public method Update(onSurfaceChanged: XR.WSA.SurfaceObserver.SurfaceChangedDelegate): void;
public void Update(XR.WSA.SurfaceObserver.SurfaceChangedDelegate onSurfaceChanged);

Parameters

onSurfaceChangedCallback called when SurfaceChanged events are detected.

Description

Update generates SurfaceChanged events which are propagated through the specified callback. If no callback is specified, the system will throw an ArgumentNullException. Generated callbacks are synchronous with this call. Scenes containing multiple SurfaceObservers should consider using different callbacks so that events can be properly routed.

Update is a very expensive call. Its expense scales with the number of observable Surfaces. Thus, constraining your observation volume can help improve performance if you expect to call Update regularly. The engine provides the SpatialMapping.ObserverUpdate profiling tag to allow you to monitor spatial mapping performance.
