Canvas Inheriting Transformations? NO ES BUENO

[NateAGeek]

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this is a bug. Or if anyone has a work around. But it seems that Canvas inherits transformations. What I mean is if the graphics within the are transformed; so is the canvas. So, creating a camera is a pain.

Here is an example draw function:

Code: Select all

  love.graphics.setCanvas(Canvas)
    Canvas:clear()
    love.graphics.setColor(255, 0, 0)
    --This is a background rect so you can see were the canvas is being drawn
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 1000, 1000)
    --Reset color for drawing the "Player" square
    love.graphics.setColor(255, 255, 255, 255)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", Player["x"], Player["y"], 100, 100)
    --A transformation moving the environment around
    Camera.moveCenter(-Player["x"], -Player["y"])
  love.graphics.setCanvas()
  --Draw the canvas at 0,0
love.graphics.draw(Canvas, 0, 0)

I have also attached an example .love file. The code should be pretty forward.

You can push() and pop(), or even reset the transformations.
