Faster drawing for multiple shapes
« on: August 23, 2016, 03:17:04 am »
I have to draw alot of times the same set of shapes, and i would like to know if there is a way to group those together so that i would only need to perform grouping once and that i could draw that on a RenderWindow faster.

You can use the sf::VertexArray class.

Hope you achieve what you are trying to do.

With draw a lot I assume you mean at different locations, right? Just add all the shapes to the vertex array.
