Detailed Description
TextureProviderExtension is an uncreatable abstract base type for render extensions that expose a GPU texture to the Qt Quick 3D scene. Subclasses (such as RenderOutputProvider) can be assigned to the textureProvider property of a Texture, causing the extension's render code to run automatically when the texture is needed by the scene.
See also RenderOutputProvider, QQuick3DTextureProviderExtension, and QSSGRenderExtension.
Enumeration Documentation
[since 6.11] SamplerHint
Specifies a hint about the type of texture the extension provides.
| Constant | Description |
|---|---|
TextureProviderExtension.Sampler2D | A 2D texture |
TextureProviderExtension.Sampler2DArray | An array texture |
TextureProviderExtension.Sampler3D | A 3D texture |
TextureProviderExtension.SamplerCube | A cube map texture |
TextureProviderExtension.SamplerCubeArray | An array of cube map textures |
TextureProviderExtension.SamplerBuffer | A buffer texture |
This enumeration was introduced in Qt 6.11.
Property Documentation
samplerHint : SamplerHint [since 6.11]
This property contains a hint about the type of texture that will be provided by the extension. This is necessary because the texture data will not be provided until it is necessary, but materials that use the Texture component need to know what type of sampler to provide.
The default value is TextureProviderExtension.Sampler2D.
Note: This property is only used when using CustomMaterials.
This property was introduced in Qt 6.11.
