Accessors

target

  • Defines the target point of the camera. The camera looks towards it form the radius distance.

    Returns Vector3

  • Defines the target point of the camera. The camera looks towards it form the radius distance.

    Parameters

    Returns any

Methods

getClassNameSearch playground for getClassName

  • getClassName(): string

    Returns string

getFrontPositionSearch playground for getFrontPosition

  • getFrontPosition(distance: number): Vector3
  • Gets the position in front of the camera at a given distance.

    Parameters

    • distance: number

      The distance from the camera we want the position to be

    Returns Vector3

    the position

getTargetSearch playground for getTarget

  • Return the current target position of the camera. This value is expressed in local space.

    Returns Vector3

    the target position

setMeshTargetSearch playground for setMeshTarget

  • Sets the mesh to follow with this camera.

    Parameters

    Returns void

setTargetSearch playground for setTarget

  • Defines the target the camera should look at.

    Parameters

    • target: Vector3

      Defines the new target as a Vector

    Returns void
