Methods:

<bool>setPatternedImageFile <filename>filePath

Sets the filename and path to the Patterned Image File.

Returns True on success, False on failure (for example, if file was not found or was not a valid patterned file).

   

<bool>setImageFile <index>tile index <filename>filePath

Sets the bitmap image to the indexed tile from the Patterned Image File specified by the second argument.

Returns True on success, False on failure.

   

<integer>getTileUOffset <index>tileIndex

Returns the U offset of the indexed tile.

   

<void>setTileUOffset <index>tileIndex <integer>uIndex

Sets the U offset of the indexed tile to the offset specified by the second argument.

   

<integer>getTileVOffset <index>tileIndex

Returns the V offset of the indexed tile.

   

<void>setTileVOffset <index>tileIndex <integer>vIndex

Sets the V offset of the indexed tile to the offset specified by the second argument.

   

<texturemap>getTileTexmap <index>tileIndex

Returns a bitmapTexture map with the indexed tile.

   

<void>setTileTexmap <index>tileIndex <texturemap>texmap

Sets the indexed tile to the bitmapTexture map supplied as second argument.

   

<integer>tileCount()

Returns the number of tiles.

   

<void>addTile()

Adds a tile.

Equivalent to pressing the "Add Tile" icon next to the "Number Of Textures" field in the UI.
