PixelDisplay.getImage returns a portion of the pixel display as an Image.

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
height number 640 height 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.
