Clear whole canvas

[umair-khan]

Hi! I want to clear the whole canvas.

I know there is one way by changing state, but I want to be in same state and clear whole canvas when a sprite is clicked.

Something like:

 

sprite.events.onInputDown(this.clearCanvas, this);

It depends what you mean.

 

Do you mean, "I want to remove every display object from the display graph?" That's "game.world.removeAll();". It'll remove every sprite from the world and you'll have to add them back in manually.

 

Do you mean, "I want to show the player a black screen but *not* kill every sprite in my game?" That's :

game.add.bitmapData(this.game.width, this.game.height, 'curtain', true).fill(0, 0, 0);game.stage.addChild(game.add.image(0, 0, 'curtain'));

You'll want to track the result of that "addChild" call to remove it later.
