Unity Script Reference

Projector Inherits from Behaviour

A script interface for a projector component.

The Projector can be used to project any material onto the scene - just like a real world projector. The properties exposed by this class are an exact match for the values in the Projector's inspector.

It can be used to implement blob or projected shadows. You could also project an animated texture or a render texture that films another part of the scene. The projector will render all objects in its view frustum with the provided material.

There is no shortcut property in GameObject or Component to access the Projector, so you must use GetComponent to do it:

JavaScript

function Start() {
    // Get the projector
    var proj : Projector = GetComponent (Projector);
    // Use it
    proj.nearClipPlane = 0.5;
}

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class example : MonoBehaviour {
    void Start() {
        Projector proj = GetComponent<Projector>();
        proj.nearClipPlane = 0.5F;
    }
}

import UnityEngine
import System.Collections

class example(MonoBehaviour):

    def Start():
        proj as Projector = GetComponent[of Projector]()
        proj.nearClipPlane = 0.5F

Variables

nearClipPlane	The near clipping plane distance.
farClipPlane	The far clipping plane distance.
fieldOfView	The field of view of the projection in degrees.
aspectRatio	The aspect ratio of the projection.
orthographic	Is the projection orthographic (true) or perspective (false)?
orthographicSize	Projection's half-size when in orthographic mode.
ignoreLayers	Which object layers are ignored by the projector.
material	The material that will be projected onto every object.

Inherited Functions

GetComponent	Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.
GetComponentInChildren	Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search.
GetComponentsInChildren	Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children.
GetComponents	Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject.
CompareTag	Is this game object tagged tag?
SendMessageUpwards	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour.
SendMessage	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.
BroadcastMessage	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.

ToString	Returns the name of the game object.

Inherited Class Functions

operator bool
Instantiate	Clones the object original and returns the clone.
Destroy	Removes a gameobject, component or asset.
DestroyImmediate	Destroys the object obj immediately. It is strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.
FindObjectsOfType	Returns a list of all active loaded objects of Type type.
FindObjectOfType	Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.
operator ==	Compares if two objects refer to the same.
operator !=	Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
