Flipping a Texture in Libgdx Java

Question

I am trying to figure out how to flip a Texture in libgdx using Java. I can't find any methods of doing this and I can't just do some code to flip the Texture itself. Is there any way that I can flip the texture some way in libgdx?

Answer 1

You can make a Sprite object and when you initialize it, you can pass in the Texture object. Then you can call methods such as rotate, flip, etc. Here is a code example

    Texture tex = new Texture("path");
    Sprite sprite = new Sprite(tex);
    sprite.flip(true, false);

true as the first parameter for flipping over x-axis and false for y-axis, which is what you are looking for in your specific example.
