Title: Combine shapes and/or vertex arrays
Post by: ekner on January 25, 2016, 09:18:49 pm

If I have several shapes and/or vertex arrays, can combine them and then transform them together in some way?

For example, if I have two rectangles (1) normally when I rotate them I will look like this (2), but I want to rotate them from the same point (3).

Can I render it to an image and transform it for example?

You just have to give them the same parent transform when you draw them.

sf::Transform transform;
transform.rotate(...);

window.draw(square1, transform);
window.draw(square2, transform);
