Title: Is there a way to get the current view's camera position? (The float rect data)
Post by: Lamonte on September 04, 2013, 05:53:32 pm

Wonder if there's a way to get the current float rect data for later calculations (for move checks)

            //load current camera view
            View view = new View(new FloatRect(0, 200, width, height));

Or should I create a class that manages this data?

Do you mean the bounds for your view? If so it is not possible, but it has been suggested here. (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=12842)
If you mean the view's actual position use the center of the view.

yeah, I guess I'll write my own class for the sole purpose of what I'm trying to accomplish as the camera won't rotate.  Thanks for the information.
