Methods¶
can_generate_small_preview ( ) virtual |

generate_from_path ( String path, Vector2 size ) virtual |
|
generate_small_preview_automatically ( ) virtual |

Method Descriptions¶
bool can_generate_small_preview ( ) virtual
If this function returns true
, the generator will call generate or generate_from_path for small previews as well.
By default, it returns false
.
Texture generate ( Resource from, Vector2 size ) virtual
Generate a preview from a given resource with the specified size. This must always be implemented.
Returning an empty texture is an OK way to fail and let another generator take care.
Care must be taken because this function is always called from a thread (not the main thread).
Texture generate_from_path ( String path, Vector2 size ) virtual
Generate a preview directly from a path with the specified size. Implementing this is optional, as default code will load and call generate.
Returning an empty texture is an OK way to fail and let another generator take care.
Care must be taken because this function is always called from a thread (not the main thread).
bool generate_small_preview_automatically ( ) virtual
If this function returns true
, the generator will automatically generate the small previews from the normal preview texture generated by the methods generate or generate_from_path.
By default, it returns false
.
bool handles ( String type ) virtual
Returns true
if your generator supports the resource of type type
.
