# class RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator

Estimates a coarse recommended UV size (width and height) for a geometry based on only its surface area and either the distance it is allowed to deviate or its intended on screen size. The UVs are assumed to be unique i.e. not tiled/repeated. RecommendedWidth and RecommendedHeight will only differ from each other if ForcePower2Texture is enabled.

# Properties

Property Description
ForcePower2Texture If true, then force the texture sizes to be a power of 2.
Name The name of the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object. (Inherited from Object)
RecommendedTextureSizeMultiplier The texture size multiplier for the automatic texture size.

# Methods

Method Description
AddObserver Adds a user-defined observer object to the interface, that will receive events from the interface. (Inherited from Object)
CalculateBasedOnDeviation Calculates the recommended UV size based on the surface area of the geometry and the allowed deviation. The recommended width and height can be fetched with the GetRecommendedWidth() and GetRecommendedHeight()
CalculateBasedOnOnScreenSize Calculates the recommended UV size based on the surface area of the geometry and the intended on screen size (in pixels) The recommended width and height can be fetched with the GetRecommendedWidth() and GetRecommendedHeight()
GetClass Get the name of the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator class. (Inherited from Object)
GetRecommendedHeight The recommended height calculated in CalculateRecommendedTextureSize()
GetRecommendedWidth The recommended width calculated in CalculateRecommendedTextureSize()
IsA Returns true if RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
IsNull Returns true if the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)
IsSameObjectAs Returns true if the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
NonNull Returns true if the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
PrintInfo Prints the content/info of the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object to the log. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveObserver Removes a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)

# Static methods

Method Description
IsClassA Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
SafeCast SafeCast makes sure the input object is of a class that can be cast into spRecommendedTextureSizeCalculator, and if this is the case, returns the object cast into spRecommendedTextureSizeCalculator. (Inherited from Object)
