Quad

Description:

  A quadrilateral (a polygon with four sides and four corners) with texture coordinate information.

type

Type: Function.

Description:

  Gets the type of the object as a string.

Signature:

type: function(self: Quad): string

Returns:

Return Type	Description
string	The type as a string.

Of

Type: Function.

Description:

  Checks whether an object is of a certain type. If the object has the type with the specified name in its hierarchy, this function will return true.

Signature:

typeOf: function(self: Quad, type_name: string): boolean

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
type_name	string	The name of the type to check for.

Returns:

Return Type	Description
boolean	True if the object is of the specified type, false otherwise.

release

Type: Function.

Description:

  Destroys the object's Lua reference. The object will be completely deleted if it's not referenced by any other LÖVE object or thread. This method can be used to immediately clean up resources without waiting for Lua's garbage collector.

Signature:

release: function(self: Quad): boolean

Returns:

Return Type	Description
boolean	True if the object was released by this call, false if it had been previously released.

setViewport

Type: Function.

Description:

  Sets the texture coordinates according to a viewport.

Signature:

setViewport: function(self: Quad, x: number, y: number, width: number, height: number, texture_width?: number, texture_height?: number)

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
x	number	The top-left corner along the x-axis.
y	number	The top-left corner along the y-axis.
width	number	The width of the viewport.
height	number	The height of the viewport.
texture_width	number	Optional new reference width, the width of the Texture. Must be greater than 0 if set. (Default: nil.)
texture_height	number	Optional new reference height, the height of the Texture. Must be greater than 0 if set. (Default: nil.)

getViewport

Type: Function.

Description:

  Gets the current viewport of this Quad.

Signature:

getViewport: function(self: Quad): number, number, number, number

Returns:

Return Type	Description
number	The top-left corner along the x-axis.
number	The top-left corner along the y-axis.
number	The width of the viewport.
number	The height of the viewport.

getTextureDimensions

Type: Function.

Description:

  Gets reference texture dimensions initially specified in love.graphics.newQuad.

Signature:

getTextureDimensions: function(self: Quad): number, number
	setLayer: function(self: Quad, layer: integer)
	getLayer: function(self: Quad): integer

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
layer	integer	The layer parameter.

Returns:
