Detailed Description#

The owernship of QNode is determined by the QObject parent/child relationship between nodes. By itself, a QNode has no visual appearance and no particular meaning, it is there as a way of building a node based tree structure.

The parent of a QNode instance can only be another QNode instance.

Each QNode instance has a unique id that allows it to be recognizable from other instances.

When properties are defined on a QNode subclass, their NOTIFY signal will automatically generate notifications that the Qt3D backend aspects will receive.

QEntity QComponent

Note

Properties can be used directly when from __feature__ import true_property is used or via accessor functions otherwise.

property enabledᅟ: bool#

Holds the QNode enabled flag. By default a QNode is always enabled.

Note

the interpretation of what enabled means is aspect-dependent. Even if enabled is set to false, some aspects may still consider the node in some manner. This is documented on a class by class basis.

Access functions:

isEnabled()
setEnabled()
Signal enabledChanged()

property parentᅟ: QNode#

Holds the immediate QNode parent, or null if the node has no parent.

Setting the parent will notify the backend aspects about current QNode instance’s parent change.

Note

if parent happens to be null, this will actually notify that the current QNode instance was removed from the scene.

Access functions:

parentNode()
setParent()
Signal parentChanged()

__init__([parent=None])#

Parameters:: parent – QNode

Creates a new QNode instance with parent parent.

Note

The backend aspects will be notified that a QNode instance is part of the scene only if it has a parent; unless this is the root node of the Qt3D scene.
