A function that determines what commands are executed. As shown in the examples below,
the function receives the command's owner as an argument, and returns a boolean indicating if the
command should be executed.
The default is undefined, indicating that all commands are executed.
-
Default Value:
undefined
Example:
// Do not execute any commands.
scene.debugCommandFilter = function(command) {
return false;
};
// Execute only the billboard's commands. That is, only draw the billboard.
const billboards = new Cesium.BillboardCollection();
scene.debugCommandFilter = function(command) {
return command.owner === billboards;
};
This property is for debugging only; it is not for production use.
When Scene.debugShowFrustums is true, this contains
properties with statistics about the number of command execute per frustum.
totalCommands is the total number of commands executed, ignoring
overlap. commandsInFrustums is an array with the number of times
commands are executed redundantly, e.g., how many commands overlap two or
three frustums.
-
Default Value:
undefined
This property is for debugging only; it is not for production use.
When true, commands are randomly shaded. This is useful
for performance analysis to see what parts of a scene or model are
command-dense and could benefit from batching.

When true, commands are shaded based on the frustums they
overlap. Commands in the closest frustum are tinted red, commands in
the next closest are green, and commands in the farthest frustum are
blue. If a command overlaps more than one frustum, the color components
are combined, e.g., a command overlapping the first two frustums is tinted
yellow.
-
Default Value:
false

true, use Scene#logarithmicDepthFarToNearRatio.
-
Default Value:
1000.0
The focal length for use when with cardboard or WebVR.

Returns
true if the Scene#invertClassification is supported.
readonly lastRenderTime : JulianDate
Gets the simulation time when the scene was last rendered. Returns undefined if the scene has not yet been
rendered.

simulation time allowed before a render is requested. Lower values increase the number of frames rendered
and higher values decrease the number of frames rendered. If undefined, changes to
the simulation time will never request a render.
This value impacts the rate of rendering for changes in the scene like lighting, entity property updates,
and animations.
-
Default Value:
0.0
See:
The distance from the camera at which to disable the depth test of billboards, labels and points
to, for example, prevent clipping against terrain. When set to zero, the depth test should always
be applied. When less than zero, the depth test should never be applied. Setting the disableDepthTestDistance
property of a billboard, label or point will override this value.

-
Default Value:
4
Returns
true if the Scene's context supports MSAA.
Determines the uniform depth size in meters of each frustum of the multifrustum in 2D. If a primitive or model close
to the surface shows z-fighting, decreasing this will eliminate the artifact, but decrease performance. On the
other hand, increasing this will increase performance but may cause z-fighting among primitives close to the surface.
-
Default Value:
1.75e6
Gets whether or not the scene has order independent translucency enabled.
Note that this only reflects the original construction option, and there are
other factors that could prevent OIT from functioning on a given system configuration.
Returns
true if the Scene#pickPosition function is supported.
See:
When
true, enables picking translucent geometry using the depth buffer. Note that Scene#useDepthPicking must also be true for enabling this to work.
There is a decrease in performance when enabled. There are extra draw calls to write depth for translucent geometry.
-
Default Value:
false
Example:
// picking the position of a translucent primitive
viewer.screenSpaceEventHandler.setInputAction(function onLeftClick(movement) {
const pickedFeature = viewer.scene.pick(movement.position);
if (!Cesium.defined(pickedFeature)) {
// nothing picked
return;
}
const worldPosition = viewer.scene.pickPosition(movement.position);
}, Cesium.ScreenSpaceEventType.LEFT_CLICK);postProcessStages : PostProcessStageCollection
Post processing effects applied to the final render.
readonly postRender : Event
Gets the event that will be raised immediately after the scene is rendered. Subscribers to the event
receive the Scene instance as the first parameter and the current time as the second parameter.
See:
readonly postUpdate : Event
Gets the event that will be raised immediately after the scene is updated and before the scene is rendered.
Subscribers to the event receive the Scene instance as the first parameter and the current time as the second
parameter.
readonly preRender : Event
Gets the event that will be raised after the scene is updated and immediately before the scene is rendered.
Subscribers to the event receive the Scene instance as the first parameter and the current time as the second
parameter.
See:
readonly preUpdate : Event
Gets the event that will be raised before the scene is updated or rendered. Subscribers to the event
receive the Scene instance as the first parameter and the current time as the second parameter.
See:
readonly primitives : PrimitiveCollection
Gets the collection of primitives.
readonly renderError : Event
Gets the event that will be raised when an error is thrown inside the
render function.
The Scene instance and the thrown error are the only two parameters passed to the event handler.
By default, errors are not rethrown after this event is raised, but that can be changed by setting
the rethrowRenderErrors property.
When
true, rendering a frame will only occur when needed as determined by changes within the scene.
Enabling improves performance of the application, but requires using Scene#requestRender
to render a new frame explicitly in this mode. This will be necessary in many cases after making changes
to the scene in other parts of the API.
-
Default Value:
false
See:
Exceptions occurring in
render are always caught in order to raise the
renderError event. If this property is true, the error is rethrown
after the event is raised. If this property is false, the render function
returns normally after raising the event.
