Phaser. Stage

new Stage(game)

The Stage controls root level display objects upon which everything is displayed. It also handles browser visibility handling and the pausing due to loss of focus.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
game Phaser.Game

Game reference to the currently running game.

Source - core/Stage.js, line 16

Extends

Members

alpha :Number

The opacity of the object.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 46

backgroundColor :number|string

Gets and sets the background color of the stage. The color can be given as a number: 0xff0000 or a hex string: '#ff0000'

Type:
  • number | string
Source - core/Stage.js, line 374

cacheAsBitmap :Boolean

Set if this display object is cached as a bitmap. This basically takes a snap shot of the display object as it is at that moment. It can provide a performance benefit for complex static displayObjects. To remove simply set this property to 'null'

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 355

<readonly> children :Array.<DisplayObject>

[read-only] The array of children of this container.

Type:
Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObjectContainer.js, line 17

currentRenderOrderID :number

Reset each frame, keeps a count of the total number of objects updated.

Source - core/Stage.js, line 65

disableVisibilityChange :boolean

By default if the browser tab loses focus the game will pause. You can stop that behavior by setting this property to true. Note that the browser can still elect to pause your game if it wishes to do so, for example swapping to another browser tab. This will cause the RAF callback to halt, effectively pausing your game, even though no in-game pause event is triggered if you enable this property.

Source - core/Stage.js, line 40

exists :boolean

If exists is true the Stage and all children are updated, otherwise it is skipped.

Default Value:
  • true
Source - core/Stage.js, line 46

filterArea :Rectangle

The area the filter is applied to like the hitArea this is used as more of an optimisation rather than figuring out the dimensions of the displayObject each frame you can set this rectangle

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 164

filters :Array.<Filter>

Sets the filters for the displayObject. IMPORTANT: This is a webGL only feature and will be ignored by the Canvas renderer.

To remove filters simply set this property to 'null'.

You cannot have a filter and a multiply blend mode active at the same time. Setting a filter will reset this objects blend mode to NORMAL.

Type:
  • Array.<Filter>
Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 307

game :Phaser.Game

A reference to the currently running Game.

Source - core/Stage.js, line 21

height :Number

The height of the displayObjectContainer, setting this will actually modify the scale to achieve the value set

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObjectContainer.js, line 61

hitArea :Rectangle|Circle|Ellipse|Polygon

This is the defined area that will pick up mouse / touch events. It is null by default. Setting it is a neat way of optimising the hitTest function that the interactionManager will use (as it will not need to hit test all the children)

Type:
  • Rectangle | Circle | Ellipse | Polygon
Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 62

mask :PIXI.Graphics

Sets a mask for the displayObject. A mask is an object that limits the visibility of an object to the shape of the mask applied to it. In PIXI a regular mask must be a PIXI.Graphics object. This allows for much faster masking in canvas as it utilises shape clipping. To remove a mask, set this property to null.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 282

name :string

The name of this object.

Default Value:
  • _stage_root
Source - core/Stage.js, line 29

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 79

pivot :Point

Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 30

position :Point

The coordinate of the object relative to the local coordinates of the parent.

Inherited From:

scale :Point

The scale factor of the object.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 22

smoothed :boolean

Enable or disable texture smoothing for all objects on this Stage. Only works for bitmap/image textures. Smoothing is enabled by default. Set to true to smooth all sprites rendered on this Stage, or false to disable smoothing (great for pixel art)

Source - core/Stage.js, line 394

visible :Boolean

The visibility of the object.

Inherited From:
Source - pixi/display/DisplayObject.js, line 54
