Retrieve Image from Sprite

[fjsantos]

Hi all.

I wonder how to retrieve an Image from sprite (if there are any possibilities to do it).

Thanks in advance.

Best regards, fjsantos.

It is not possible.
You can store the image in an ImageList before assigning it to the sprite.

Ok, thanks, that it the method i suppose may use.

Btw, its possible to 'update' image on Sprite or I need to create new one?

Best Regards, fjsantos.

You will need to create a new one.
It is possible however to use the same object and just reinitialize it with New2 or New3.

Yes, but I have to use dispose method first for memory purposse?

Best Regards, fjsantos.

You can use dispose and then AddObject (if you want to use the same object's name).
If you will not call dispose the sprite will be eventually implicitly disposed.

This work then like 'garbage recollector' of java i suppose.

Yesterday, doing some test i get 'out of memory' randomly when not use dispose method first. (Well i was creating a lot of sprites hehe).
