# SWF::Sprite(3pm)

Sprite (MovieClip) Class

## NAME

SWF::Sprite - Sprite (MovieClip) Class

## SYNOPSIS

```
        use SWF::Sprite;
        my $sprite = new SWF::Sprite();
```

## DESCRIPTION

SWF::Sprite allows you to add animated objects to your Fash movies.  You may use SWF::MovieClip instead of SWF::Sprite (i.e. SWF::Sprite inherits all it's methods from SWF::MovieClip). In other words: SWF::Sprite is deprecated! Do NOT use anymore.

## METHODS

- new *SWF::Sprite()*;

  Returns an SWF::Sprite object.

- $displayItem = $sprite-\>add($s);

  Add `$s` to the `$sprite` object and returns an SWF::DisplayItem object, i.e. `$displayItem` . `$s` may be an SWF::Shape, SWF::Text, SWF::Button, or another sprite object.

- $sprite-\>remove($displayItem);

  Removes `$displayItem` from the display list.

- $sprite-\>*nextFrame()*;

  Move to the next frame of the animation.

- $sprite-\>setFrames($i);

  Sets total number of `$sprite` frames to `$i`

- $sprite-\>labelFrame($name);

  Sets frame name to `$name`
