Why isn't drawing a Sprite working?

Hi everyone. I’m having an issue, and it’s really frustrating because of how simple it is :stuck_out_tongue: . Drawing a Sprite isn’t working at all. I’m using LibGDX.

For example, with this code, when I draw the sprite, it is flashing really fast.

@Override
	public void show() {
		batch = new SpriteBatch();

		texture = new Texture("ui/mainmenu.png");
		mainMenu = new Sprite(texture);
		mainMenu.setSize(Gdx.graphics.getWidth(), Gdx.graphics.getHeight());
		
		batch.begin();
		mainMenu.draw(batch);
		batch.end();
	}

	@Override
	public void render(float delta) {
		Gdx.gl.glClearColor(0, 0, 0, 1);
	    Gdx.gl.glClear(GL20.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
	}

but with this code, my sprite doesn’t show up at all.

	@Override
	public void show() {
		batch = new SpriteBatch();

		texture = new Texture("ui/mainmenu.png");
		mainMenu = new Sprite(texture);
		mainMenu.setSize(Gdx.graphics.getWidth(), Gdx.graphics.getHeight());
	}

	@Override
	public void render(float delta) {
		Gdx.gl.glClearColor(0, 0, 0, 1);
	    Gdx.gl.glClear(GL20.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
	    
	    batch.begin();
	    mainMenu.draw(batch);
	    batch.end();
	}

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:
