setAnchorPoint() on a parent Sprite - Unexpected behavior?
Mells
Guru
Hi,
here is a case : when I'm setting the anchor point on a parent sprite, the anchor point is modified on all its children instead of the parent sprite only.
I was expecting a different behavior.
Here is an image explaining the situation.
(2) is what is happening. (3) is what I was expecting would happen.
Am I the only expecting (3) instead of (2)?

As explained on that other post, why not implemented and how to manage what you want, setting anchorpoints to sprite, actually changes its 0;0 coordinate to the provided anchor point, thus also all children change position.
you could add another sprite layer and position it with -width/2 -height/2 position within container, and add heart to it, ti would behave how you would expect it
I have been using giderosCodingEasy for long and almost forgot that the implementation is not native, which is also why i didn't make the connection with the other discussion.
So giderosCodingEasy is making a choice on how to handle because there is not a single way to interpret how anchor points should be applied.
I had already moved to the same solution as yours but wanted to be sure about that "issue". Sorry for not seeing the obvious, i really forgot that giderosCodingEasy is acting in the background
I feel I ask rather strange questions these days. I must be disconnected.
