Class Texture<R>

A texture stores the information that represents an image or part of an image.

It cannot be added to the display list directly; instead use it as the texture for a Sprite. If no frame is provided for a texture, then the whole image is used.

You can directly create a texture from an image and then reuse it multiple times like this :

import { Sprite, Texture } from 'pixi.js';

const texture = Texture.from('assets/image.png');
const sprite1 = new Sprite(texture);
const sprite2 = new Sprite(texture);

If you didnt pass the texture frame to constructor, it enables noFrame mode: it subscribes on baseTexture events, it automatically resizes at the same time as baseTexture.

Textures made from SVGs, loaded or not, cannot be used before the file finishes processing. You can check for this by checking the sprite's _textureID property.

import { Sprite, Texture } from 'pixi.js';

const texture = Texture.from('assets/image.svg');
const sprite1 = new Sprite(texture);
// sprite1._textureID should not be undefined if the texture has finished processing the SVG file

You can use a ticker or rAF to ensure your sprites load the finished textures after processing. See issue [#3085]https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs/issues/3085.

Constructors

constructor

  • new Texture<R>(baseTexture, frame?, orig?, trim?, rotate?, anchor?, borders?): Texture<R>

  • Type Parameters

    Parameters

    • baseTexture: BaseTexture<R, IAutoDetectOptions>

      The base texture source to create the texture from

    • Optional frame: Rectangle

      The rectangle frame of the texture to show

    • Optional orig: Rectangle

      The area of original texture

    • Optional trim: Rectangle

      Trimmed rectangle of original texture

    • Optional rotate: number

      indicates how the texture was rotated by texture packer. See PIXI.groupD8

    • Optional anchor: IPointData

      Default anchor point used for sprite placement / rotation

    • Optional borders: ITextureBorders

      Default borders used for 9-slice scaling. See PIXI.NineSlicePlane

    Returns Texture<R>

Properties

_frame

_frame: Rectangle

This is the area of the BaseTexture image to actually copy to the Canvas / WebGL when rendering, irrespective of the actual frame size or placement (which can be influenced by trimmed texture atlases)

baseTexture

baseTexture: BaseTexture<R, IAutoDetectOptions>

The base texture that this texture uses.

defaultAnchor

defaultAnchor: Point

Anchor point that is used as default if sprite is created with this texture. Changing the defaultAnchor at a later point of time will not update Sprite's anchor point.

Default

{0,0}

Optional defaultBorders

defaultBorders?: ITextureBorders

Default width of the non-scalable border that is used if 9-slice plane is created with this texture.

Since

7.2.0

See

PIXI.NineSlicePlane

Readonly destroyed

destroyed: boolean

Has the texture been destroyed?

noFrame

noFrame: boolean

Does this Texture have any frame data assigned to it?

This mode is enabled automatically if no frame was passed inside constructor.

In this mode texture is subscribed to baseTexture events, and fires update on any change.

Beware, after loading or resize of baseTexture event can fired two times! If you want more control, subscribe on baseTexture itself.

Any assignment of frame switches off noFrame mode.

Example

texture.on('update', () => {});

orig

orig: Rectangle

This is the area of original texture, before it was put in atlas.

textureCacheIds

textureCacheIds: string[]

The ids under which this Texture has been added to the texture cache. This is automatically set as long as Texture.addToCache is used, but may not be set if a Texture is added directly to the TextureCache array.

trim

trim: Rectangle

This is the trimmed area of original texture, before it was put in atlas Please call updateUvs() after you change coordinates of trim manually.

uvMatrix

uvMatrix: TextureMatrix

Default TextureMatrix instance for this texture. By default, that object is not created because its heavy.

valid

valid: boolean

This will let the renderer know if the texture is valid. If it's not then it cannot be rendered.

Static prefixed

prefixed: string | boolean
