DynamicClock

Members

clockRange :ClockRange

Determines how the clock should behave when startTime or stopTime is reached.

Default Value:

• ClockRange.LOOP_STOP

clockStep :ClockStep

Determines if clock advancement is frame dependent or system clock dependent.

Default Value:

• ClockStep.SYSTEM_CLOCK_MULTIPLIER

currentTime :JulianDate

The initial time to use when switching to this clock.

Default Value:

• Iso8601.MAXIMUM_INTERVAL.start

multiplier :Number

Determines how much time advances with each tick, negative values allow for advancing backwards. If clockStep is set to ClockStep.TICK_DEPENDENT this is the number of seconds to advance. If clockStep is set to ClockStep.SYSTEM_CLOCK_MULTIPLIER this value is multiplied by the elapsed system time since the last call to tick.

Default Value:

• 1.0

startTime :JulianDate

The start time of the clock to use when looping or clamped.

Default Value:

• Iso8601.MAXIMUM_INTERVAL.start

stopTime :JulianDate

The stop time of the clock to use when looping or clamped.

Default Value:

• Iso8601.MAXIMUM_INTERVAL.stop

Methods

Duplicates a DynamicClock instance.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
result	DynamicClock	<optional>	The object onto which to store the result.

Returns:

DynamicClock The modified result parameter or a new DynamicClock instance if one was not provided.

<static> mergeProperties

Given two DynamicObjects, takes the clock properties from the second and assigns them to the first.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
targetObject	DynamicObject	The DynamicObject which will have properties merged onto it.
objectToMerge	DynamicObject	The DynamicObject containing properties to be merged.

<static> undefineProperties

Given a DynamicObject, undefines the clock associated with it.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
dynamicObject	DynamicObject	The DynamicObject to remove the clock from.
