vrworld/get
10-135
Property Value Description
RecordInterval Vector of two doubles
Default: [0 0]
Start and stop times for scheduled
animation recording. Corresponds to the
virtual world object Time property. Read/
write.
RemoteView 'off' | 'on'
Default: 'off'
Remote access flag. If the virtual world
is enabled for remote viewing, it is set to
'on'; otherwise, it is set to 'off'. Read/
write.
Time Double Current time in the virtual world. Read/
write.
TimeSource 'external' | 'freerun'
Default: 'external'
Source of the time for the virtual world.
If set to 'external', time in the scene is
controlled from the MATLAB interface (by
setting the Time property) or the MATLAB
interface (simulation time).
If set to 'freerun', time in the scene
advances independently based on the
system timer. Read/write.
View 'off' | 'on'
Default: 'on'
Indicates an unviewable or viewable virtual
world. Read/write.
The ClientUpdates property is set to 'on' by default and can be set by the user. When
it is set to 'off', the viewers looking at this virtual world should not update the view
according to the virtual world changes. That is, the view is frozen until this property is
changed to 'on'. This is useful for preventing tearing effects with complex animations.
Before every animation frame, set ClientUpdates to 'off', make the appropriate
modifications to the object positions, and then switch ClientUpdates back to 'on'.
The Description property defaults to '(untitled)' and can be set by the user. If the
virtual world is loaded from a VRML file containing a WorldInfo node with a title
property, the Description property is loaded from the VRML file instead.
The Nodes property is valid only when the virtual world is open. If the virtual world is
closed, Nodes always contains an empty vector.
