The WorldAnchor component allows a GameObject's position to be locked in physical space.
For example, a cube arranged on top of a physical desk with a WorldAnchor applied will remain fixed even as an observer walks around the room. This overrides all manipulation of the GameObject's position and orientation. To move the GameObject, first remove the WorldAnchor and manipulate the Transform normally.
While it is generally recommended to use Destroy instead of DestroyImmediate, it's best to call DestroyImmediate on WorldAnchor objects. Doing so will let you manipulate the Transform of the GameObject including adding a new WorldAnchor.
| isLocated | Returns true if this WorldAnchor is located (read only). A return of false typically indicates a loss of tracking. |
| GetNativeSpatialAnchorPtr | Retrieve a native pointer to the Windows.Perception.Spatial.SpatialAnchor COM object. This function calls IUnknown::AddRef on the pointer before returning it. The pointer must be released by calling IUnknown::Release. |
| SetNativeSpatialAnchorPtr | Assigns the Windows.Perception.Spatial.SpatialAnchor COM pointer maintained by this WorldAnchor. |
| OnTrackingChanged | OnTrackingChanged notifies listeners when this object's tracking state changes. |
| OnTrackingChangedDelegate | Event that is fired when this object's tracking state changes. |
| gameObject | The game object this component is attached to. A component is always attached to a game object. |
| tag | The tag of this game object. |
| transform | The Transform attached to this GameObject. |
| hideFlags | Should the object be hidden, saved with the scene or modifiable by the user? |
| name | The name of the object. |
| BroadcastMessage | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children. |
| CompareTag | Is this game object tagged with tag ? |
| GetComponent | Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't. |
| GetComponentInChildren | Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search. |
| GetComponentInParent | Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its parents. |
| GetComponents | Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject. |
| GetComponentsInChildren | Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children. |
| GetComponentsInParent | Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its parents. |
| SendMessage | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object. |
| SendMessageUpwards | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour. |
| GetInstanceID | Returns the instance id of the object. |
| ToString | Returns the name of the GameObject. |
| Destroy | Removes a gameobject, component or asset. |
| DestroyImmediate | Destroys the object obj immediately. You are strongly recommended to use Destroy instead. |
| DontDestroyOnLoad | Makes the object target not be destroyed automatically when loading a new scene. |
| FindObjectOfType | Returns the first active loaded object of Type type. |
| FindObjectsOfType | Returns a list of all active loaded objects of Type type. |
| Instantiate | Clones the object original and returns the clone. |
| bool | Does the object exist? |
| operator != | Compares if two objects refer to a different object. |
| operator == | Compares two object references to see if they refer to the same object. |
