7 years ago Hi Jim - sorry for the delay getting back - just noticed this. Assuming you have a CreateJS SpriteSheet and were passing that in as a the first parameter to the ZIM Sprite(). You should be able to fix this as follows:
new zim.Sprite({spriteSheet:spriteSheet});
As of 4.7.0 there was a change to the Sprite to make the CreateJS SpriteSheet internally. So the Sprite() parameters have changed. The Documentation has an "updates" link http://zimjs.com/code/updates.html which has the following under 4.7.0:
Sprite has json parameter which replaces spriteSheet parameter BREAK The SpriteSheet is now made internally from the json can still pass in rows and cols as well instead of json Note that the BREAK - means old code might break. Then in 5.2.0 we added the spriteSheet parameter back in (in a different place at the very end) as CreateJS came out with dynamic SpriteSheet building with SpriteSheetBuilder!
So, sorry for the run around - I hope that is the issue - just check the recent Sprite() parameters in the docs at http://zimjs.com/code/docs.html?id=sprite Note that you may not need to make the CreateJS SpriteSheet as you can now just pass in the JSON information for that SpriteSheet and the ZIM Sprite will make the SpriteSheet for you ;-). See the http://zimjs.com/code/spritesheet example. I will update the ZIM Bits that have older SpriteSheet examples...

Dear Dan,
Thank you for making this incredible library and its excellent documentation!
I think I'm getting something wrong here... zim_4.1.1.js seems to run the spritesheet animation without any problems, but zim_5.2.2 seems to have problem finding the canvas, it throws up a getContext error. I am sure this is my lack of experience with js.
Thank you for this wonderful resource!
Jim
