Method Summary

Public Methods
public	actionForKey(key: string): SCNAction Use this method to retrieve actions you scheduled using the runAction(:forKey:) or runAction(:forKey:completionHandler:) method.
public	addAnimationForKey(animation: CAAnimation, key: string): void Newly added animations begin executing after the current run loop cycle ends.SceneKit does not define any requirements for the contents of the key parameter—it need only be unique among the keys for other animations you add.
public	addAnimationPlayerForKey(player: SCNAnimationPlayer, key: string): void
public	addAudioPlayer(player: SCNAudioPlayer): void Positional audio effects from a player attached to a node are based on that node’s position relative to the audioListener position in the scene.After playback has completed, SceneKit automatically removes the audio player from the node.
public	addChildNode(child: SCNNode): void Calling this method appends the node to the end of the childNodes array.
public	addParticleSystem(system: SCNParticleSystem): void When attached to a node, a particle system’s emitter location follows that node as it moves through the scene.
public	animationForKey(key: string): CAAnimation Attempting to modify any properties of the returned object results in undefined behavior.
public	animationPlayerForKey(key: string): SCNAnimationPlayer
public	childNodeWithName(name: string): SCNNode SceneKit searches only those nodes in the node’s childNodes array.
public	childNodeWithNameRecursively(name: string, recursively: boolean): SCNNode If the recursive parameter is true, SceneKit uses a preorder traversal to search the child node subtree—that is, the block searches a node before it searches each of the node’s children, and it searches all children of a node before searching any of that node’s sibling nodes.
public	childNodesPassingTest(predicate: function(child: SCNNode, stop: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): boolean): SCNNode[] Use this method to search for nodes using a test you specify.
public	clone(): SCNNode This method recursively copies the node and its child nodes.
public	convertPositionFrom(position: SCNVector3, node: SCNNode): SCNVector3 Converts a position to the node’s coordinate space from that defined by another node.

public	copy(): SCNNode
public	destory()
public	enumerateChildNodes(block: function(child: SCNNode, stop: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): void): void SceneKit uses a recursive preorder traversal to process the child node subtree—that is, the block runs for a node before it runs for each of the node’s children, and it processes all children of a node before processing any of that node’s sibling nodes.
public	enumerateHierarchy(block: function(arg1: SCNNode, arg2: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): void): void SceneKit uses a recursive preorder traversal to process the child node subtree—that is, the block runs for a node before it runs for each of the node’s children, and it processes all children of a node before processing any of that node’s sibling nodes.This method is equivalent to the enumerateChildNodes(_:) method, but unlike that method it also runs the block to process the node itself, not just its child nodes.
public	flattenedClone(): SCNNode Rendering complex node hierarchies can incur a performance cost.
public	hitTestWithSegmentFromTo(pointA: SCNVector3, pointB: SCNVector3, options: Map<string, Object>): SCNHitTestResult[] Hit-testing is the process of finding elements of a scene located along a specified line segment in the scene’s coordinate space (or that of a particular node in the scene).

public	removeAllActions(): void When SceneKit removes an action from a node, it skips any remaining animation the action would perform.
public	removeAllAnimations(): void Required.
public	removeAllAudioPlayers(): void Removes all audio players attached to the node, stopping playback.
public	removeAllParticleSystems(): void Removes any particle systems directly attached to the node.

public	removeFromParentNode(): void Removing nodes from the node hierarchy serves two purposes.
public	removeParticleSystem(system: SCNParticleSystem): void This method has no effect if the system parameter does not reference a particle system directly attached to the node.
public	replaceChildNodeWith(oldChild: SCNNode, newChild: SCNNode): void If both the child and child2 nodes are children of the node, calling this method swaps their positions in the array.
public	resumeAnimationForKey(key: string): void This method has no effect if no animation is attached to the object with the specified key or if the specified animation is not currently paused.

public	runActionCompletionHandler(action: SCNAction, block: function(): void): void The new action is processed the next time SceneKit prepares to render a frame.SceneKit calls your block after the action’s duration is complete.
public	runActionForKey(action: SCNAction, key: string): void This method is identical to runAction(_:), but the action is stored and identified so that you can retrieve or cancel it later.
public	runActionForKeyCompletionHandler(action: SCNAction, key: string, block: function(): void): void This method is identical to runAction(_:completionHandler:), but the action is stored and identified so that you can retrieve or cancel it later.
public	setAnimationSpeedForKey(speed: number, key: string): void Required.
public	setValueForKey(value: , key: )
public	setValueForKeyPath(value: , keyPath: )
public	setWorldTransform(worldTransform: SCNMatrix4): void

public static	conformsTo(protocol: Object): boolean A class is said to “conform to” a protocol if it adopts the protocol or inherits from another class that adopts it.
public static	debugDescription(): string
public static	defaultPlaceholderForMarkerWithBinding(marker: Object, binding: string): Object The marker can be nil or one of the constants described in Selection Markers.
public static	description(): string The debugger’s print-object command invokes this method to produce a textual description of an object.NSObject's implementation of this method simply prints the name of the class.

