EditorGUI.DrawPreviewTexture

static function DrawPreviewTexture(position: Rect, image: Texture, mat: Material = null, scaleMode: ScaleMode = ScaleMode.StretchToFill, imageAspect: float = 0): void;
static void DrawPreviewTexture(Rect position, Texture image, Material mat = null, ScaleMode scaleMode = ScaleMode.StretchToFill, float imageAspect = 0);
static def DrawPreviewTexture(position as Rect, image as Texture, mat as Material = null, scaleMode as ScaleMode = ScaleMode.StretchToFill, imageAspect as float = 0) as void

Parameters

positionRectangle on the screen to draw the texture within.
image Texture to display.
matMaterial to be used when drawing the texture.
scaleModeHow to scale the image when the aspect ratio of it doesn't fit the aspect ratio to be drawn within.
imageAspectAspect ratio to use for the source image. If 0 (the default), the aspect ratio from the image is used.

Description

Draws the texture within a rectangle.

If mat is null (the default), an appropriate material will be chosen for a RGBM or doubleLDR lightmap or a normal map and the fallback blit material will be chosen otherwise.
