Hello, Cocos Developers.
We’re using Graphics component in our game.
It has clear() method but doesn’t have clearRect(x, y, width, height) method that is needed.
Could you make a patch or add that method in next version?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Any good idea please?
You can try to fill rect with a solid color or transparent color, might be helpful
Thanks for the idea.
I tried it before.
solid color (like black) - if the background layer is an image, it will show a black rect.
transparent color - It doesn’t change looking of the graphics.
Should we use mask?
I see, if it need to be blended with background, then fillRect is not sufficient. You can indeed use Mask as a parent Node of graphics, and draw stencils to cutout content inside, it’s a quite convenient approach.
It works. Thank you very much!
I hope cocos team add clearRect() to Graphics in the next version.
Is there a way to add opacity to Graphics?
It should be ok to just modify its color
No, I’ve to change opacity. not color.
