[Pixi] Texture to Image object?

[d13]

Hello!

 

Can anyone suggest a simple way to convert a sprite texture to an ordinary JavaScript Image object?

Nope.

 

But you can draw a texture to a canvas, then convert that to a dataUrl, then use that in the src of an image object.

That should work fine, thank you Xerver.

How do we actually draw to canvas -- what is the best way?

This is how a sprite renders itself:
 

renderSession.context.drawImage(                                this.texture.baseTexture.source,                                this.texture.crop.x,                                this.texture.crop.y,                                this.texture.crop.width,                                this.texture.crop.height,                                dx,                                dy,                                this.texture.crop.width,                                this.texture.crop.height);
