Is there a way to draw primitives to a sprite?

[David]

Is there a way to have a sprite that is simply a circle or rectangle?

 

As of now, I'm trying to basically find a way to go from graphics object -> texture -> sprite.

 

Anyone else run into this?

 

I'm basically trying to find a way to draw primitives yet still leverage things like the collision detection.

If all else fails, I could just move a blank sprite around and move the primitive around with it.

This is what the BitmapData class is for - for creating 'primitive' style textures that any Sprite can use. It's still an experimental class, but at the very least you can access the canvas context and draw whatever you like to it, then apply it to 1+ sprites as a texture.

Great. Thanks!  I hadn't updated to 1.1.3 yet.  I just saw that in the readme.

 

Thanks for the help!
