Cel

A cel is an image in a specific xy-coordinate, and a specific layer/frame combination.

Cel.sprite

local sprite = cel.sprite

Cels belong to one sprite. This property returns that sprite.

Cel.layer

local layer = cel.layer

Returns the layer where this cel is located.

Cel.frame

local frame = cel.frame
cel.frame = newFrame

Returns the frame object which this cel belongs. If you set this property, the cel will be moved to the given frame (if another cel already exists in that frame, it will be removed).

Cel.frameNumber

local frameNumber = cel.frameNumber
cel.frameNumber = newFrameNumber

Returns the frame number which this cel belongs, the frame number 1 is the first frame (not 0). If you set this property the cel will be moved to the given frameNumber, check the notes of Cel.frame.

Cel.image

local image = cel.image
cel.image = newImage

Gets or sets the image with the pixels of this cel. This is the preferred way to replace the cel image, because it generates only one undoable action.

local bounds = cel.bounds

Returns the rectangle with the cel bounds (position and size).

Cel.position

local position = cel.position
cel.position = newPosition

Gets or sets the cel position.

Cel.opacity

local opacity = cel.opacity
cel.opacity = newOpacity

Gets or sets the cel opacity. A value from 0 to 255 (which means 0=0% completely transparent, or 255=100% completely opaque).

Cel.color

local color = cel.color
cel.color = newColor

Gets or sets the user-defined color of this cel in the timeline.
