getDescendants

getDescendants(reversed?): Node[]

Returns the descendants of this node.

A descendant is node that has this node as an ancestor. Consider for example the following tree of nodes:

  • NodeA
    • NodeB
      • NodeD
      • NodeE
    • NodeC

If we ask for the descendants of NodeA we'll get back: [NodeB, NodeD, NodeE, NodeC]

If reversed is set to true then this method will return the reversed descendants. For the example above, that would be: [NodeC, NodeE, NodeD, NodeB, NodeA]. Note that the first item of the reversed descendants has the highest z-index.

Parameters

NameTypeDefault value

Returns

Node[]

A list of this node's descendants

Inherited from

Node.getDescendants


getExtras

getExtras(): any

Returns any extra data that this object needs to save during serialization.

In some cases an object might need to save some extra data without necessarily this extra data being part of its state (e.g. the AssetsLibrary of a Scene). In these cases subclasses can re-implement this method and return the data required.

The default implementation returns undefined meaning that no extra data needs to be saved during serialization.

Returns

any

Inherited from

Node.getExtras

getSceneTransform(): Matrix

Returns a copy of this node's scene transformation matrix. Use this matrix to map coordinates from this node's local coordinate system to the scene's coordinate system. To map coordinates from the scene, you must first invert the returned matrix.

Unlike getLocalTransform(), which returns only the local transformation, this function includes the node's (and any parents') position, and all the transfomation properties.

Returns

Matrix

Inherited from

Node.getSceneTransform


getShape

getShape(): Polygon

Returns the shape of this Node in local coordinates.

Note that the returned shape might be empty.

The shape of a Node is used for many things, including boolean operations and selection.

The object's state is an object containing key/value pairs corresponding to this object's properties. For example:

{
id: "Ssba4ch5ruok",
name: "Circle",
radius: 2,
// ...
}

To avoid including properties that are currently in their default value you can set minified = true when calling getState.

Note that read-only properties are not part of the object's state (with the exception of the id)
