Hello,
I came across this weird thing (bug?), I’m on Corona build 2014.2189.
local rect = display.newRect(0, 0, 200, 200) rect.x = display.contentCenterX rect.y = display.contentCenterY --rect:setFillColor(1, 1, 1) -- this makes alpha default to 1 rect:setFillColor(1, 1, 1, nil) -- this makes alpha default to 0???That is odd. One way to look at this is you passed a 4th parameter which means you intended to set the alpha. And by default nothing is 1 so something should be something different. Twisted logic I know. If this is going into some C++ code, C treats null and 0 the same, unlike Lua where they have different meaning, which could be the real reason you’re seeing this behavior.
I’m not sure this is a bug worth pursing since there is a simple work around, don’t pass in nil.
