Detailed Description
The audio listener is the point in the scene from where all the sounds are heard.
The audio listener defines the global properties of the audio environment, it defines where and how sounds and musics are heard.
If sf::View is the eyes of the user, then sf::Listener is his ears (by the way, they are often linked together – same position, orientation, etc.).
sf::Listener is a simple interface, which allows to setup the listener in the 3D audio environment (position, direction and up vector), and to adjust the global volume.
Because the listener is unique in the scene, sf::Listener only contains static functions and doesn't have to be instantiated.
Usage example:
Definition at line 42 of file Listener.hpp.

|
static |
Get the current forward vector of the listener in the scene.
- Returns
- Listener's forward vector (not normalized)
- See also
- setDirection
|
static |
Get the current value of the global volume.
- Returns
- Current global volume, in the range [0, 100]
- See also
- setGlobalVolume
|
static |
Get the current position of the listener in the scene.
- Returns
- Listener's position
- See also
- setPosition
|
static |
Get the current upward vector of the listener in the scene.
- Returns
- Listener's upward vector (not normalized)
- See also
- setUpVector
|
static |
Set the forward vector of the listener in the scene.
The direction (also called "at vector") is the vector pointing forward from the listener's perspective. Together with the up vector, it defines the 3D orientation of the listener in the scene. The direction vector doesn't have to be normalized. The default listener's direction is (0, 0, -1).
- Parameters
-
x X coordinate of the listener's direction y Y coordinate of the listener's direction z Z coordinate of the listener's direction
- See also
- getDirection, setUpVector, setPosition

static |
Set the forward vector of the listener in the scene.
The direction (also called "at vector") is the vector pointing forward from the listener's perspective. Together with the up vector, it defines the 3D orientation of the listener in the scene. The direction vector doesn't have to be normalized. The default listener's direction is (0, 0, -1).
- Parameters
-
direction New listener's direction
- See also
- getDirection, setUpVector, setPosition
|
static |
Change the global volume of all the sounds and musics.
The volume is a number between 0 and 100; it is combined with the individual volume of each sound / music. The default value for the volume is 100 (maximum).
- Parameters
-
volume New global volume, in the range [0, 100]
- See also
- getGlobalVolume
|
static |
Set the position of the listener in the scene.
The default listener's position is (0, 0, 0).
- Parameters
-
x X coordinate of the listener's position y Y coordinate of the listener's position z Z coordinate of the listener's position
- See also
- getPosition, setDirection
|
static |
Set the position of the listener in the scene.
The default listener's position is (0, 0, 0).
- Parameters
-
position New listener's position
- See also
- getPosition, setDirection
|
static |
Set the upward vector of the listener in the scene.
The up vector is the vector that points upward from the listener's perspective. Together with the direction, it defines the 3D orientation of the listener in the scene. The up vector doesn't have to be normalized. The default listener's up vector is (0, 1, 0). It is usually not necessary to change it, especially in 2D scenarios.
- Parameters
-
x X coordinate of the listener's up vector y Y coordinate of the listener's up vector z Z coordinate of the listener's up vector
- See also
- getUpVector, setDirection, setPosition
|
static |
Set the upward vector of the listener in the scene.
The up vector is the vector that points upward from the listener's perspective. Together with the direction, it defines the 3D orientation of the listener in the scene. The up vector doesn't have to be normalized. The default listener's up vector is (0, 1, 0). It is usually not necessary to change it, especially in 2D scenarios.
- Parameters
-
upVector New listener's up vector
- See also
- getUpVector, setDirection, setPosition
