Access Description
Get A list containing a vector and a
floating-point value, with the vector
representing the position and the
value the radius of a bounding sphere
surrounding the camera and all its
children.
Get and set Position of the camera in world
coordinates. Shortcut for the method
node.getWorldTransform
().position
Description
Adds to this camera's list of children. An
aNode
equivalent operation is to set
.

The argument is optional.I t can have two
preserveWorld
values:
#preserveWorld
is , the world transform of the child being
#preserveWorld
added remains intact. If
transform is interpreted as remaining parent-relative.
Returns the child at the specified position in the index.
Returns the child named
Clones a camera named
parent's child list, and adds it to the world.
All children of the camera are automatically cloned.This
can be avoided by removing the children, performing
the cloning operation, and then adding the children
back.
If the name is omitted or is
the camera palette, has no parent, and has no children.
This option lets you quickly create temporary camera
instances.
Clones both the camera and all resources used by the
camera's children.
Adds a camera to the currently active 3D world, setting
its parent as
"world"
Equivalent to setting the camera's parent to the world
group.
All newly created cameras are added to the world by
default, without it being necessary to use this method.
For cameras whose parent hierarchy terminates in the
world, this sets their parent to
from the world. Otherwise it does nothing.
