Accessing particular image from a texture atlas

[MadOwl]

Hello!

I finally decided to try to use TexturePacker. This tool looks promising.

Now I am just rewriting tons of my code. Here's the question, I hope some of you, friends, might be able to help me:

My old code:

        var background = game.cache.getImage(backgroundName);
        something.drawImage(background, 0, 0, background.width, background.height, 0, 0, gameWidth, gameHeight);

Can I do the same thing, but with background image being placed into texture atlas which will also include multiple other images?

How can I do ' var background = game.cache.getImage(backgroundName);', but with texture atlas use? It seems methods like getFrameData return only some info strings.

Not exactly sure what you mean, but why not just use a sprite to show the background?

// use a sprite
var background = game.add.sprite(0, 0, 'yourassetkey', 'theframename');

// and if you want, stretch it to entire game area
background.width = game.width;
background.height = game.height;

Or if the graphics should be a repeating pattern, like bricks or grass or something like that, you can use the Phaser.TileSprite class.

// use a tile sprite
var background = game.add.tileSprite(0, 0, game.width, game.height, 'yourassetkey', 'brickspattern');

I think you are looking for the property Sprite.FrameName = "backgroundname"
