Syntax

public class TextureGeneratorControl : TextureControl, IAdditionalProperties, IAdditionalLocalization

Remarks

It is a more complex and specialized version of TextureControl, where on top of the base functionality of TextureControl it also has a fuull blown texture generator.

When using it right away the texture generator will default to a simple 4 channel merger where for each channel you can select a texture, select which channel of the texture use, and use that as the channel for the final generated texture.

While this is already a great use of the control and a fairly common one (like merging 4 monochrome texture masks) it is just one possible use, since it can load custom compute shaders and relative control input options to go along, enabling you to create your own generator that takes your own defined parameters to get a specific output.

Examples

Example usage:

// Adds a new texture generator control with a texture and color field, using the default merger for the generator
this.AddTextureGeneratorControl("_TextureProperty", "_ColorProperty"); 

// Adds a new texture generator control with a texture and color field, using a custom generator
this.AddTextureGeneratorControl(myCompute, computeInputJson, "_TextureProperty", "_ColorProperty");
