Access to renderer.backgroundColor in TypeScript

[yahiko]

I am wondering why the renderer.backgroundColor property is not public in TypeScript.

In order to get directly access to this useful property, I needed to create a helper class to expose this attribute:

class GameRenderer extends PIXI.WebGLRenderer {
    public backgroundColor: number;
}

If anyone has an explanation, I would be interested to read it.

Thanks!

Its a bug. please report to https://github.com/pixijs/pixi-typescript

Also, it might be fixed already, check the typings there - they are newer than in DefinitelyTyped.

Your declaration file seems more accurate than the one I can get from: npm install --save-dev @types/pixi.js.

It would be great if the npm registry could be up to date

Thanks anyway for your helpful answer.

We have problems with it, each time it involves some magic with new tests for ts definition to satisfy definitelytyped daemon.

I see. I've changed my dependecies to your repo anyway
