/**
 * A RenderTexture is a special texture that allows any Pixi display object to be rendered to it.
 *
 * __Hint__: All DisplayObjects (i.e. Sprites) that render to a RenderTexture should be preloaded otherwise black rectangles will be drawn instead.
 *
 * A RenderTexture takes a snapshot of any Display Object given to its render method. The position and rotation of the given Display Objects is ignored. For example:
 *
 *    var renderTexture = new PIXI.RenderTexture(800, 600);
 *    var sprite = PIXI.Sprite.fromImage("spinObj_01.png");
 *    sprite.position.x = 800/2;
 *    sprite.position.y = 600/2;
 *    sprite.anchor.x = 0.5;
 *    sprite.anchor.y = 0.5;
 *    renderTexture.render(sprite);
 *
 * The Sprite in this case will be rendered to a position of 0,0. To render this sprite at its actual position a DisplayObjectContainer should be used:
 *
 *    var doc = new PIXI.DisplayObjectContainer();
 *    doc.addChild(sprite);
 *    renderTexture.render(doc);  // Renders to center of renderTexture
 *
 * @class RenderTexture
 * @extends Texture
 * @constructor
 * @param width {Number} The width of the render texture
 * @param height {Number} The height of the render texture
 * @param renderer {CanvasRenderer|WebGLRenderer} The renderer used for this RenderTexture
 * @param scaleMode {Number} Should be one of the PIXI.scaleMode consts
 * @param resolution {Number} The resolution of the texture being generated
 */
