|
|
<p>Sometimes, it's useful to generate child objects instead of defining them statically.
|
The Flexalon Cloner can generate objects from a set of prefabs iteratively or randomly,
|
and can optionally bind to a data source.
|

|

|
|
<table><tr><td>Objects</td>
|
<td>Prefabs which should be cloned as children.</td></tr>
|
<tr><td>Clone Type</td>
|
<td>If Iterative, the cloner will clone each prefab in the Objects list in order and then repeat. If Random, the cloner will select randomly from the prefabs.</td></tr>
|
<tr><td>Random Seed</td>
|
<td>Seed used for the Random clone type, to ensure results remain consistent.</td></tr>
|
<tr><td>Count</td>
|
<td>Number of clones to create.</td></tr>
|
<tr><td>Data Source</td>
|
<td>Can be an gameObject with a component that implements DataSource. The number of objects cloned is set to the number of items in the Data property.</td></tr></table>
|
|
<p id="databinding" class="text-xl mt-10">Data Binding</p>
|
<p>When the Cloner creates objects from a DataSource, it will search the cloned objects
|
for any component which implements DataBinding to bind the data entry from the data source to the visual item.
|
The component can then use this data to change its appearance.
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="flex ml-10 m-5 mb-10"><img src="../images/doc-google-search.png" alt="Google Search Example"></div>
|
|
<p>Putting these pieces together, you can create this Google image search example, which you can find in the sample scenes.
|
</p>
|
<p>In this example, the Cloner is configured to use a GoogleImageDataSource component as its DataSource and to instantiate the RemoteTexture prefab.
|
This prefab has a RemoteTextureDataBinding component which implements DataBinding.
|
</p>
|
<p>When the cloner gets new data from the data source, it instantiates a RemoteTexture for each data entry, finds DataBinding component,
|
and passes along the data. The RemoteTextureDataBinding uses this data to download the image texture and apply it to its material.
|
</p>
|
<p>The gameObject with the Cloner component also has a wrapping Flexible Layout to arrange the images in sequence.
|
Finally, the RemoteTexture prefab has a custom adapter called IamgeAdapter which ensures the images maintain their aspect ratio.
