var sizer = scene.rexUI.add.perspectiveCard({    
    // x: 0,
    // y: 0,
    // anchor: undefined,
    // width: undefined,
    // height: undefined,

    back: backGameObject,
    front: frontGameObject,
    // face: 0,

    // flip : {
    //     frontToBack: 0,

Custom class

  • Define class
    class MyPerspectiveCard extends PerspectiveCard {
        constructor(scene, config) {
            super(scene, config);
            // ...
            scene.add.existing(this);
        }
        // ...
    
        // preUpdate(time, delta) {
        //     super.preUpdate(time, delta);
        // }
    }
    
    • scene.add.existing(gameObject) : Adds an existing Game Object to this Scene.
      • If the Game Object renders, it will be added to the Display List.
      • If it has a preUpdate method, it will be added to the Update List.
  • Create instance
    var card = new MyPerspectiveCard(scene, config);
    

Layout children

Arrange position of all elements.

card.layout();

Get element

  • Get element
    • Background game object
      var background = card.getElement('background');
      
    • Front face game object
      var frontFace = card.getElement('front');
      
    • Back face game object
      var backFace = card.getElement('back');
      
  • Get by name
    var gameObject = card.getElement('#' + name);
    // var gameObject = card.getElement('#' + name, recursive);
    
    or
    var gameObject = card.getByName(name);
    // var gameObject = card.getByName(name, recursive);
    
    • recursive : Set true to search all children recursively.

Face

  • Get
    var face = card.face;
    
    • face:
      • 0 : Show front face.
      • 1 : Show back face.
  • Set
    card.setFace(face)
    
    • face
      • 'front', or 0 : Show front face.
      • 'back', or 1 : Show back face.
  • Toggle
    card.toggleFace()
    

Face instances

  • Front face
    var frontFace = card.frontFace;
    // var frontFace = card.faces.front;
    
  • Back face
    var backFace = card.backFace;
    // var backFace = card.faces.back;
    

Flip behavior

Start flipping

card.flip.flip();
// card.flip.flip(duration, repeat);
  • duration : Overwrite default duration value.
  • repeat : Number of flipping time (repeat + 1) during duration. Default value is 0.

or

  • Flip-right
    card.flip.flipRight();
    // card.flip.flipRight(duration, repeat);
    
  • Flip-left
    card.flip.flipLeft();
    // card.flip.flipLeft(duration, repeat);
    

Note

Stop flipping

card.flip.stop();

Set duration

card.flip.setDuration(duration);
// card.flip.duration = duration;

Set ease

card.flip.setEase(ease);
// card.flip.ease = ease;

Events

  • On flipping start
    card.flip.on('start', function(){
        // ...
    });
    
  • On flipping complete
    card.flip.on('complete', function(){
        // ...
    });
    

Status

  • Is flipping
    var isRunning = card.flip.isRunning;
    

Rotation

  • Get rotation angle
    var angleX = card.angleX; // Angle in degrees
    var angleY = card.angleY; // Angle in degrees
    var angleZ = card.angleZ; // Angle in degrees
    
    or
    var rotationX = card.rotationX; // Angle in radians
    var rotationY = card.rotationY; // Angle in radians
    var rotationZ = card.rotationZ; // Angle in radians
    
  • Set rotation angle
    card.angleX = angleX; // Angle in degrees
    card.angleY = angleY; // Angle in degrees
    card.angleZ = angleZ; // Angle in degrees
    
    or
    card.rotationX = rotationX; // Angle in radians
    card.rotationY = rotationY; // Angle in radians
    card.rotationZ = rotationZ; // Angle in radians
    

Warning

Can't be used with flipping mode.
