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.
