FrameXML Wowprogramming

Texture (inherits from LayeredRegion, created with Frame:CreateTexture) displays a color block, a gradient, or a graphic raster taken from a .tga, .blp or .jpg file.

As a kind of LayeredRegion, Texture is always inside a layer within a Frame (or any type inheriting from Frame). In Lua the layer is an argument to CreateTexture(), and in XML <Layers> and <Layer> tags surround <Texture>.

Defined Methods

Most methods relate to setting appearance or source information.

Texture:GetAtlas()

Texture:GetBlendMode() - Returns the AlphaMode.

Texture:GetDesaturation()

Texture:GetHorizTile()

Texture:GetNonBlocking()

Texture:GetNumMaskTextures()

Texture:GetRotation()

Texture:GetTexCoord() - Gets the 8 texture coordinates that map to the Texture's corners - New in 1.11.

Texture:GetTexelSnappingBias()

Texture:GetTexture() - Gets this texture's current texture path.

Texture:GetTextureFileID()

Texture:GetTextureFilePath()

Texture:GetVertexColor() - Gets the vertex color for the Texture.

Texture:GetVertexOffset(vertexIndex)

Texture:GetVertTile()

Texture:IsDesaturated() - Gets the desaturation state of this Texture. - New in 1.11

Texture:IsSnappingToPixelGrid()

Texture:SetAtlas(atlasName [, useAtlasSize, filterMode])

Texture:SetBlendMode(mode) - Defines the AlphaMode.

Texture:SetColorTexture(r, g, b [, a]) - Creates a solid-color texture

Texture:SetDesaturated(flag) - Set whether this texture should be displayed with no saturation (Note: This has a return value)

Texture:SetDesaturation()

Texture:SetGradient(orientation, minR, minG, minB, maxR, maxG, maxB)

Texture:SetGradientAlpha(orientation, minR, minG, minB, minA, maxR, maxG, maxB, maxA)

Texture:SetHorizTile(horizTile) - Sets whether the widget should adjust horizontal texture coordinates based on texture and widget dimensions.

Texture:SetNonBlocking()

Texture:SetRotation(angle [, cx, cy]) - Applies a counter-clockwise rotation to the texture.

Texture:SetSnapToPixelGrid()

Texture:SetTexCoord(minX, maxX, minY, maxY or ULx, ULy, LLx, LLy, URx, URy, LRx, LRy) - Modifies the region of a texture drawn by the Texture widget.

Texture:SetTexelSnappingBias(texelSnappingBias) where texelSnappingBias is [0-1]

Texture:SetTexture(file [, horizWrap, vertWrap, filterMode]) - Changes the texture displayed by the Texture widget.

Texture:SetVertexOffset(vertexIndex, offsetX, offsetY)

Texture:SetVertTile(horizTile) - Sets whether the widget should adjust vertical texture coordinates based on texture and widget dimensions.

Texture Masks

Texture:AddMaskTexture(maskTexture)

Texture:GetMaskTexture(index)

Texture:RemoveMaskTexture(maskTexture)

Texture:SetMask(maskName)

Examples

Creates a texture with Frame:CreateTexture()

local f = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
f:SetPoint("CENTER")
f:SetSize(64, 64)

local tex = f:CreateTexture()
tex:SetAllPoints(f)
tex:SetTexture("interface/icons/inv_mushroom_11")

Creates the same texture with <Texture>

<Frame parent="UIParent">
	<Layers>
		<Layer level="ARTWORK">
			<Texture file="interface/icons/inv_mushroom_11">
				<Anchors>
					<Anchor point="TOPLEFT" />
					<Anchor point="BOTTOMRIGHT" />
				</Anchors>
			</Texture>
		</Layer>
	</Layers>
	<Size><AbsDimension x="64" y="64" /></Size>
	<Anchors><Anchor point="CENTER" /></Anchors>
</Frame>
