Detailed Description#
By itself a QEntity
is an empty shell. The behavior of a QEntity
object is defined by the QComponent
objects it references. Each Qt3D backend aspect will be able to interpret and process an Entity by recognizing which components it is made up of. One aspect may decide to only process entities composed of a single QTransform
component whilst another may focus on QMouseHandler
.

- class PySide6.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QEntity([parent=None])#
- Parameters:
parent –
PySide6.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QNode
Constructs a new QEntity
instance with parent
as parent.
- PySide6.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QEntity.addComponent(comp)#
- Parameters:
Adds a new reference to the component comp
.
Note
If the QComponent
has no parent, the QEntity
will set itself as its parent thereby taking ownership of the component.
- PySide6.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QEntity.components()#
- Return type:
.list of Qt3DCore.QComponent
Returns the list of QComponent
instances the entity is referencing.
- PySide6.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QEntity.parentEntity()#
- Return type:
Returns the parent QEntity
instance of this entity. If the immediate parent isn’t a QEntity
, this function traverses up the scene hierarchy until a parent QEntity
is found. If no QEntity
parent can be found, returns null.
- PySide6.Qt3DCore.Qt3DCore.QEntity.removeComponent(comp)#
- Parameters:
Removes the reference to comp
.
