<Texture> (inherits from <LayoutFrame>, creates a Texture widget) draws an image, solid color, or gradient.

<Texture>
	<TexCoords />
	<Color />
	<Gradient />
</Texture>

Attributes

file (xs:string?Optional. Could be nil.) - Loads a BLP, JPEG or TGA.

mask (xs:string?Optional. Could be nil.) - Applies a <MaskTexture>.

alphaMode (ui:ALPHAMODE?) - Blends overlapping textures.

alpha (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Sets opacity from 0 to 1.

scale (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Scales the widget's coordinate system.

snapToPixelGrid (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.)

texelSnappingBias (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.)

hWrapMode (ui:WRAPMODE)

vWrapMode (ui:WRAPMODE)

ignoreParentAlpha (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.) - Controls alpha directly or as a fraction of its parent's alpha.

ignoreParentScale (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.) - Controls alpha directly or as a fraction of its parent's scale.

nonBlocking (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.)

horizTile (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.)

vertTile (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.)

atlas (xs:string?Optional. Could be nil.) - Loads a predefined file and coords.

useAtlasSize (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.)

desaturated (xs:boolean?Optional. Could be nil.) - Removes color.

Child elements

<TexCoords> samples part of an image file, using either four edges or a <Rect> child element.

left (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) -Left edge, normalized from left (0) to right (1).

right (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Right edge, normalized from left (0) to right (1).

top (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Top edge, normalized from top (0) to bottom (1).

bottom (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Bottom edge, normalized from top (0) to bottom (1).

<Rect> has eight attributes to define an affine transformation from arbitrary (non-right-angled) corners.

ULx (xs:float) - Upper-left, x coord, normalized from left (0) to right (1).

ULy (xs:float) - Upper-left, y coord, normalized from top (0) to bottom (1).

LLx (xs:float) - Lower-left, x coord, normalized from left (0) to right (1).

LLy (xs:float) - Lower-left, y coord, normalized from top (0) to bottom (1).

URx (xs:float) - Upper-right, x coord, normalized from left (0) to right (1).

URy (xs:float) - Upper-right, y coord, normalized from top (0) to bottom (1).

LRx (xs:float) - Lower-right, x coord, normalized from left (0) to right (1).

LRy (xs:float) - Lower-right, y coord, normalized from top (0) to bottom (1).

<Color> sets color using RGB values or a ColorMixin, and alpha.

r (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Red component from 0.0 (default) to 1.0.

g (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Green component from 0.0 (default) to 1.0.

b (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Blue component from 0.0 (default) to 1.0.

a (xs:float?Optional. Could be nil.) - Alpha (opacity) from 0.0 to 1.0 (default).

name (xs:string?Optional. Could be nil.) - Name of a ColorMixin made with CreateColor().

<Gradient> defines a gradient between two solid colors, <MinColor> and <MaxColor>.

orientation (ui:ORIENTATION) - "HORIZONTAL" (default) or "VERTICAL"

<MinColor> and <MaxColor> inherit from <Color>

Example

<Texture name="SparkleTextureNormal" file="Interface\ItemSocketingFrame\UI-ItemSockets" alphaMode="ADD" hidden="true">
	<Size>
		<AbsDimension x="13" y="13"/>
	</Size>
	<Anchors>
		<Anchor point="CENTER">
			<Offset>
				<AbsDimension x="0" y="0"/>
			</Offset>
 		</Anchor>
	</Anchors>
	<TexCoords left="0.3984375" right="0.4453125" top="0.40234375" bottom="0.44921875"/>
</Texture>

Notes

• If the XML texture has no anchors, the texture object will implicitly have :SetAllPoints() called on it.
