Title: Sprite center
Post by: Kingdom of Fish on January 31, 2008, 02:16:33 am

This is probably a mostly personal preference but I think it would be much more logical to set default sprite center to the middle of the sprite and then set the center as +/-[0, 1] where for example -1, 1 is the top left corner.

Is there a good reason not to do so or just another set of preferences?

The center can't be in the middle by default, as it's handled in Drawable but only Sprite knows its size. Think about String, for example.

Ah, that explains it.
