Members

alpha :Number

The opacity of the object.

Inherited From:

• PIXI.DisplayObject#alpha

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 65

anchor :Point

The anchor sets the origin point of the texture. The default is 0,0 this means the texture's origin is the top left Setting than anchor to 0.5,0.5 means the textures origin is centered Setting the anchor to 1,1 would mean the textures origin points will be the bottom right corner

Inherited From:

• PIXI.Sprite#anchor

Source - pixi/display/Sprite.js, line 22

blendMode :Number

The blend mode to be applied to the sprite

Default Value:

• PIXI.blendModes.NORMAL;

Source - pixi/extras/TilingSprite.js, line 77

cacheAsBitmap :Boolean

Set if this display object 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 simply set this property to 'null'

Inherited From:

• PIXI.DisplayObject#cacheAsBitmap

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 336

<readonly> children :Array.<DisplayObject>

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

Type:

• Array.<DisplayObject>

Inherited From:

• PIXI.DisplayObjectContainer#children

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObjectContainer.js, line 17

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

Inherited From:

• PIXI.DisplayObject#filterArea

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 153

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:

• PIXI.DisplayObject#filters

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 298

height :Number

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

Source - pixi/extras/TilingSprite.js, line 111

height :Number

The height of the tiling sprite

Source - pixi/extras/TilingSprite.js, line 27

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)

Type:

• Rectangle | Circle | Ellipse | Polygon

Inherited From:

• PIXI.DisplayObject#hitArea

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 81

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.

Inherited From:

Both are PIXI.Matrix object types. The matrix are passed by reference and can be modified directly without needing to return them. This ability allows you to check any of the matrix values and perform actions such as clamping scale or limiting rotation, regardless of the parent transforms.

Inherited From:

• PIXI.DisplayObject#transformCallback

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 30

transformCallbackContext :Object
