Declaration

type TCastleImageTransform = class(TCastleTransform)

Description

Image (that you can place within TCastleViewport) with configurable size and repeat. Positioned in XY plane by defalut, so most suitable for 2D games.

Properties

Public property Pivot: TVector2 read FPivot write SetPivot;

How is the image placed within its own coordinate system. Default value (0.5, 0.5) means that the middle of the image is at (0,0,0). Value (0, 0) means that the left-bottom corner of the image is at (0,0,0).

Public property Size: TVector2 read FSize write SetSize;

Optionally resize the image. This is equivalent o using TCastleTransform.Scale to scale the image, except you can specify a value in terms of image size (in image pixels).

  • When both X and Y are zero, the image is not resized.

  • When only X is non-zero, the image is resized to given width, preserving the image aspect ratio (proportions).

  • When only Y is non-zero, the image is resized to given height, preserving the image aspect ratio (proportions).

  • When both X and Y are non-zero, the image is resized to given width and height, ignoring the image aspect ratio.

The size determines the size assuming that RepeatImage is (1,1). When RepeatImage is different – the size is actually multiplied by the RepeatImage. This makes it easy to create a continuous block of images by just increasing RepeatImage.

Public property RepeatImage: TVector2 read FRepeatImage write SetRepeatImage;

How many times to repeat the image, along X and Y. By default this is (1,1).

Public property Shift: TVector2 read FShift write SetShift;

How is the image shifted. This just shifts the texture coordinates, not moving the geometry. By default this is (0,0).

Public property Color: TCastleColor read FColor write SetColor;

Color to multiply by image. By default, opaque white.

Published property SmoothScaling: Boolean read FSmoothScaling write SetSmoothScaling default true;

How is the image scaled. Determines scaling done both by Size and TCastleTransform.Scale.

Published property AlphaChannel: TAutoAlphaChannel read FAlphaChannel write SetAlphaChannel default acAuto;

How to treat alpha channel of the image. By default, this is acAuto, which means that image contents together with current Color determine how the alpha of image is treated (opaque, alpha test, alpha blending). Set this property force specific treatment.

Published property Url: String read FUrl write SetUrl;

URL of the image to be loaded. When empty, no image is loaded and this is invisible.

Published property Mipmaps: Boolean read FMipmaps write SetMipmaps default false;

Mipmaps make the image look good when it scaled to be much smaller on the screen. Using mipmaps also forces the image to have power-of-2 size (it will be resized to power-of-2 if necessary).

Mipmaps typically make sense for 3D objects, when the camera may move arbitrarily far from the object. For 2D games, you usually don't want to use mipmaps, as you often want to avoid scaling the image to be power-of-2.

Published property PivotPersistent: TCastleVector2Persistent read FPivotPersistent ;

Pivot that can be visually edited in Castle Game Engine Editor, Lazarus and Delphi. Normal user code does not need to deal with this, instead read or write Pivot directly.
