Libraries.Interface.Controls.Scenes.Layers.EditorLayer2D Documentation

The EditorLayer2D class is used to show and manage objects in a 2D scene. EditorLayer2D provides a 2D grid, a cursor, and a camera preview for a 2D scene. The cursor goes along the grid and allows the user to select objects and edit them in the scene. For a 2D scene the editor camera does not represent the camera visible in the scene, instead EditorLayer2D provides a preview in the form of a border showing how much of a 2D scene will be visible.

Actions Documentation

Add(integer index, Libraries.Interface.Item2D item)

This action adds an item to layer so that it gets drawn to the screen. This action also adds the item to an input group so that certain keys and events will trigger when the user interacts with the Scene Editor.

Parameters

Add(Libraries.Interface.Item2D item)

This action adds an item to layer so that it gets drawn to the screen. This action also adds the item to an input group so that certain keys and events will trigger when the user interacts with the Scene Editor.

Parameters

AddCollisionListener(Libraries.Interface.Events.CollisionListener2D listener)

AddCollisionListener will add a collision listener to this layer. The collision listener will be notified of collisions occuring on this layer, and is responsible for managing the collision events.

Parameters

AddGestureListener(Libraries.Interface.Events.GestureListener listener)

This action will add a GestureListener to the layer. When the layer receives a gesture event, it will first try to find the topmost item which can handle the event. If the event is not handled, then all GestureListeners in the layer will receive the event.

Parameters

Example

use Libraries.Game.Game
use Libraries.Game.Layer2D
use Libraries.Interface.Events.GestureListener

class Main is Game

    // For most programs, this should be replaced with 
    // a custom class inheriting from GestureListener.
    GestureListener myListener

    action Main
        StartGame()
    end

    action CreateGame
        Layer2D layer
        layer:AddGestureListener(myListener)
        AddLayer(layer)
    end

    action Update(number seconds)
    end

end

AddJoint(Libraries.Game.Physics.Joints.Joint2D joint)

This action will remove an Item2D from the front of the array of items in this layer, and return the item that was removed. This is functionally the same as calling "RemoveAt(0)".

Parameters

Example

IsSubStepping()

SetColorFilter can be called using four number parameters instead of a color object. The four parameters are the red, green, blue, and opacity of the filter, respectively. All four of the parameters should be between 0 and 1, representing between 0% and 100% of that color component. For example, a value of 0 for red means that the tinting color will have no red, while a value of 1 will have all red components. An opacity of 0 is totally transparent, while an opacity of 1 will be totally visible.

    end

    action Update(number seconds)
    end
end

SetCameraPitch(number pitch)

The SetCameraYawPitchRoll action sets the direction and orientation of the Camera using pitch angles. All angles are in degrees. The pitch describes how far the camera is angled up or down. The pitch value should typically be between -90 and 90 degrees. Larger values will cause the camera to look in the opposite direction specified by the yaw value. For pitch values between -90 and 90, positive values angle the camera upwards, and negative values angle it downwards.

Parameters

  • number pitch: The pitch angle, measured in degrees.

SetCameraPreviewHeight(number height)

SetCameraPreviewHeight sets the height of the camera preview

Parameters

  • number height: height of the camera

SetCameraRoll(number roll)

The SetCameraYawPitchRoll action sets the direction and orientation of the Camera using roll angles. All angles are in degrees. The roll describes how the top of the camera is oriented. A roll value of 0 will angle the camera so the top of the camera points upward, towards the positive Y axis. A positive roll value "twists" the camera clockwise, and a negative value will twist it counter-clockwise.

Parameters

  • number roll: The roll angle, measured in degrees.

SetCameraYaw(number yaw)

The SetCameraYawPitchRoll action sets the direction and orientation of the Camera using yaw angles. All angles are in degrees. The yaw describes how far the camera is rotated along the X/Z axis. It effectively controls how the camera turns left and right. A positive value will rotate the camera clockwise (typically to the right).

Parameters

  • number yaw: The yaw angle, measured in degrees.

SetCameraYawPitchRoll(number yaw, number pitch, number roll)

The SetCameraYawPitchRoll action sets the direction and orientation of the Camera using yaw, pitch, and roll angles. All angles are in degrees. The yaw describes how far the camera is rotated along the X/Z axis. It effectively controls how the camera turns left and right. A positive value will rotate the camera clockwise (typically to the right). The pitch describes how far the camera is angled up or down. The pitch value should typically be between -90 and 90 degrees. Larger values will cause the camera to look in the opposite direction specified by the yaw value. For pitch values between -90 and 90, positive values angle the camera upwards, and negative values angle it downwards. The roll describes how the top of the camera is oriented. A roll value of 0 will angle the camera so the top of the camera points upward, towards the positive Y axis. A positive roll value "twists" the camera clockwise, and a negative value will twist it counter-clockwise.

Parameters

  • number yaw: The yaw angle, measured in degrees.
  • number pitch: The pitch angle, measured in degrees.
  • number roll: The roll angle, measured in degrees.

Parameters

  • boolean collide

SetColorFilter(Libraries.Game.Graphics.Color color)

Using SetColorFilter will tint all drawn objects on the layer that do not have their own custom color tint. For example, using a red color filter will make all objects drawn on the layer to appear to be more red.

