[Resolved] clear_rect?

[Dirtie]

Is there a "clear_rect" type command that can be used to clear an area of a bitmap (ie. the opposite of fill_rect)? I realize I could probably do it by just changing the alpha, but that seems a little unclean to me.

Cheers.

Use:

bitmap.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))

Are you sure that's the cleanest way of doing it ?

Like I said, I was already aware of this method, my perfectionism got the best of me :P

You can always just create one. I know selwyn did in the MACL.

class Bitmap
  def clear_rect(rect)
    self.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))
  end
end

Yeah, but it's exactly the same thing - I was just wondering if there was another way, that's all. Consider my query fulfilled
