Description
The FromItem
method in the Editor.GraphicsItem
class is used to convert a position from the coordinate space of a specified GraphicsItem
to the coordinate space of the current GraphicsItem
. This is useful when you need to translate positions between different graphical items within the editor environment.
Usage
To use the FromItem
method, you need to have an instance of GraphicsItem
and another GraphicsItem
from which you want to convert the position. You also need the position in the form of a Vector2
that you want to convert.
Call the method with the target GraphicsItem
and the position you want to convert:
Vector2 convertedPosition = currentGraphicsItem.FromItem(targetGraphicsItem, positionToConvert);
Example
// Assume currentGraphicsItem and targetGraphicsItem are instances of GraphicsItem
// and positionToConvert is a Vector2 representing the position in targetGraphicsItem's space.
Vector2 positionToConvert = new Vector2(10, 20);
GraphicsItem targetGraphicsItem = new GraphicsItem();
GraphicsItem currentGraphicsItem = new GraphicsItem();
// Convert the position from targetGraphicsItem's space to currentGraphicsItem's space
Vector2 convertedPosition = currentGraphicsItem.FromItem(targetGraphicsItem, positionToConvert);
// Use the converted position as needed
// For example, setting the position of another item
anotherGraphicsItem.Position = convertedPosition;
