render(displayObject [, matrix] [, clear])

This function will draw the display object to the RenderTexture.

In versions of Phaser prior to 2.4.0 the second parameter was a Phaser.Point object. This is now a Matrix allowing you much more control over how the Display Object is rendered. If you need to replicate the earlier behavior please use Phaser.RenderTexture.renderXY instead.

If you wish for the displayObject to be rendered taking its current scale, rotation and translation into account then either pass null, leave it undefined or pass displayObject.worldTransform as the matrix value.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
displayObject	Phaser.Sprite | Phaser.Image | Phaser.Text | Phaser.BitmapText | Phaser.Group			The display object to render to this texture.
matrix	Phaser.Matrix	<optional>		Optional matrix to apply to the display object before rendering. If null or undefined it will use the worldTransform matrix of the given display object.
clear	boolean	<optional>	false	If true the texture will be cleared before the display object is drawn.

Inherited From:

• Phaser.RenderTexture#render

Source:

src/gameobjects/RenderTexture.js line 181

renderRawXY(displayObject, x, y [, clear])

This function will draw the display object to the RenderTexture at the given coordinates.

When the display object is drawn it doesn't take into account scale, rotation or translation.

If you need those then use RenderTexture.renderXY instead.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
displayObject	Phaser.Sprite | Phaser.Image | Phaser.Text | Phaser.BitmapText | Phaser.Group			The display object to render to this texture.
x	number			The x position to render the object at.
y	number			The y position to render the object at.
clear	boolean	<optional>	false	If true the texture will be cleared before the display object is drawn.

Inherited From:

• Phaser.RenderTexture#renderRawXY

Source:

src/gameobjects/RenderTexture.js line 152

renderXY(displayObject, x, y [, clear])

This function will draw the display object to the RenderTexture at the given coordinates.

When the display object is drawn it takes into account scale and rotation.

If you don't want those then use RenderTexture.renderRawXY instead.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
displayObject	Phaser.Sprite | Phaser.Image | Phaser.Text | Phaser.BitmapText | Phaser.Group			The display object to render to this texture.
x	number			The x position to render the object at.
y	number			The y position to render the object at.
clear	boolean	<optional>	false	If true the texture will be cleared before the display object is drawn.

Source:

src/gameobjects/RenderTexture.js line 119

resize(width, height, updateBase)

Resizes the RenderTexture.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
width	number	The width to resize to.
height	number	The height to resize to.
updateBase	boolean	Should the baseTexture.width and height values be resized as well?

Inherited From:

• Phaser.RenderTexture#resize

Source:

src/gameobjects/RenderTexture.js line 219

setFixedWidth(width [, lineAlignment])

If you need this RetroFont to have a fixed width and custom alignment you can set the width here. If text is wider than the width specified it will be cropped off.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
width	number			Width in pixels of this RetroFont. Set to zero to disable and re-enable automatic resizing.
lineAlignment	string	<optional>	'left'	Align the text within this width. Set to RetroFont.ALIGN_LEFT (default), RetroFont.ALIGN_RIGHT or RetroFont.ALIGN_CENTER.

Source:

src/gameobjects/RetroFont.js line 276

setFrame(frame)

Specifies the region of the baseTexture that this texture will use.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
frame	Rectangle	The frame of the texture to set it to

Inherited From:

Source:

src/pixi/textures/Texture.js line 187

setText(content [, multiLine] [, characterSpacing] [, lineSpacing] [, lineAlignment] [, allowLowerCase])

A helper function that quickly sets lots of variables at once, and then updates the text.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
content	string			The text of this sprite.
multiLine	boolean	<optional>	false	Set to true if you want to support carriage-returns in the text and create a multi-line sprite instead of a single line.
characterSpacing	number	<optional>	0	To add horizontal spacing between each character specify the amount in pixels.
lineSpacing	number	<optional>	0	To add vertical spacing between each line of text, set the amount in pixels.
lineAlignment	string	<optional>	'left'	Align each line of multi-line text. Set to RetroFont.ALIGN_LEFT, RetroFont.ALIGN_RIGHT or RetroFont.ALIGN_CENTER.
allowLowerCase	boolean	<optional>	false	Lots of bitmap font sets only include upper-case characters, if yours needs to support lower case then set this to true.

Source:

src/gameobjects/RetroFont.js line 295

updateOffset( [xOffset] [, yOffset])

Updates the x and/or y offset that the font is rendered from. This updates all of the texture frames, so be careful how often it is called. Note that the values given for the x and y properties are either ADDED to or SUBTRACTED from (if negative) the existing offsetX/Y values of the characters. So if the current offsetY is 8 and you want it to start rendering from y16 you would call updateOffset(0, 8) to add 8 to the current y offset.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
xOffset	number	<optional>	0	If the font set doesn't start at the top left of the given image, specify the X coordinate offset here.
yOffset	number	<optional>	0	If the font set doesn't start at the top left of the given image, specify the Y coordinate offset here.
