Property Descriptions

int array_layers = 1 🔗

  • void set_array_layers(value: int)

  • int get_array_layers()

The number of layers in the texture. Only relevant for 2D texture arrays.


int depth = 1 🔗

  • void set_depth(value: int)

  • int get_depth()

The texture's depth (in pixels). This is always 1 for 2D textures.


DataFormat format = 8 🔗

The texture's pixel data format.


int height = 1 🔗

  • void set_height(value: int)

  • int get_height()

The texture's height (in pixels).


bool is_discardable = false 🔗

  • void set_is_discardable(value: bool)

  • bool get_is_discardable()

If a texture is discardable, its contents do not need to be preserved between frames. This flag is only relevant when the texture is used as target in a draw list.

This information is used by RenderingDevice to figure out if a texture's contents can be discarded, eliminating unnecessary writes to memory and boosting performance.


bool is_resolve_buffer = false 🔗

  • void set_is_resolve_buffer(value: bool)

  • bool get_is_resolve_buffer()

The texture will be used as the destination of a resolve operation.


int mipmaps = 1 🔗

  • void set_mipmaps(value: int)

  • int get_mipmaps()

The number of mipmaps available in the texture.


TextureSamples samples = 0 🔗

The number of samples used when sampling the texture.


TextureType texture_type = 1 🔗

The texture type.


BitField[TextureUsageBits] usage_bits = 0 🔗

The texture's usage bits, which determine what can be done using the texture.


int width = 1 🔗

  • void set_width(value: int)

  • int get_width()

The texture's width (in pixels).


Method Descriptions

void add_shareable_format(format: DataFormat) 🔗

Adds format as a valid format for the corresponding RDTextureView's RDTextureView.format_override property. If any format is added as shareable, then the main format must also be added.


void remove_shareable_format(format: DataFormat) 🔗

Removes format from the list of valid formats that the corresponding RDTextureView's RDTextureView.format_override property can be set to.
