Description

Texture importer lets you modify Texture2D import settings from editor scripts.

Settings of this class match the ones exposed in Texture Import Settings.

Properties

allowAlphaSplittingAllows alpha splitting on relevant platforms for this texture.
alphaIsTransparencyIf the provided alpha channel is transparency, enable this to prefilter the color to avoid filtering artifacts.
alphaSourceSelect how the alpha of the imported texture is generated.
alphaTestReferenceValueReturns or assigns the alpha test reference value.
androidETC2FallbackOverrideETC2 texture decompression fallback override on Android devices that don't support ETC2.
anisoLevelAnisotropic filtering level of the texture.
borderMipmapKeeps texture borders the same when generating mipmaps.
compressionQualityQuality of Texture Compression in the range [0..100].
convertToNormalmapConvert heightmap to normal map
crunchedCompressionUse crunched compression when available.
fadeoutFade out mip levels to gray color.
filterModeFiltering mode of the texture.
generateCubemapCubemap generation mode.
heightmapScaleAmount of bumpyness in the heightmap.
ignorePngGammaIgnore the Gamma attribute in PNG files. This property does not effect other file formats.
isReadableWhether Unity stores an additional copy of the imported texture's pixel data in CPU-addressable memory.
maxTextureSizeMaximum texture size.
mipMapBiasMip map bias of the texture.
mipmapEnabledGenerate Mip Maps.
mipmapFadeDistanceEndMip level where texture is faded out completely.
mipmapFadeDistanceStartMip level where texture begins to fade out.
mipmapFilterMipmap filtering mode.
mipMapsPreserveCoverageEnables or disables coverage-preserving alpha mipmapping.
normalmapFilterNormal map filtering mode.
npotScaleScaling mode for non power of two textures.
qualifiesForSpritePackingReturns true if this TextureImporter is setup for Sprite packing.
secondarySpriteTexturesSecondary textures for the imported Sprites.
spriteBorderBorder sizes of the generated sprites.
spriteImportModeSelects Single or Manual import mode for Sprite textures.
spritePackingTagSelects the Sprite packing tag.
spritePivotThe point in the Sprite object's coordinate space where the graphic is located.
spritePixelsPerUnitThe number of pixels in the sprite that correspond to one unit in world space.
spritesheetArray representing the sections of the atlas corresponding to individual sprite graphics.
sRGBTextureDetermines whether this texture stores color data.
streamingMipmapsEnable mipmap streaming for this texture.
streamingMipmapsPriorityRelative priority for this texture when reducing memory size in order to hit the memory budget.
textureCompressionCompression of imported texture.
textureShapeThe shape of the imported texture.
textureTypeWhich type of texture are we dealing with here.
vtOnlyWhen enabled, this texture can solely be used in combination with a Texture Stack for Virtual Texturing. When enabled the texture is not guaranteed to be available as a Texture2D in the Player (e.g., not accessible from a script). When disabled, the Player includes the texture both as a Texture2D (e.g., accessible from script) and as a streamable texture in a Texture Stack.
wrapModeTexture coordinate wrapping mode.
wrapModeUTexture U coordinate wrapping mode.
wrapModeVTexture V coordinate wrapping mode.
wrapModeWTexture W coordinate wrapping mode for Texture3D.

Public Methods

ClearPlatformTextureSettingsClear specific target platform settings.
DoesSourceTextureHaveAlphaAllows you to check whether the texture source image has an alpha channel.

IsPlatformTextureFormatValidValidates TextureImporterFormat based on a specified import type (TextureImporterType) and a specified build target (BuildTarget.).

Inherited Members

Properties

assetBundleNameGet or set the AssetBundle name.
assetBundleVariantGet or set the AssetBundle variant.

userDataGet or set any user data.
hideFlagsShould the object be hidden, saved with the Scene or modifiable by the user?
nameThe name of the object.

Public Methods

ToStringReturns the name of the object.

Static Methods

FindObjectsOfTypeGets a list of all loaded objects of Type type.
InstantiateClones the object original and returns the clone.

Operators

boolDoes the object exist?
operator !=Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
operator ==Compares two object references to see if they refer to the same object.
