Display hitarea of sprite

[Sharpleaf]

I'd like to see a way to make a hitarea visible without having to make a new graphics object.

Something as simple as sprite.hitarea.display = true;

 

Is this a feasible request? Is it something that I could even anticipate?

 

Thanks!

My guess is this would be an overkill to include this as something built-in in PIXI, especially if it's made to work as a simple property.

 

You can create a simple debug function that goes through the Stage's child graph, checks for a hitarea and creates a corresponding graphics object (probably setting the same x/y and adding it to the parent). Shouldn't be more than a few lines of code.

You probably should just extend sprite and make your own. As digibo said its not something that should be included in a rendering engine built for speed, although I wonder how much of a performance impact it would actually have...

When I test my hitAreas(s) I simply draw a graphics primitive in place. Seems to work okay for my purposes.
