Implements a container for script files referenced by an application.
Class registration and implementation information is as follows:
| Category | Documentation |
|---|---|
| Implementation | C++ |
| Module | Plugin-Nodes-Shell |
| Class Hierarchy | Node » Group » ScriptElementNode |
| Data Interface Name | ScriptElementNode |
| Type Status | Active |
| Is Final Type | Yes |
Properties are as follows:
| Property | Documentation |
|---|---|
| Package | Sets or gets the package string, which associates this object with a particular application package. |
| Handler | A GUID for the <ScriptAppFormatHandler> object. This value should always be {6D15A459-E1A6-4A5C-A697-691097473638}. |
| HandleStates | A comma delimited list of states to handle. For example: 'startup, run'. Note that you shouldn't alter this value unless you know what you're doing. |
| XML Output File Path | The absolute or relative path to the .XML file generated by this node and its child <FileNode> objects that refer to scripts. Usually this value is something like 'v0_scripts.xml' or 'v1_scripts.xml', which means it generates these XML files in the same directory as the document in which they are resident. If the document is in D:\Release6\MyApplication, this is where these files will be generated. |
| Add All Scripts During Build | If true, adds all scripts in the application scripts directory. Note that this refers to any script file with "_scripts.ss" in its file name. |
Properties are as follows:
| Property | Documentation |
|---|---|
| Visible | Toggles the <Group>'s visible/invisible". Child nodes are not visible when their parent <Group>'s is invisible. |
| Collisions | Toggles collision detection on the <Group> node and its children". This is used for runtime export and has no effect in Simdify applications. |
| Cull | Toggles view volume culling on/off". modifying this parameter may cause incorrect culling and other unexpected consequences. |
| Preserve Camera | This option is undocumented at present. |
| Generic Data Source | This option provides the capability to connect a <Group>'s to a node that serves as a generic data source. |
| Bounding Box Frozen | Freezes the bounding box at its current size. This is often used as a runtime flag, and modifying this parameter may cause incorrect culling. |
| Minimum X | Displays the minimum bounding box coordinate on the X axis. |
| Minimum Y | Displays the minimum bounding box coordinate on the Y axis. |
| Minimum Z | Displays the minimum bounding box coordinate on the Z axis. |
| Maximum X | Displays the maximum bounding box coordinate on the X axis. |
| Maximum Y | Displays the maximum bounding box coordinate on the Y axis. |
| Maximum Z | Displays the maximum bounding box coordinate on the Z axis. |
| Transform Locked | Locks the node and prevents transformation of the node and its children. This is a runtime flag and has no effect in Simdify applications. |
| Position X | Displays the node's position on the X axis. |
| Position Y | Displays the node's position on the Y axis. |
| Position Z | Displays the node's position on the Z axis. |
| Orientation X | Displays the node's orientation on the X axis. |
| Orientation Y | Displays the node's orientation on the Y axis. |
| Orientation Z | Displays the node's orientation on the Z axis. |
| Scale X | Displays the node's scale on the X axis. |
| Scale Y | Displays the node's scale on the Y axis. |
| Scale Z | Displays the node's scale on the Z axis. |
| Billboard | Sets the node as a billboard. Billboards rotate to face the camera. This feature has been preserved for compatibility purposes, but this functionality should be implemented with geometry shaders. |
Properties are as follows:
| Property | Documentation |
|---|---|
| Name | Sets orthe name of the node. Do not use / or \ [forward slash and backslash] in the node name as this produces conflicts with resolving link nodes that reference external files. |
| Class | Sets the class of the node. |
| ID | Sets the ID of the node. This must be unique for each document, but different documents can use the same ID. |
| Import Disabled | Determines whether or not the node is imported during an import process such as when nodes are imported from a template during document creation. Note that this flag is mostly in Simdify Scripting language. |
| Export Disabled | Determines whether or not the node is exported during an export process, or possibly other purposes. This flag is set to No and current Simdify exporters ignore it (but it can be very useful if you need to modify the exporters). |
| Guid | Enumerates the Node's GUID. |
