Properties

Property	Description
name	Gets or sets the name.
properties	Gets the collection of all properties.
scene	Gets the scene that this object belongs to
parent_nodes	Gets all parent nodes, an entity can be attached to multiple parent nodes for geometry instancing
excluded	Gets or sets whether to exclude this entity during exporting.
parent_node	Gets or sets the first parent node, if set the first parent node, this entity will be detached from other parent nodes.
rotation_mode	Gets or sets the frustum’s orientation mode This property only works when the Frustum.target is null. If the value is RotationMode.FIXED_TARGET, the direction is always calculated by the property Frustum.look_at Otherwise the Frustum.look_at is always calculated by the Frustum.direction
near_plane	Gets or sets the frustum’s near plane distance.
far_plane	Gets or sets the frustum’s far plane distance.
aspect	Gets or sets the aspect ratio of the frustum
ortho_height	Gets or sets the height when frustum in orthographic projection.
up	Gets or sets the up direction of the camera
look_at	Gets or sets the the interested position that the camera is looking at.
direction	Gets or sets the direction that the camera is looking at. Changes on this property will also affects the Frustum.look_at and Frustum.target.
target	Gets or sets the target that the camera is looking at. If the user supports this property, it should be prior to Frustum.look_at property.
aperture_mode	Gets or sets the camera’s aperture mode
field_of_view	Gets or sets the camera’s field of view in degrees, this property is used only when ApertureMode is ApertureMode.HORIZONTAL or ApertureMode.VERTICAL
field_of_view_x	Gets or sets the camera’s horizontal field of view in degrees, this property is used only when ApertureMode is ApertureMode.HORIZ_AND_VERT
field_of_view_y	Gets or sets the camera’s vertical field of view in degrees, this property is used only when ApertureMode is ApertureMode.HORIZ_AND_VERT
width	Gets or sets the view plane’s width measured in inches
height	Gets or sets the view plane’s height measured in inches
aspect_ratio	Gets or sets the view plane aspect ratio.
magnification	Gets or sets the magnification used in orthographic camera
projection_type	Gets or sets the camera’s projection type. By default the perspective projection is used.

Methods

Method	Description
remove_property	Removes a dynamic property.
remove_property	Remove the specified property identified by name
get_property	Get the value of specified property
set_property	Sets the value of specified property
find_property	Finds the property. It can be a dynamic property (Created by CreateDynamicProperty/SetProperty) or native property(Identified by its name)
get_bounding_box	Gets the bounding box of current entity in its object space coordinate system.
get_entity_renderer_key	Gets the key of the entity renderer registered in the renderer
move_forward	Move camera forward towards its direction or target.
