL to remove any blend mode.

This is used to indicate if the displayObject should display a mouse hand cursor on rollover

Set weather or not a the display objects is cached as a bitmap. This basically takes a snap shot of the display object as it is at that moment. It can provide a performance benefit for complex static displayObjects To remove filters simply set this property to 'null'

The canvas element that everything is drawn to

read-only The array of children of this container.

A callback that is used when the users clicks on the displayObject with their mouse's left button

The canvas 2d context that everything is drawn with

This is the cursor that will be used when the mouse is over this object. To enable this the element must have interaction = true and buttonMode = true

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

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'

The height of the displayObjectContainer, setting this will actually modify the scale to achieve the value set

This is the defined area that will pick up mouse / touch events. It is null by default. Setting it is a neat way of optimising the hitTest function that the interactionManager will use (as it will not need to hit test all the children)

Indicates if the sprite will have touch and mouse interactivity. It is false by default

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 PIXI a regular mask must be a PIXI.Graphics object. This allows for much faster masking in canvas as it utilises shape clipping. To remove a mask, set this property to null.

A callback that is used when the user clicks the mouse's left button down over the sprite

Is called when mouse is moved across the renderer element

A callback that is used when the users mouse leaves the displayObject

A callback that is used when the users mouse rolls over the displayObject

A callback that is used when the user releases the mouse's left button that was over the displayObject for this callback to be fired, the mouse's left button must have been pressed down over the displayObject

A callback that is used when the user releases the mouse's left button that was over the displayObject but is no longer over the displayObject for this callback to be fired, the mouse's left button must have been pressed down over the displayObject

read-only The display object container that contains this display object.

The pivot point of the displayObject that it rotates around

The coordinate of the object relative to the local coordinates of the parent.

Can this object be rendered

A callback that is used when the users clicks on the displayObject with their mouse's right button

A callback that is used when the user clicks the mouse's right button down over the sprite

A callback that is used when the user releases the mouse's right button that was over the displayObject for this callback to be fired the mouse's right button must have been pressed down over the displayObject

A callback that is used when the user releases the mouse's right button that was over the displayObject but is no longer over the displayObject for this callback to be fired, the mouse's right button must have been pressed down over the displayObject

The rotation of the object in radians.

The scale factor of the object.

The shader that will be used to render the texture to the stage. Set to null to remove a current shader.

read-only The stage the display object is connected to, or undefined if it is not connected to the stage.

A callback that is used when the users taps on the sprite with their finger basically a touch version of click

Text value

The texture that the sprite is using

The tint applied to the sprite. This is a hex value. A value of 0xFFFFFF will remove any tint effect.

A callback that is used when the user releases a touch over the displayObject

A callback that is used when the user releases the touch that was over the displayObject for this callback to be fired, The touch must have started over the sprite

Is called when a touch is moved across the renderer element

A callback that is used when the user touches over the displayObject

The visibility of the object.

The width of the displayObjectContainer, setting this will actually modify the scale to achieve the value set

read-only The multiplied alpha of the displayObject

read-only Indicates if the sprite is globaly visible.

The position of the displayObject on the x axis relative to the local coordinates of the parent.

The position of the displayObject on the y axis relative to the local coordinates of the parent.
