Phaser. Graphics

new Graphics(game, x, y)

Creates a new Graphics object.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
game Phaser.Game

Current game instance.
x number

X position of the new graphics object.
y number

Y position of the new graphics object.
Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 17

Extends

Members

alpha :Number

The opacity of the object.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 65

angle :number

Indicates the rotation of the Graphics, in degrees, from its original orientation. Values from 0 to 180 represent clockwise rotation; values from 0 to -180 represent counterclockwise rotation. Values outside this range are added to or subtracted from 360 to obtain a value within the range. For example, the statement player.angle = 450 is the same as player.angle = 90. If you wish to work in radians instead of degrees use the property Sprite.rotation instead. Gets or sets the angle of rotation in degrees.

Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 305

blendMode :Number

The blend mode to be applied to the graphic shape. Apply a value of PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL to reset the blend mode.

Inherited From:
Default Value:
  • PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL;
Source - pixi/primitives/Graphics.js, line 61

boundsPadding :Number

The bounds' padding used for bounds calculation.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/primitives/Graphics.js, line 96

buttonMode :Boolean

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

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 90

cameraOffset :Phaser.Point

If this object is fixedToCamera then this stores the x/y offset that its drawn at, from the top-left of the camera view.

Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 58

<readonly> children :Array.<DisplayObject>

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

Type:
Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObjectContainer.js, line 17

destroyPhase :boolean

True if this object is currently being destroyed.

Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 356

exists :boolean

If exists = false then the Text isn't updated by the core game loop.

Default Value:
  • true
Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 31

fillAlpha :Number

The alpha value used when filling the Graphics object.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/primitives/Graphics.js, line 18

filterArea :PIXI.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

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 180

filters :Array.<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'

Type:
  • Array.<Filter>
Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 400

fixedToCamera :boolean

An Graphics that is fixed to the camera uses its x/y coordinates as offsets from the top left of the camera. These are stored in Graphics.cameraOffset. Note that the cameraOffset values are in addition to any parent in the display list. So if this Graphics was in a Group that has x: 200, then this will be added to the cameraOffset.x Set to true to fix this Graphics to the Camera at its current world coordinates.

Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 325

game :Phaser.Game

A reference to the currently running Game.

Source - gameobjects/Graphics.js, line 25

height :Number

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObjectContainer.js, line 63

hitArea :PIXI.Rectangle|PIXI.Circle|PIXI.Ellipse|PIXI.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)

Type:

mask :PIXI.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.
