Node2D

Back to API Reference

Namespace: Electron2D

Summary

Provides the Electron2D 2D transform node used by sprites and future 2D nodes.

Declaration

public class Electron2D.Node2D : Electron2D.CanvasItem

Remarks

Node2D combines position, rotation and scale into a local Electron2D.Transform2D. A direct Node2D parent contributes to Electron2D.Node2D.GlobalTransform; a non-Node2D parent breaks the transform chain for the 0.1.0 Preview subset.

Thread Safety

This type is not synchronized. Create and mutate nodes on the main scene thread.

Since

This type is available since Electron2D 0.1.0 Preview.
