Different size animations on same sprite sheet?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I wasn’t quite able to figure this out from just reading the docs so hoping someone can help me out. 

Suppose I have a few different sprite animations (ex: enemy walk, player walk, explosion) that are all different sizes and I would like to put them all into one sprite sheet.  

Can I do this and then just load the particular sequences I need for each animation? 

I’m confused about how Corona will know where each frame begins and ends since they will all be different sizes.  I know that I specify width and height and how many frames, but if they don’t line up evenly won’t that cause problems?

Much appreciate any help!

This works without an issue. But you of course have supply all the required info to Corona in the sheet options tables, i.e. you have to define the actual bounds of each frame on the sheet rather than just a single width/height value used for every frame.

It’s documented here https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/graphics/newImageSheet.html

Thank you!  Exactly what I was looking for!