public static	instanceMethodFor(aSelector: function): function An error is generated if instances of the receiver can’t respond to aSelector messages.Use this method to ask the class object for the implementation of instance methods only.
public static	instancesRespondTo(aSelector: function): boolean If aSelector messages are forwarded to other objects, instances of the class are able to receive those messages without error even though this method returns false.To ask the class whether it, rather than its instances, can respond to a particular message, send to the class instead the NSObject protocol instance method responds(to:).
public static	isKeyExcludedFromWebScript(name: UnsafePointer<Int8>): boolean The default value is true.
public static	isSelectorExcludedFromWebScript(selector: function): boolean Only methods with valid parameters and return types are exported to the WebKit JavaScript environment.
public static	isSubclassOf(aClass: Object): boolean Returns a Boolean value that indicates whether the receiving class is a subclass of, or identical to, a given class.
public static	keyPathsForValuesAffectingValueForKey(key: string): Set<String> When an observer for the key is registered with an instance of the receiving class, key-value observing itself automatically observes all of the key paths for the same instance, and sends change notifications for the key to the observer when the value for any of those key paths changes.The default implementation of this method searches the receiving class for a method whose name matches the pattern +keyPathsForValuesAffecting<Key>, and returns the result of invoking that method if it is found.
public static	load(): void The load() message is sent to classes and categories that are both dynamically loaded and statically linked, but only if the newly loaded class or category implements a method that can respond.The order of initialization is as follows:All initializers in any framework you link to.All +load methods in your image.All C++ static initializers and C/C++ attribute(constructor) functions in your image.All initializers in frameworks that link to you.In addition:A class’s +load method is called after all of its superclasses’ +load methods.A category +load method is called after the class’s own +load method.In a custom implementation of load() you can therefore safely message other unrelated classes from the same image, but any load() methods implemented by those classes may not have run yet.ImportantCustom implementations of the load method for Swift classes bridged to Objective-C are not called automatically.
public static	resolveClassMethod(sel: function): boolean This method allows you to dynamically provide an implementation for a given selector.
public static	resolveInstanceMethod(sel: function): boolean This method and resolveClassMethod(_:) allow you to dynamically provide an implementation for a given selector.An Objective-C method is simply a C function that take at least two arguments—self and _cmd.

public static	webScriptNameForKey(name: UnsafePointer<Int8>): string Returns the scripting environment name for an attribute specified by a key.
public get	accessibilityFocusedUIElement: Object You can assume that the search for the focus has already been narrowed down to the accessibility element.
public get	accessibilityNotifiesWhenDestroyed: boolean In macOS 10.9 and later, a custom accessibility object that is an NSObject subclass can post accessibility notifications if it meets the following criteria:The lifetime of the custom accessibility object must match the lifetime of the corresponding element in the app's UI.Typically, a custom accessibility object that acts as a proxy for an onscreen UI element gets autoreleased and deallocated immediately after the app responds to an accessibility request. Such an object can’t post accessibility notifications, because all registered observers get removed as soon as the object is deallocated. To correct this, an app must guarantee that a custom accessibility object remains allocated for as long as its corresponding UI element remains visible.The object must post the NSAccessibilityUIElementDestroyedNotification notification at the appropriate time. The appropriate time is most likely to be when the corresponding UI element is removed from the screen, but it can also be when the object itself is deallocated. The object must implement accessibilityNotifiesWhenDestroyed and return true.
public get	attributeKeys: string[] NSObject’s implementation of attributeKeys simply calls [[self classDescription] attributeKeys].
public get	autoContentAccessingProxy: Object This property returns a proxy for the receiving object if the receiver adopts the NSDiscardableContent protocol and still has content that has not been discarded.The proxy calls beginContentAccess() on the receiver to keep the content available as long as the proxy lives, and calls endContentAccess() when the proxy is deallocated.The wrapper object is otherwise a subclass of NSProxy and forwards messages to the original receiver object as an NSProxy does.This method can be used to hide an NSDiscardableContent object's content volatility by creating an object that responds to the same messages but holds the contents of the original receiver available as long as the created proxy lives. Thus hidden, the NSDiscardableContent object (by way of the proxy) can be given out to unsuspecting recipients of the object who would otherwise not know they might have to call beginContentAccess() and endContentAccess() around particular usages (specific to each NSDiscardableContent object) of the NSDiscardableContent object.
public get	classCode: number This property is used by Cocoa’s scripting support classes.
public get	classDescription: NSClassDescription
public get	classForArchiver: Object

