setTextureRect - other direction

[5gum]

Hey,
I'm a beginner in SFML so please don't be too strict.

I painted a simple rect (Size:20*60px) and included it in my program.
Now I want that the y-position of the rect gets smaller every frame (Like a loading bar).

I tried it with

rect_timer = 0;

while(window.isOpen())
{
rect_timer += 0.1;
rect.setTextureRect(sf::IntRect(0,rect_timer,20,60-rect_timer));
}
 

But the result was, that my rect moves in the wrong direction, so the lowest part dissapeared at first but I want that the toppest part dissapeares at first.

How can I do that?

Thanks, 5gum

try moving the top of the texture rect:

int amount = 60 - rect_timer;
rect.setTextureRect(sf::IntRect(0, 60 - amount, 20, amount));
 

it's also good practice to get rid of all those magic numbers, perhaps with some const values

If I run that there's the same result...

I solved it

My solution was, that I moved the Origin of the rect in the middle then I roate it 180° and now it works ^^

But thanks
