Title: Multiple layer support for sprite sheets
Post by: Bryston on March 17, 2013, 03:19:20 pm

Instead of using the tools in

sf::RenderTexture

to build up a composited image for animations it would be cool if the library had XCF support so that layers could be turned on/off with switches. The LPC sprite sheets got me thinking about this.

You probably shouldn't be using a RenderTexture for that--just draw the layers directly to the RenderWindow. You can write a class for layered spritesheets (I have written such a class); that's really too high-level a feature for SFML.