public get	classForKeyedArchiver: Object The object will be encoded as if it were a member of the class.
public get	className: string
public get	exposedBindings: string[] A subclass can override this method to remove bindings that are exposed by a superclass that are not appropriate for the subclass.
public get	hashValue: number
public get	isSelectable: boolean
public get	objectForWebScript: Object The methods of the object are exposed to the script environment.
public get	objectSpecifier: NSScriptObjectSpecifier
public get	toManyRelationshipKeys: string[]
public get	toOneRelationshipKeys: string[]
public get	webFrame: WebFrame Only implemented by containers that are based on the WebKit’s plug-in architecture.

public	accessibilityElementIsFocused(): boolean Returns a Boolean value indicating whether an assistive technology is focused on the accessibility element.
public	accessibilityHitTest(point: CGPoint): Object You can assume that the specified point has already been determined to lie within the accessibility element's frame. Override this method to do deeper hit-testing by identifying which child element, if any, contains the point. NSMatrix, for example, identifies which of its cells contains the point and propagates the hit-test to it. If the specified point is not contained within one of the accessibility element's children, either return self or, if available, invoke the superclass's implementation. The default NSView and NSCell implementations test whether the accessibility element is an ignored element and, if it is, return the receiver's first unignored parent; otherwise they return self.

public	accessibilitySetOverrideValueForAttribute(value: Object, attribute: string): boolean this method was deprecated. This method is for changing the set of attributes on an instance, as an alternative to subclassing.This method works only on objects whose class already implements the NSAccessibility protocol.
public	accessibilitySetValueForAttribute(value: Object, attribute: string): void this method was deprecated. User interface classes must implement this method if any of its attributes are settable.
public	actionProperty(): string See Table 1The documentation for property-list constants for the properties for person and group records.
public	addObserverForKeyPath(observer: NSObject, keyPath: string, options: NSKeyValueObservingOptions, context: Object): void Neither the object receiving this message, nor observer, are retained.
public	applicationDelegateHandlesKey(sender: NSApplication, key: string): boolean The method should return true if the delegate for the app sender handles the key specified by key, which means it can get or set the scriptable property or element that corresponds to that key.

public	authorizationViewReleasedAuthorization(view: SFAuthorizationView): void This method is called after deauthorization has been approved (either you called the deauthorize: method, or the user clicked an open lock icon and the authorizationViewShouldDeauthorize: delegate method did not cancel the operation), and before the user is deauthorized (that is, before the authorizationViewDidDeauthorize: delegate method is called).
public	authorizationViewShouldDeauthorize(view: SFAuthorizationView): number The delegate can react to this before deauthorization happens and avoid it by returning false.
public	awakeAfterUsing(aDecoder: NSCoder): Object You can use this method to eliminate redundant objects created by the coder.

See:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnboundingvolume/2034705-boundingbox

public get boundingSphere: {center: SCNVector3, radius: number} source

Scene Kit defines a bounding sphere in the local coordinate space using a center point and a radius. For example, if a node’s bounding sphere has the center point {3, 1, 4} and radius 2.0, all points in the vertex data of node’s geometry (and any geometry attached to its child nodes) lie within 2.0 units of the center point.The coordinates provided when reading this property are valid only if the object has a volume to be measured. For a geometry containing no vertex data or a node containing no geometry (and whose child nodes, if any, contain no geometry), the values center and radius are both zero.

public get presentation: SCNNode source

When you use implicit animation (see SCNTransaction) to change a node’s properties, those node properties are set immediately to their target values, even though the animated node content appears to transition from the old property values to the new. During the animation SceneKit maintains a copy of the node, called the presentation node, whose properties reflect the transitory values determined by any in-flight animations currently affecting the node. The presentation node’s properties provide a close approximation to the version of the node that is currently displayed. SceneKit also uses the presentation node when computing the results of explicit animations, physics, and constraints.Do not modify the properties of the presentation node. (Attempting to do so results in undefined behavior.) Instead, you use the presentation node to read current animation values—for example, to create a new animation starting at those values. The presentation node has no parent or child nodes. To access animated properties of related nodes, use the node’s own parent and childNodes properties and the presentation property of each related node.

See:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1407951-childnode

public childNodeWithNameRecursively(name: string, recursively: boolean): SCNNode source

If the recursive parameter is true, SceneKit uses a preorder traversal to search the child node subtree—that is, the block searches a node before it searches each of the node’s children, and it searches all children of a node before searching any of that node’s sibling nodes. Otherwise, SceneKit searches only those nodes in the node’s childNodes array.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
name	string		The name of the node to search for.
recursively	boolean	optional default: true	true to search the entire child node subtree, or false to search only the node’s immediate children.

Return:

SCNNode (nullable: true)

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1407951-childnode

public childNodesPassingTest(predicate: function(child: SCNNode, stop: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): boolean): SCNNode[] source

Use this method to search for nodes using a test you specify. For example, you can search for empty nodes using a block that returns YES for nodes whose light, camera, and geometry properties are all nil.SceneKit uses a recursive preorder traversal to search the child node subtree—that is, the block searches a node before it searches each of the node’s children, and it searches all children of a node before searching any of that node’s sibling nodes.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
predicate	function(child: SCNNode, stop: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): boolean		The block to apply to the node’s child and descendant nodes .The block takes two parameters:child The child node currently being searched. stop A reference to a Boolean value.

See:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1407982-childnodes

public clone(): SCNNode source

This method recursively copies the node and its child nodes. For a nonrecursive copy, use the inherited copy() method, which creates a copy of the node without any child nodes.Cloning or copying a node creates a duplicate of the node object, but not the geometries, lights, cameras, and other SceneKit objects attached to it—instead, each copied node shares references to these objects.This behavior means that you can use cloning to, for example, place the same geometry at several locations within a scene without maintaining multiple copies of the geometry and its materials. However, it also means that changes to the objects attached to one node will affect other nodes that share the same attachments. For example, to render two copies of a node using different materials, you must copy both the node and its geometry before assigning a new material.- (void)duplicateNode:(SCNNode )node withMaterial:(SCNMaterial )material { SCNNode newNode = [node clone]; newNode.geometry = [node.geometry copy]; newNode.geometry.firstMaterial = material; } Multiple copies of an SCNGeometry object efficiently share the same vertex data, so you can copy geometries without a significant performance penalty.- (void)duplicateNode:(SCNNode )node withMaterial:(SCNMaterial )material { SCNNode newNode = [node clone]; newNode.geometry = [node.geometry copy]; newNode.geometry.firstMaterial = material; }

public copy(): SCNNode source

This is a convenience method for classes that adopt the NSCopying protocol. An exception is raised if there is no implementation for copy(with:).NSObject does not itself support the NSCopying protocol. Subclasses must support the protocol and implement the copy(with:) method. A subclass version of the copy(with:) method should send the message to super first, to incorporate its implementation, unless the subclass descends directly from NSObject.

Override:

NSObject#copy

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1408032-enumeratechildnodes

public enumerateHierarchy(block: function(arg1: SCNNode, arg2: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): void): void source

SceneKit uses a recursive preorder traversal to process the child node subtree—that is, the block runs for a node before it runs for each of the node’s children, and it processes all children of a node before processing any of that node’s sibling nodes.This method is equivalent to the enumerateChildNodes(_:) method, but unlike that method it also runs the block to process the node itself, not just its child nodes.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
block	function(arg1: SCNNode, arg2: UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjCBool>): void		The block to apply to the node’s child and descendant nodes.The block takes two parameters:childThe child node currently being evaluated.stopA reference to a Boolean value.

Return:

void

See:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1642248-enumeratehierarchy

public flattenedClone(): SCNNode source

Rendering complex node hierarchies can incur a performance cost. Each geometry and material requires a separate draw command to be sent to the GPU, and each draw command comes with a performance overhead. If you plan for a portion of your scene’s node hierarchy to remain static (with respect to itself, if not the rest of the scene), use this method to create a single node containing all elements of that node hierarchy that SceneKit can render using fewer draw commands.

Return:

SCNNode

See:

public hitTestWithSegmentFromTo(pointA: SCNVector3, pointB: SCNVector3, options: Map<string, Object>): SCNHitTestResult[] source

Hit-testing is the process of finding elements of a scene located along a specified line segment in the scene’s coordinate space (or that of a particular node in the scene). For example, you can use this method to determine whether a projectile launched by a game character will hit its target.To search for the scene element corresponding to a two-dimensional point in the rendered image, use the renderer’s hitTest(_:options:) method instead.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
pointA	SCNVector3		An endpoint of the line segment to search along, specified in the node’s local coordinate system.
pointB	SCNVector3		The other endpoint of the line segment to search along, specified in the node’s local coordinate system.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
key	string
duration	number