Parameters

SetColorFilter(number red, number green, number blue, number alpha)

SetColorFilter can be called using four number parameters instead of a color object. The four parameters are the red, green, blue, and opacity of the filter, respectively. All four of the parameters should be between 0 and 1, representing between 0% and 100% of that color component. For example, a value of 0 for red means that the tinting color will have no red, while a value of 1 will have all red components. An opacity of 0 is totally transparent, while an opacity of 1 will be totally visible.

Parameters

  • number red
  • number green
  • number blue
  • number alpha

SetGridSnapping(boolean enabled)

SetGridSnapping turns the grid on or off

Parameters

  • boolean enabled: If true the grid will be enabled, the grid will be hidden if false

SetGridUnitSize(number units)

SetGridUnitSize sets the size of a single grid unit which affects the size of the grid and the size of the cursor.

Parameters

  • number units: the size of a single grid unit

SetInterfaceScale(number scale)

This allows us to turn collisions on or off for the layer.

Parameters

  • number scale

SetLayout(Libraries.Interface.Layouts.Layout layout)

SetName(text name)

This action sets the name of the Layer. This is used to identify the layer, especially in the Scene system.

Parameters

  • text name

SetNewItemAdded(boolean flag)

This action indicates that the layer has received a new item that it must manage during collision detection. This is automatically called by the Game engine as necessary, and most users should never need to use this action directly.

Parameters

  • boolean flag

SetPainter(Libraries.Game.Graphics.Painter2D painter)

SetSceneEditor(Libraries.Interface.Controls.Scenes.SceneEditor editor)

Sets the SceneEditor object that this layer is a part of.

Parameters

SetSimulationThreshold(number threshold)

This action will remove an Item2D from this layer. If the item was not a part of this layer, this action will have no effect.

Parameters

  • number threshold

Example

use Libraries.Game.Game
use Libraries.Game.Layer2D
use Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable

class Main is Game

    action Main
        StartGame()
    end

    action CreateGame
        Drawable circle
        circle:LoadFilledCircle(25)
        circle:SetPosition(300, 100)

        Layer2D layer
        layer:Add(circle)
        AddLayer(layer)

        layer:Remove(circle)
    end

    action Update(number seconds)
    end
end

SetSubStepping(boolean flag)

AddCollisionListener will add a collision listener to this layer. The collision listener will be notified of collisions occuring on this layer, and is responsible for managing the collision events.

Parameters

  • boolean flag

SetViewport(integer x, integer y, integer width, integer height)

This action sets the viewport that will be used by this Layer. Anything drawn on this Layer will appear in a rectangle that begins x pixels from the left side of the screen, y pixels from the bottom, and has the given width and height in pixels.

Parameters

  • integer x
  • integer y
  • integer width
  • integer height

SetViewportAndCamera(integer x, integer y, integer width, integer height)

This actions sets the viewport that will be used by this Layer, and adjusts the Layer's camera to match the dimensions of the viewport.

Parameters

  • integer x
  • integer y
  • integer width
  • integer height

SetWarmStarting(boolean flag)

This action will remove all MouseMovementListeners from the layer.

Parameters

  • boolean flag

Example

use Libraries.Game.Game
use Libraries.Game.Layer2D
use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseMovementListener

class Main is Game

    // For most programs, this should be replaced with 
    // a custom class inheriting from MouseMovementListener.
    MouseMovementListener myListener

    action Main
        StartGame()
    end

    action CreateGame
        Layer2D layer
        layer:AddMouseMovementListener(myListener)
        AddLayer(layer)

        layer:EmptyMouseMovementListeners()
    end

    action Update(number seconds)
    end

end

Show()

This action will show the Layer. When Draw is called on a Layer which is showing, its items will appear on the screen. Layers begin showing by default.

Example

use Libraries.Game.Game
use Libraries.Game.Layer2D
use Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable

class Main is Game

    action Main
        StartGame()
    end

    action CreateGame
        Drawable square
        square:LoadFilledRectangle(200, 200)
        
        Layer2D layer
        layer:Add(square)

        AddLayer(layer)
        layer:Hide()

        // Since layers are visible by default, it's only necessary to Show
        // them after they've been hidden.
        layer:Show()
    end

    action Update(number seconds)
    end
end

ShowCursor(boolean visible)

Shows or hides the cursor based on the passed parameter.

Parameters

  • boolean visible: If true the cursor will be shown, hidden otherwise.

ShowEditorComponents(boolean shouldShow)

ShowEditorComponents toggles the editor components which consists of the camera preview, the grid, and the cursor. When toggled off they will all be hidden. When toggled on the preview and grid will be visible in the editor.

Parameters

  • boolean shouldShow

TestForCollisions(number seconds)

This action triggers collision detection for this layer during a frame in the Game engine. This action will automatically be called by the Game class as necessary. Most users should never need to use this action directly.

Parameters

  • number seconds

Update(number seconds)

Update is called by the Game loop every frame. This action resizes the viewport to fit the Layer so resizing the Game doesn't leave unused space in the EditorLayer.

Parameters

  • number seconds

UpdateGridPosition()

UpdateGridPosition positions the grid correctly based on the position and zoom of the editor camera. Grid2D is a drawable that is redrawn as needed so the Grid is resized and moved as needed so it looks correct in the editor.

UpdateGridSize()

UpdateGridSize sizes the grid correctly based on the position and zoom of the editor camera. Grid2D is a drawable that is redrawn and reshaped as needed so the Grid is resized and moved as needed so it looks correct in the editor.
