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

PropertyDescription
ForcePower2TextureIf true, then force the texture sizes to be a power of 2.
NameThe name of the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object. (Inherited from Object)
RecommendedTextureSizeMultiplierThe texture size multiplier for the automatic texture size.

Methods

MethodDescription
AddObserverAdds a user-defined observer object to the interface, that will receive events from the interface. (Inherited from Object)
CalculateBasedOnDeviationCalculates 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()
CalculateBasedOnOnScreenSizeCalculates 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()
GetClassGet the name of the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator class. (Inherited from Object)
GetRecommendedHeightThe recommended height calculated in CalculateRecommendedTextureSize()
GetRecommendedWidthThe recommended width calculated in CalculateRecommendedTextureSize()
IsAReturns true if RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
IsNullReturns true if the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)
IsSameObjectAsReturns true if the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
NonNullReturns true if the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
PrintInfoPrints the content/info of the RecommendedTextureSizeCalculator object to the log. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveObserverRemoves a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)

MethodDescription
IsClassAReturns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
SafeCastSafeCast 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)
