Also I thought you had to create the texture with:
Code:
crMapBackground = myframe:CreateTexture("Texture","BACKGROUND")
Though if it's been working for you, I guess I'm wrong. Could someone clarify this? |
Nah, you've confused it with creating a new Frame, where you have to specify the
type of Frame (Frame, Button, StatusBar, etc.). Since there are only, really, two types of layered regions (Textures, FontStrings) and both have their own, independent way of being created, there's no need to specify.
All you're doing when you type "Texture", in the first field of CreateTexture, is naming that Texture...Texture. The XML equivalent would be:
[code]
<Texture name="Texture">
...
</Texture>
