Vector4

struct in UnityEngine

/

Implemented in:UnityEngine.CoreModule

Description

Representation of four-dimensional vectors.

This structure is used in some places to represent four component vectors (e.g. mesh tangents, parameters for shaders). In the majority of other cases a Vector3 is used.

Static Properties

negativeInfinityShorthand for writing Vector4(float.NegativeInfinity, float.NegativeInfinity, float.NegativeInfinity, float.NegativeInfinity).
oneShorthand for writing Vector4(1,1,1,1).
positiveInfinityShorthand for writing Vector4(float.PositiveInfinity, float.PositiveInfinity, float.PositiveInfinity, float.PositiveInfinity).
zeroShorthand for writing Vector4(0,0,0,0).

Properties

magnitudeReturns the length of this vector (Read Only).
normalizedReturns this vector with a magnitude of 1 (Read Only).
sqrMagnitudeReturns the squared length of this vector (Read Only).
this[int]Access the x, y, z, w components using [0], [1], [2], [3] respectively.
wW component of the vector.
xX component of the vector.
yY component of the vector.
zZ component of the vector.

Constructors

Vector4Creates a new vector with given x, y, z, w components.

Public Methods
