I would like to be able to clip sprites to a rectangular region. An arbitrary (e.g. alphamask) clip region would work, too.

When you rotate or scale a sprite, it will occupy more space than it originally did. I want to restrict rendering to a certain region so the sprite doesn't go outside a certain area.

Example:


Scripting is trivial:
_X,...,UL1X,UL1Y,LR1X,LR1Y,UL2X,UL2Y,LR2X,LR2Y
Transition from ((UL1X, UL1Y), (LR1X, LR1Y)) to ((UL2X, UL2Y), (LR2X, LR2Y)).

Yes, I do have a need for this. ;P Especially the rectangle clipping. I'm fine with not being able to use an alphamask.

"scaling" would be to make bigger, (or smaller) so... this would be counter-productive, unless you could turn it on/off.

See the example image.

Yes, please.

I can think of dozens of ways that this can be useful off the top of my head.

The clipping region would be very useful.I do have a demand for that in order to create effects like spinner-meter growing or sth other.

I'm no mapper but i have to say that this idea (could) make the SB's a lot better then the average from now.

For example Counting you up, that one is of great quality and i would definitely like to see more of those.
