Close| parent | The parent Transform to use. |
| worldPositionStays | If true, the parent-relative position, scale and rotation are modified such that the object keeps the same world space position, rotation and scale as before. |
Set the parent of the transform.
This method is the same as the parent property except that it is
possible to make the Transform keep its local orientation rather than its global orientation.
This is managed by setting the worldPositionStays parameter to false. When SetParent is called
with only the single Transform argument the worldPositionStays argument is set to
true.
