Graphics / Re: How do you access an individual node within an STL list container?

The address of a deferenced iterator is just a pointer that is equivalent to the iterator, is it not?

It can be a simple pointer but it doesn't need to be. Some implementations use a class so they add extra functionality in debug mode.

Window / Re: getLocalBounds() with text objects?

The window comes with a default view.

General / Re: Why getOrigin() doesnt return current position of object

Moving an object does not modify its origin (which is in local coordinates).

Graphics / Re: How to draw a texture to a quad without weird deformation

I think ElasticSprite of SelbaWard does it in 2d. You should check their code.

I think that in order to have the correct deformation 3d is needed. You should look Sprite 3D from SelbaWard.

To know if the repeat mode was enabled or disabled (with sf::RenderTexture::setRepeated).

You can have more information about that in sf::Texture::setRepeated.

It does not need to be the same size, you can use a larger RenderTexture and use setTextureRect in the sprite to use only a portion of the texture.

I'm not sure if the create function is slow or not.

If I am not mistaken when creating a new RenderTexture a new OpenGL context is created. In some previous versions I also noticed low FPS when creating a new RenderTexture in each frame. I solved it by creating one and reusing it.

You should not create a RenderTexture every time you're going to draw something. There is also no need to store it in the heap.

General / Re: Help understanding why a constructor is written like this in SFML

That is called initializer list.

Feature requests / Re: double click ?

« on: October 17, 2017, 07:38:05 pm »

Maybe we should put a bool in MouseButtonEvent that says whether it is a double click or not. That way, those clicks do not send two events. I do not know if it is a good idea or if it is used in other libraries.

General / Re: Strange Sprite Offset

Maybe I was not clear with my message (English is not my main language) but you should replace getGlobalBounds with getLocalBounds.

General / Re: Strange Sprite Offset

« on: August 21, 2017, 02:31:01 am »

Now I see you're using getGlobalBounds instead of getLocalBounds. The origin is calculated in local coordinates and the scale of 5 causes it to be in the wrong position.

With (window->getSize().x / 2, window->getSize().y / 2) you are creating a position in window coordinates. You have to use mapPixelToCoords to convert it into world coordinates.
