History: PrefabType

• «
• »

            The PrefabType enumerator allows an easy creation of 3 types of shapes (plane, cube, spere).

These are useful for visual testing purpose by tiny code additions code.
To create a shape, refer the related enum as parameter to the call ''SceneManager::__createEntity()__''. The returned ((-Entity|Entity)) contains the wanted shape.

Enums:
* PrefabType::PT_PLANE
* PrefabType::PT_CUBE
* PrefabType::PT_SPHERE

!!Example code

{CODE(wrap="1", colors="c++")}
// Create a prefab plane
Entity planeEnt = sceneMgr.CreateEntity("Plane", SceneManager.PrefabType.PT_PLANE);

// Give the plane a texture
planeEnt.SetMaterialName("Examples/BumpyMetal");

// Attach the 2 new entities to the root of the scene
sceneMgr.RootSceneNode.AttachObject(planeEnt);
{CODE}
Note: ''sceneMgr'' is the variable/instance of the SceneManager