Return:

void

public removeAnimationForKeyFadeOutDuration(key: string, duration: number): void source

Use this method to create smooth transitions between the effects of multiple animations. For example, the geometry loaded from a scene file for a game character may have associated animations for player actions such as walking and jumping. When the player lands from a jump, you remove the jump animation so the character continues walking. If you use the removeAnimation(forKey:) method to remove the jump animation, SceneKit abruptly switches from the current frame of the jump animation to the current frame of the walk animation. If you use the removeAnimation(forKey:fadeOutDuration:) method instead, SceneKit plays both animations at once during that duration and interpolates vertex positions from one animation to the other, creating a smooth transition.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
key	string		A string identifying an attached animation to remove.
duration	number		The duration for transitioning out of the animation’s effect before it is removed.

Return:

void

See:

player	SCNAudioPlayer		An audio player attached to the node.

Return:

void

See:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1522767-removeaudioplayer

public removeFromParentNode(): void source

Removing nodes from the node hierarchy serves two purposes. Nodes own their contents (child nodes or attached lights, geometries, and other objects), so deallocating unneeded nodes can reduce memory usage. Additionally, SceneKit does more work at rendering time with a large, complex node hierarchy, so removing nodes whose contents you don’t need to display can improve rendering performance.

Return:

void

See:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scenekit/scnnode/1407991-removefromparentnode

public removeParticleSystem(system: SCNParticleSystem): void source

This method has no effect if the system parameter does not reference a particle system directly attached to the node.

If both the child and child2 nodes are children of the node, calling this method swaps their positions in the array. Note that removing a node from the node hierarchy may result in it being deallocated.Calling this method results in undefined behavior if the child parameter does not refer to a child of this node.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
oldChild	SCNNode
newChild	SCNNode

Return:

void

public runActionForKey(action: SCNAction, key: string): void source

This method is identical to runAction(_:), but the action is stored and identified so that you can retrieve or cancel it later. If an action using the same key is already running, SceneKit removes it before adding the new action.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
action	SCNAction		The action to be performed.
key	string	nullable: true	A unique key used to identify the action.

Return:

void

public runActionForKeyCompletionHandler(action: SCNAction, key: string, block: function(): void): void source

This method is identical to runAction(_:completionHandler:), but the action is stored and identified so that you can retrieve or cancel it later. If an action using the same key is already running, SceneKit removes it before adding the new action.SceneKit calls your block after the action’s duration is complete. For example, you can use this method with a wait action to execute some code after a timed delay. If during the delay period you need to prevent the code from running, use the removeAction(forKey:) method to cancel it.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
action	SCNAction		The action to be performed.
key	string	nullable: true	A unique key used to identify the action.
block	function(): void	optional default: null nullable: true	A completion block called when the action completes.

Return:

void

public setAnimationSpeedForKey(speed: number, key: string): void source

Required.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
speed	number
key	string

Return:

void

public setValueForKey(value: , key: ) source

If key identifies a to-one relationship, relate the object specified by value to the receiver, unrelating the previously related object if there was one. Given a collection object and a key that identifies a to-many relationship, relate the objects contained in the collection to the receiver, unrelating previously related objects if there were any. The search pattern that setValue:forKey: uses is described in Accessor Search Patterns in Key-Value Coding Programming Guide.In a reference-counted environment, if the instance variable is accessed directly, value is retained.

Override:

NSObject#setValueForKey

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
value	*
key	*

public setValueForKeyPath(value: , keyPath: ) source

The default implementation of this method gets the destination object for each relationship using value(forKey:), and sends the final object a setValue(_:forKey:) message.Special ConsiderationsWhen using this method, and the destination object does not implement an accessor for the value, the default behavior is for that object to retain value rather than copy or assign value.

Override:

NSObject#setValueForKeyPath

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
value	*
keyPath	*

public setWorldTransform(worldTransform: SCNMatrix4): void source

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
worldTransform	SCNMatrix4

Return:

void

public valueForKeyPath(keyPath: , usePresentation: boolean): source

The default implementation gets the destination object for each relationship using value(forKey:) and returns the result of a value(forKey:) message to the final object.

Override:

NSObject#valueForKeyPath

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
keyPath	*
usePresentation	boolean	optional default: true

Return:

public valueForUndefinedKey(key: string): Object source

Subclasses can override this method to return an alternate value for undefined keys. The default implementation raises an NSUndefinedKeyException.

Override:

NSObject#valueForUndefinedKey

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
key	string		A string that is not equal to the name of any of the receiver's properties.

Return:

Object (nullable: true)
