buttonMode

buttonMode: boolean

If enabled, the mouse cursor use the pointer behavior when hovered over the displayObject if it is interactive Setting this changes the 'cursor' property to 'pointer'.

member

{boolean}

memberof

PIXI.DisplayObject#

cacheAsBitmap

cacheAsBitmap: boolean

Set this to true if you want this display object to be 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 simply set this property to false

IMPORTANT GOTCHA - Make sure that all your textures are preloaded BEFORE setting this property to true as it will take a snapshot of what is currently there. If the textures have not loaded then they will not appear.

member

{boolean}

memberof

PIXI.DisplayObject#

Readonly children

children: DisplayObject[]

The array of children of this container.

member

{PIXI.DisplayObject[]} PIXI.Container#children

member

{?PIXI.Rectangle} PIXI.DisplayObject#filterArea

filters

filters: 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'.
member

{?PIXI.Filter[]} PIXI.DisplayObject#filters

height

height: number

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

member

{number}

hitArea

hitArea: IHitArea

Interaction shape. Children will be hit first, then this shape will be checked. Setting this will cause this shape to be checked in hit tests rather than the displayObject's bounds.

example

const sprite = new PIXI.Sprite(texture); sprite.interactive = true; sprite.hitArea = new PIXI.Rectangle(0, 0, 100, 100);

member

{PIXI.IHitArea}

memberof

PIXI.DisplayObject#

interactive: boolean

Enable interaction events for the DisplayObject. Touch, pointer and mouse events will not be emitted unless interactive is set to true.

example

member

{boolean}

memberof

PIXI.DisplayObject#

member

{boolean} PIXI.DisplayObject#isMask

member

{boolean} PIXI.DisplayObject#isSprite

Readonly localTransform

localTransform: Matrix

Current transform of the object based on local factors: position, scale, other stuff.

member

{PIXI.Matrix}

readonly

mask

mask: Container | MaskData

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. 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.

member

{PIXI.Container|PIXI.MaskData|null}

name

name: string

The instance name of the object.

memberof

PIXI.DisplayObject#

member

{string} name

parent

parent: Container

The display object container that contains this display object.

member

{PIXI.Container} PIXI.DisplayObject#parent

pivot

pivot: ObservablePoint

The pivot point of the displayObject that it rotates around. Assignment by value since pixi-v4.

member

{PIXI.ObservablePoint}

position

position: ObservablePoint

The coordinate of the object relative to the local coordinates of the parent. Assignment by value since pixi-v4.

member

{PIXI.ObservablePoint}

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.

member

{boolean} PIXI.DisplayObject#renderable

rotation

rotation: number

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

member

{number}

scale

scale: ObservablePoint

The scale factor of the object. Assignment by value since pixi-v4.

member

{PIXI.ObservablePoint}

skew

skew: ObservablePoint

The skew factor for the object in radians. Assignment by value since pixi-v4.

member

{PIXI.ObservablePoint}

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.

member

{boolean} PIXI.Container#sortDirty

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

member

{boolean} PIXI.Container#sortableChildren

transform

transform: Transform

member

{PIXI.Transform} PIXI.DisplayObject#transform
