Synopsis

Functions

Detailed Description

The Qt3D run loop is controlled by the Qt3DRender::QAspectEngine.

QAbstractAspect subclasses can be registered by calling Qt3DCore::QAspectEngine::registerAspect() which will take care of registering the aspect and in turn that will call Qt3DCore::QAbstractAspect::onRegistered();

The simulation loop is launched as soon as a root QEntity is set on the QAspectEngine . This is followed by a call to onEngineStartup() on each aspect so that they can start their simulation work.

The simulation loop is stopped when the root entity is set to Qt3DCore::QEntityPtr(). This calls onEngineShutdown() on each aspect so that they can stop performing their simulation work.

Setting a new valid root entity would restart the simulation loop again.

class PySide2.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QAspectEngine([parent=None])
param parent

QObject

PySide2.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QAspectEngine.aspects()
Return type

Returns the aspects owned by the aspect engine.

PySide2.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QAspectEngine.executeCommand(command)
Parameters

command – unicode

Return type

object

Executes the given command on aspect engine. Valid commands are:

  • “list aspects”

Returns the reply for the command.

PySide2.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QAspectEngine.registerAspect(aspect)
Parameters

aspect – QAbstractAspect

Registers a new aspect to the AspectManager. The QAspectEngine takes ownership of the aspect and will delete it when the aspect is unregistered.

PySide2.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QAspectEngine.registerAspect(name)
Parameters

name – unicode

PySide2.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QAspectEngine.rootEntity()
Return type

QSharedPointer

Returns the root entity of the aspect engine.
