Overrides
Accessors
aspectMode
Get Signature
get aspectMode():
Camera2DAspectMode
Defined in: src/core/Camera.ts:345
Get the current aspect-mode (see Camera2DAspectMode).
Returns
Set Signature
set aspectMode(
mode):void
Defined in: src/core/Camera.ts:353
Set the aspect-mode. Re-applies the current aspect ratio so the projection updates immediately.
Parameters

Get the frame height in world units.
Returns
number
Set Signature
set frameHeight(
height):void
Defined in: src/core/Camera.ts:336
Set the frame height in world units.
Parameters
height
number
Returns
void

Get Signature
get frameWidth():
number
Defined in: src/core/Camera.ts:313
Get the frame width in world units.
Returns
number
Set Signature
set frameWidth(

Optional offset from the target's center [x, y, z]
Returns
this
this for chaining
getCamera()
getCamera():
OrthographicCamera
Defined in: src/core/Camera.ts:380
Get the underlying Three.js OrthographicCamera.
Returns
The OrthographicCamera instance
Inherited from
isAnimating()

Width / height ratio
Returns
void
Inherited from
setTargetPosition()
setTargetPosition(
position):this
Defined in: src/core/CameraExtensions.ts:103
Set the target position for animation.
Parameters
position
Target position [x, y, z]
