Texture

CanvasTexture

Creates a texture from a canvas element.

This is almost the same as the base Texture class, except that it sets needsUpdate to true immediately.

Constructor

CanvasTexture(canvas : HTMLElement, mapping : Constant, wrapS : Constant, wrapT : Constant, magFilter : Constant, minFilter : Constant, format : Constant, type : Constant, anisotropy : Integer)

canvas — The HTML canvas element from which to load the texture.
mapping — How the image is applied to the object. An object type of v3d.UVMapping. See mapping constants for other choices.
wrapS — The default is v3d.ClampToEdgeWrapping. See wrap mode constants for other choices.
wrapT — The default is v3d.ClampToEdgeWrapping. See wrap mode constants for other choices.
magFilter — How the texture is sampled when a texel covers more than one pixel. The default is v3d.LinearFilter. See magnification filter constants for other choices.
minFilter — How the texture is sampled when a texel covers less than one pixel. The default is v3d.LinearMipmapLinearFilter. See minification filter constants for other choices.
format — The format used in the texture. See format constants for other choices.
type — Default is v3d.UnsignedByteType. See type constants for other choices.
anisotropy — The number of samples taken along the axis through the pixel that has the highest density of texels. By default, this value is 1. A higher value gives a less blurry result than a basic mipmap, at the cost of more texture samples being used. Use renderer.getMaxAnisotropy() to find the maximum valid anisotropy value for the GPU; this value is usually a power of 2.

Properties

See the base Texture class for common properties.

.isCanvasTexture : Boolean

Read-only flag to check if a given object is of type CanvasTexture.

.needsUpdate : Boolean

True by default. This is required so that the canvas data is loaded.

Methods

See the base Texture class for common methods.
