StaticScale

Inherits Scale

This Scale type scales the scene graph node that it is attached to by a fixed amount that does not change over time. It is possible to change the fixed scale after starting the application, but it otherwise remains unchanged. The scaling is a simple multiplication so that a Scale value of 10 means that the object will be 10 times larger than its original size.

Asset Examples

Basic

This asset creates a SceneGraphNode that only displays coordinate axes. The coordinate axis normally have a length of 1 meter and are scaled in this example by a factor of 149597870700, which means they will be 149597870700 m (1 AU) long, thus reaching the same distance as Earth’s orbit around the Sun.
