Camera

The Camera Object effectively decides what is visible of a Scene2D when switched to Player View or when the Project is run. The user can control this with its Attributes.

Attributes

Altering a Camera's Position and Rotation may change how Objects are displayed in Player View, cutting off parts of an Object if they fall outside the Camera's bounds. As default, all of these values are set to 0. These can be used to shift the bounds of a Camera.

Camera Transformations.

The Size configures the dimensions of the Camera's bounds and can be used to reduce or extend the confines of a Camera. The default is 1920x1080 in the above example, but this can change as it ultimately depends on the size of the Screen that a Scene2D resides in.

Link viewport to screen size can be toggled when a Camera is in a Scene that belongs to a Screen. When it is switched off, the user can edit the Size.

Editor View vs. Player View

Before Player View is enabled, the bounds of the Camera as well as the entire Object are visible in Editor View. Player View is highlighted at the top of the image.

Camera Editor View.

Once Player View is activated, only half of the Ellipse is visible and the boundary lines of the Camera disappear.

Camera Player View.

Player View gives a preview of what will be shown when the Scene2D is playing.
