Parameters:

updateCache

()

Generates and updates the cached sprite for this object.

Properties

alpha

Float

The opacity of the object.

blendMode

Int

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

Default: PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL;

buttonMode

Bool

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

cacheAsBitmap

Bool

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'

canvasPadding

Float

Triangles in canvas mode are automatically antialiased, use this value to force triangles to overlap a bit with each other.

children

Array

[read-only] The array of children of this container.

defaultCursor

String

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

dirty

Bool

Whether the strip is dirty or not

filterArea

Rectangle

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

filters

Array An array of filters

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'

height

Float

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

hitArea

Rectangle | Circle | Ellipse | Polygon

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)

interactive

Bool

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

Default: false

mask

Graphics

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.

padding

Float

if you need a padding, not yet implemented

parent

DisplayObjectContainer

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

pivot

Point

The pivot point of the displayObject that it rotates around

position

Point

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

renderable

Bool

Can this object be rendered

rotation

Float

The rotation of the object in radians.

scale

Point

The scale factor of the object.

stage

Stage

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

texture

Texture

The texture of the strip

visible

Bool

The visibility of the object.

width

Float

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

worldAlpha

Float

[read-only] The multiplied alpha of the displayObject

worldVisible

Bool

[read-only] Indicates if the sprite is globaly visible.

x

Float

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

y

Float

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