Description

Represents a Sprite object for use in 2D gameplay.

Sprites are 2D graphic objects used for characters, props, projectiles and other elments of 2D gameplay. The graphics are obtained from bitmap images - Texture2D. The Sprite class primarily identifies the section of the image that should be used for a specific sprite. This information can then be used by a SpriteRenderer component on a GameObject to actually display the graphic.

See Also: SpriteRenderer class.

borderReturns the border sizes of the sprite.
boundsBounds of the Sprite, specified by its center and extents in world space units.
packedReturns true if this Sprite is packed in an atlas.
packingModeIf Sprite is packed (see Sprite.packed), returns its SpritePackingMode.
packingRotationIf Sprite is packed (see Sprite.packed), returns its SpritePackingRotation.
pivotLocation of the Sprite's center point in the Rect on the original Texture, specified in pixels.
pixelsPerUnitThe number of pixels in the sprite that correspond to one unit in world space. (Read Only)
rectLocation of the Sprite on the original Texture, specified in pixels.

textureRectGet the rectangle this sprite uses on its texture. Raises an exception if this sprite is tightly packed in an atlas.
