Class: BitmapData

Phaser. BitmapData

Note: This object is still experimental and likely to change.

A BitmapData object can be thought of as a blank canvas onto which you can perform graphics operations as you would on a normal canvas, such as drawing lines, circles, arcs, fills and copying and setting blocks of pixel data. A single BitmapData can be used as the texture for multiple Sprites. So if you need to dynamically create a Sprite texture then they are a good choice. It supports the EaselJS Tiny API.

game Phaser.Game

A reference to the currently running game.
