Flipped Y in Cocos2d-x 2

cocos2d-x C++
#1

Hi all,

I just switched to cocos2d-x 2 for a new project so i took the one from git.

I was wondering, when I place a sprite at the screen like 0,0 it is at the bottom corner ?
Origin was top left right?
But when i log the ccTouch it is correct, 0,0 is at top left, but my sprite is at bottom left.
Is this a bug?

friendly regards,

Seppe

If you want placed your sprite in position(0, 0) you can use two method:

yourSprite->setAnchorPoint(0, 0);
yourSprite->setPosition(ccp(0, 0);

or

CCSize spriteSize = yourSprite->getContentSize();
yourSprite->setPosition(spriteSize.width/2, spriteSize.height/2);

Thats not what I mean :stuck_out_tongue:

I mean the origin of the view is top left of the screen.
so X = 0 and Y = 0 then it is top left of the screen.
And when I log my touches they print the correct position.
Top is 0 and bottom is 480.
But my sprite draw inversed. So when i change position of sprite to 0,480 it is drawed at the top of the screen instead of the bottom. =/

cheers

Oh, sorry :slight_smile:
Use that:

CCPoint touchPoint = CCDirector::sharedDirector()->convertToGL(pTouch->locationInView());

I think that snippet may help you:

void YourClass::ccTouchMoved(CCTouch *pTouch, CCEvent *pEvent) {
  mSprite->setPosition(CCDirector::sharedDirector()->convertToGL(pTouch->locationInView()) );
}

In cocos origin using like openGL.

TY ! Damn how could i be so stupid .
I just did pTouch->getLocationInView()
instead of CCDirector::sharedDirector()->convertToGL(pTouch->getLocationInView());

tyvm!
