Is there a way to make a part of a sprite invisible? Say I have a box and whatever portion is outside the box is to be invisible.

SetSpriteScissor should do what you're looking for.

Is there a method for clipping based on another image so you can do shapes other than a square? I think there was a shader that could do it,wondering if they ever added a native command.

SetImageMask()
It is slow though

in studio (only) we have SetSpriteBlendModes() using SetSpriteTransparency(ID,3).

i'm not sure if it requires vulkan but i'd bet you can achieve some nifty stuff with it including this challenge.

since it's studio only, i haven't played with it much.

i wish someone would demo the possibilities *hint hint* but THIS is about all i've done with it

If the image won't change and you only need to do it once, SetImageMask is fine.

Or perhaps use a shader?
