Pixi Double Drawing in 4.x Android Stock Browsers.

[LuckieLordie]

Hi, 

I just wanted to inquire about this bug in the Pixi forums. 

http://www.html5gamedevs.com/topic/114-canvasclearrect-bug-in-android-stock-browser/

 

I think I've come across it on a device and wondered if the bug was known as present in the current build of Phaser?

 

Thanks!

 

Here is an image of the problem from a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 running Android version 4.1.1

Edit: I also get the same problem on a Galaxy Tab 2 running the same version of Android.

Yes this looks like the issue. Try putting in a background image behind everything and see if that clears it up (as if it is the Android bug it's the clearRect that is failing).

Thanks for letting me know! Do you plan to implement a fix within phaser or will it be up to us to implement a fix until Pixi is fixed?

There's no fix, it's an Android issue I'm afraid. The only thing we could do on the framework level is to simply not call clearRect, but I'm not convinced that's a good idea long term.
