Adds an external UiNode gravity well for consideration when interacting with this Panel.

The on click Event.
This event is dispatched when the element has been activated (clicked, selected).

This event is dispatched when the cursor encounters the Panel shape edge and the Panel is set to constrain cursor movement on the edge side.

The on cursor off edge event.
This event is dispatched when the cursor is no longer being constrained by the shape edge. This can occur when the cursor, which had just been constrained by the shape edge, is moved away from the edge towards the interior of the Panel. This can also occur if the side of the shape edge changes while the cursor is being constrained (moving from top to right side for instance).

Alignment is defined as what side the Node position is in relative to the planar, XY element bounds. A horizontal left alignment would result in the node position being on the left side of the bounds area. A vertical top alignment would result in the node position being on the top side of the bounds area.

Sets the anchor position of the Node's transform. Rotations, scaling, and translations of the transform will take place around this point. Changing the anchor point will recalculate the transform to the new anchor point.

Sets whether the cursor is visible while inside the UiPanel.
the cursor visiblity flag.
Sets the edge constraint and Panel transition properties for a side of the Panel shape.
Panels that constrain the cursor can also offer the ability for the cursor to escape a side when enough movement is attempted and to also automatically transition to another Panel once the cursor escapes a side.
the Side of the boundary shape to set the properties for.
how much the cursor must attempt to move relatively (in scene units) to escape the side. A value less than 0 means no escape possible (always constrained). A value of 0 means the cursor will not be constrained on this side. A value greater than 0 constrains the cursor up to the magnitude.
the optional UiPanel to have the cursor transition to when the cursor escapes. Use nullptr for no transition.
Sets the edge constraint for a side of the Panel shape.
Panels that constrain the cursor can also offer the ability for the cursor to escape a side when enough movement is attempted.
the Side of the boundary shape to set the properties for.
how much the cursor must attempt to move relatively (in scene units) to escape the side. A value less than 0 means no escape possible (always constrained). A value of 0 means the cursor will not be constrained on this side. A value greater than 0 constrains the cursor up to the magnitude.

The UI events that will be passed through are the cursor interaction events like onHoverEnter, onHoverExit, and onActivate.
the event pass through flag.
Sets all descendant UiNodes to either pass through events or not.
This call is handy if this UiNode potentially has many internal UiNode children in the Node hierarchy but wants all input events to pass through them to be processed and dispatched by this UiNode parent.
the event pass through flag.
Sets the sound ID to be played for the UI event.
the sound event.
the name of the sound to play for the sound event.
Sets whether the gravity well is enabled.
Sets the gravity well properties for this UiNode.
The default gravity well properties for a UiNode are a sharp cornered rectangular BoundaryShape that matches the UiNode's local AABB that snaps to center of the shape. This should be sufficient in many situations and all that needs to be done to turn on the gravity well for the UiNode is to setGravityWellEnabled(true).
The default BoundaryShape size is (0,0), which instructs the UiNode to use its own local AABB for the shape size and offset. Setting a size greater than 0 in either X or Y will turn off the automatic use of local AABB and will use the specified size and offset of the BoundaryShape instead. Setting the size back to (0,0) will once again inform the UiNode to use the local AABB for shape parameters.
