Arguments
| Parameter Name | Type | Default Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| left | number | 0 | left side of display area to get |
| bottom | number | 0 | bottom side of display area to get |
| width | number | 960 | width side of display area to get |

Usage Notes
Note that this works even for a display that is not visible (because it is covered by another display, or has been turned off. This allows you to use a PixelDisplay as an area to create images at runtime, using any combination of drawing methods, and then capture the result for use as a Sprite, or to save to disk, etc.
Another way to create an Image at runtime is to use Image.create.
