Overview
CCSprite is a 2d image ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprite_(computer_graphics) )
CCSprite can be created with an image, or with a sub-rectangle of an image.
If the parent or any of its ancestors is a CCSpriteBatchNode then the following features/limitations are valid
- Features when the parent is a CCBatchNode:
- MUCH faster rendering, specially if the CCSpriteBatchNode has many children. All the children will be drawn in a single batch.
- Limitations
- Camera is not supported yet (eg: CCOrbitCamera action doesn't work)
- GridBase actions are not supported (eg: CCLens, CCRipple, CCTwirl)
- The Alias/Antialias property belongs to CCSpriteBatchNode, so you can't individually set the aliased property.
- The Blending function property belongs to CCSpriteBatchNode, so you can't individually set the blending function property.
- Parallax scroller is not supported, but can be simulated with a "proxy" sprite.
If the parent is an standard CCNode, then CCSprite behaves like any other CCNode: – It supports blending functions – It supports aliasing / antialiasing – But the rendering will be slower: 1 draw per children.
The default anchorPoint in CCSprite is (0.5, 0.5).

Tasks
Other Methods
-
dirty
whether or not the Sprite needs to be updated in the Atlas
property -
quad
the quad (tex coords, vertex coords and color) information
property -
atlasIndex
The index used on the TextureAtlas. Don’t modify this value unless you know what you are doing
property -
textureRect
returns the texture rect of the CCSprite in points
property -
textureRectRotated
returns whether or not the texture rectangle is rotated
property -
flipX
whether or not the sprite is flipped horizontally. It only flips the texture of the sprite, and not the texture of the sprite’s children. Also, flipping the texture doesn’t alter the anchorPoint. If you want to flip the anchorPoint too, and/or to flip the children too use:
property -
flipY
whether or not the sprite is flipped vertically. It only flips the texture of the sprite, and not the texture of the sprite’s children. Also, flipping the texture doesn’t alter the anchorPoint. If you want to flip the anchorPoint too, and/or to flip the children too use:
