Class: Controls

Controls()

Set of controls which affect a view (e.g. keyboard, touch)

ControlMethod instances can be registered on this class. The methods are then combined to calculate the final parameters to change the View.

Controls is attached to a RenderLoop. Currently it affects the view of all Layer on the Stage of the RenderLoop it is attached to. A more flexible API may be provided in the future.

The ControlMethod instances are registered with an id and may be enabled, disabled and unregistered using that id. The whole Control can also be enabled or disabled.
