PointLight.CoordinateSpace Property

Definition

Namespace:

Windows.UI.Composition

The Visual used to determine the light's offset. The light's offset property is relative to this Visual's coordinate space. PointLight.CoordinateSpace is a required property. If PointLight.CoordinateSpace is not set, the PointLight will not render.

public:
 property Visual ^ CoordinateSpace { Visual ^ get(); void set(Visual ^ value); };

Visual CoordinateSpace();

void CoordinateSpace(Visual value);

public Visual CoordinateSpace { get; set; }

var visual = pointLight.coordinateSpace;
pointLight.coordinateSpace = visual;

Public Property CoordinateSpace As Visual

Property Value

Visual

The Visual used to determine the light's offset.

Examples

_pointLight.CoordinateSpace = root;  

Remarks

PointLight.Offset is relative to PointLight.CoordinateSpace . Every Visual has an implicit 3D coordinate space, defined in this way:

X direction is from left to right. Y direction is from top to bottom. Z direction is point out of the plane. The original point of this coordinate is the upper-left corner of the visual, and the unit is DIP. A light's offset is defined in this coordinate.
