OnBuildFonts

An event that is called any time ImGui fonts need to be rebuilt.

LoadImage(String)

Loads an image from the specified file.

Declaration

public TextureWrap LoadImage(string filePath)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	filePath	The full filepath to the image.

LoadImageRaw(Byte[], Int32, Int32, Int32)

Loads an image from raw unformatted pixel data, with no type or header information. To load formatted data, use LoadImage(Byte[]).

Declaration

public TextureWrap LoadImageRaw(byte[] imageData, int width, int height, int numChannels)
