Bug: [v8] text.style.fill === null when TextStyle is reused instead of TextStyleOptions

[joergplewe]

Current Behavior

In case a TextStyle object - in favor of a TextStyleOptions type - is used to create multiple Text objects, these may loose their style.fill property, which e.g. makes tinting impossible.

Expected Behavior

Text should well-behave concerning it's way of construction.

Steps to Reproduce

See that tinting gets lost after 2 seconds and recreation of scenegraph content.

Environment

• pixi.js version: 8.0.2
• Browser & Version: any
• OS & Version: any
• Running Example: https://www.pixiplayground.com/#/edit/-V-yqUNla6o8sOKEEKRCk

Possible Solution

I suspect this has to do with caching and reference counting of ressources.

Thanks for reporting @joergplewe. This indeed looks like a bug.

Hey chaps, looking at the code - currently we destroy a texture style when we destroy a text.
will make it optional (like textures and their sources!)
