ViroScene

A ViroScene is the top most component for each scene in a Viro application. Please see our Scene Guide for more information.

Example use:
<ViroScene
    onClick={this._onClick}
>
    <ViroSphere
        position={[0, 0, -1]}
    />
</ViroScene>

Props

dragPlane

TypeDescription
PropTypes.shape({ planePoint:PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.number), planeNormal:PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.number), maxDistance:PropTypes.number})When a drag type of "FixedToPlane" is given, dragging is limited to a user defined plane. The dragging behavior is then configured by this property (specified by a point on the plane and its normal vector). You can also limit the maximum distance the dragged object is allowed to travel away from the camera/controller (useful for situations where the user can drag an object towards infinity).

dragType

TypeDescription
PropTypes.oneOf(["FixedDistance", "FixedToWorld"])Determines the behavior of drag if onDrag is specified.|Value|Description||:------|:----------:||FixedDistance| Dragging is limited to a fixed radius around the user, dragged from the point at which the user has grabbed the geometry containing this draggable node||FixedDistanceOrigin| Dragging is limited to a fixed radius around the user, dragged from the point of this node's position in world space.||FixedToWorld| Dragging is based on intersection with real world objects. Available only in AR ||FixedToPlane| Dragging is limited to a fixed plane around the user. The configuration of this plane is defined by the dragPlane property.|The default value is "FixedDistance".

ignoreEventHandling

TypeDescription
PropTypes.boolWhen set to true, this control will ignore events and not prevent controls behind it from receiving event callbacks.The default value is false.

onCameraTransformUpdate

TypeDescription
PropTypes.funcA callback invoked when the camera changes (at most, once per frame).Returns the value as an object:``{ cameraTransform : { position : [posX, posY, posZ], rotation : [rotX, rotY, rotZ], forward : [forwardX, forwardY, forwardZ], up : [upX, upY, upZ], }}````pos - position (in world coordinates) of the camerarot - rotation (in world coordinates) of the camera in Euler angles (degrees).forward - the forward vector of the camera (in world coordinatesup - the up vector of the camera (in world coordinates)

onClick

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcFunction to be invoked when a user clicks on a scene. This is ONLY invoked if a click is not captured on another object within a scene.Defining this can be used to register clicks for 360 Photos and videos.

onClickState

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcCalled for each click state an object goes through as it is clicked. Supported click states and their values are the following:|State Value|Description||:------|:----------:||1| Click Down: Triggered when the user has performed a click down action while hovering on this control.||2| Click Up: Triggered when the user has performed a click up action while hovering on this control.||3| Clicked: Triggered when the user has performed both a click down and click up action on this control sequentially, thereby having "Clicked" the object.|Example code: _onClickState(stateValue, position, source) { if(stateValue == 1) { // Click Down } else if(stateValue == 2) { // Click Up } else if(stateValue == 3) { // Clicked }}For the mapping of sources to controller inputs, see the Events section.This is ONLY invoked if a click is not captured on another object within a scene.

onDrag

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcCalled when the view is currently being dragged. The dragToPos parameter provides the current 3D location of the dragged object. Example code: _onDrag(dragToPos, source) { // dragtoPos[0]: x position // dragtoPos[1]: y position // dragtoPos[2]: z position} For the mapping of sources to controller inputs, see the Events section. Unsupported VR Platforms: Cardboard iOS

onFuse

TypeDescription
PropTypes.oneOfType PropTypes.oneOfType([ React.PropTypes.shape({ callback: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired, timeToFuse: PropTypes.number }), React.PropTypes.func,]) As shown above, onFuse takes one of the types - either a callback, or a dictionary with a callback and duration. It is called after the user hovers onto and remains hovered on the control for a certain duration of time, as indicated in timeToFuse that represents the duration of time in milliseconds. While hovering, the reticle will display a count down animation while fusing towards timeToFuse.Note that timeToFuse defaults to 2000ms.For example: _onFuse(source){ // User has hovered over object for timeToFuse milliseconds}For the mapping of sources to controller inputs, see the Events section.

onHover

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcFunction to be invoked when the user hovers on on the scene. If this is defined, it is invoked ONLY if no other object captures the onHover event.For example: _onHover(isHovering, position, source) { if(isHovering) { // user is hovering on the scene. } else { // user is hovering on another object in the scene. }}

onPinch

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcCalled when the user performs a pinch gesture on the control. When the pinch starts, the scale factor is set to 1 is relative to the points of the two touch points. For example: _onPinch(pinchState, scaleFactor, source) { if(pinchState == 3) { // update scale of obj by multiplying by scaleFactor when pinch ends. return; } //set scale using native props to reflect pinch. }pinchState can be the following values:|State Value|Description||:------|:----------:||1| Pinch Start: Triggered when the user has started a pinch gesture.||2| Pinch Move: Triggered when the user has adjusted the pinch, moving both fingers. ||3| Pinch End: When the user has finishes the pinch gesture and released both touch points. |This event is only available in AR.

onPlatformUpdate

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcCallback method set to be notified of platform specific information like headset type or controller type.Example Code: _onPlatformUpdate(platformInfo){ var platform = platformInfo.vrPlatform; var headset = platformInfo.headset; var controller = platformInfo.controller;}List of supported platforms:| |Cardboard iOS|Cardboard Android|Daydream|GearVR|:-------------------|:---------------|:---------------|:---------------|:---------------||Platform|gvr|gvr|gvr|ovr-mobile||Headset|cardboard|cardboard|daydream|gearvr||Controller|cardboard|cardboard|daydream|gearvr|

onRotate

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcCalled when the user performs a rotation touch gesture on the control. Rotation factor is returned in degrees.When setting rotation, the rotation should be relative to it's current rotation, not set to the absolute value of the given rotationFactor.For example: _onRotate(rotateState, rotationFactor, source) { if (rotateState == 3) { //set to current rotation - rotationFactor. return; } //update rotation using setNativeProps },rotationFactor can be the following values:|State Value|Description||:------|:----------:||1| Rotation Start: Triggered when the user has started a rotation gesture.||2| Rotation Move: Triggered when the user has adjusted the rotation, moving both fingers. ||3| Rotation End: When the user has finishes the rotation gesture and released both touch points. |This event is only available in AR.

onTouch

TypeDescription
React.PropTypes.funcCalled when the user performs a touch action, while hovering on the control. Provides the touch state type, and the x/y coordinate at which this touch event has occurred.|State Value|Description||:------|:----------:||1| Touch Down: Triggered when the user makes physical contact with the touch pad on the controller. ||2| Touch Down Move: Called when the user moves around the touch pad immediately after having performed a Touch Down action. ||3| Touch Up: Triggered after the user is no longer in physical contact with the touch pad after a Touch Down action. |For example: _onTouch(state, touchPos, source) { var touchX = touchPos[0]; var touchY = touchPos[1]; if(state == 1) { // Touch Down } else if(state == 2) { // Touch Down Move } else if(state == 3) { // Touch Up }}For the mapping of sources to controller inputs, see the Events section.Unsupported VR Platforms: Cardboard(Android and iOS).

physicsWorld

TypeDescription
PropTypes.shape({ gravity: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.number).isRequired, drawBounds: PropTypes.bool, })Contains and processes the physics bodies of all viro controls that have been physics enabled in this scene. Environmental physics properties are also applied, like gravity. |SubPropType|Description||:------|:----------:||gravity| A constant gravitational acceleration that is applied to all physics body objects in this scene.
