Author Topic: Drawing a Sprite or other Image onto an Image (Read 2744 times)

Is it possibly, basically!

I'm doing a simple gui, and an image button will have three parts: a border, a background and an image.

Is it possible to "pre render" one on top of the other, to stop me having to draw all three parts every time, or is there simply no point?

Thanks!

Possible with SFML2, harder with SFML 1.x

In SFML 2, the sf::RenderImage class can be used as rendering target, similar to sf::RenderWindow.

You also have sf::Image::Copy.

Awesome, thanks guys.

How stable is SFML2 seems to the logical next question: when will it be released?

Nobody knows

But IMHO it is pretty stable, as I always use the latest svn release, and had no problem so far with it
