Custom class

  • Define class
    class MyColorInput extends RexPlugins.UI.ColorInput {
        constructor(scene, config) {
            super(scene, config);
            // ...
            scene.add.existing(this);
        }
        // ...
    }
    
  • Create instance
    var colorInput = new MyColorInput(scene, config);
    

Layout children

Arrange position of all elements.

colorInput.layout();

Get element

  • Get element
    • Background game object
      var background = colorInput.getElement('background');
      
    • Swatch game object
      var icon = colorInput.getElement('swatch');
      
    • Input text game object
      var textObject = colorInput.getElement('inputText');
      
  • Get by name
    var gameObject = colorInput.getElement('#' + name);
    // var gameObject = colorInput.getElement('#' + name, recursive);
    
    or
    var gameObject = colorInput.getByName(name);
    // var gameObject = colorInput.getByName(name, recursive);
    
    • recursive : Set true to search all children recursively.

Value

Change value will also change the position of marker on H-palette and SV-palette

  • Get color value
    var value = colorInput.value;
    // var value = colorInput.color;
    
  • Set color value
    colorInput.setValue(value);
    // colorInput.setColor(value);
    
    or
    colorInput.value = value;
    colorInput.color = value;
    

Events

  • On value changed
    colorInput.on('valuechange', function(newValue, oldValue, colorInput){
        //
    }, scope);
