class ChartAggregator ​

Computes new texture coordinates for a geometry with overlapping UV charts.

Properties ​

PropertyDescription
AutomaticTextureSizeMultiplierA texture dimension length multiplier for the automatic texture size.
ChartAggregatorModeDetermines which method to use when aggregating the UVs. TextureSizeProportions: Aggregated UV charts will be scaled to keep their relative pixel density relative to all other UV charts. The user can still set the size of the output texture maps. SurfaceArea: Aggregated UV charts will have their size set based on its actual geometrical size. OriginalPixelDensity: The combined atlas will be resized to fit each chart so that all charts retain the same amount of pixels as they originally had. This will override any manually set texture size. UVSizeProportions: Aggregated UV charts will have their size set based on its original UV size, disregarding the size of the texture they are used in.
ExpandZeroAreaUVsIf ExpandZeroAreaUVs is enabled then triangles that have zero area will be slightly expanded.
ForcePower2TextureIf UseAutomaticTextureSize is enabled, then force the texture sizes to be a power of 2.
GutterSpaceThe minimum number of pixels between charts.
InputMaterialCountThe number of input materials used in the original geometry for mapping to multiple output materials. This needs to be set before you can set any specific in-out material mapping. 0 signifies that no in-out material mapping is used, ie. the process will produce one resulting mapping image.
LockUVRotationIf LockUVRotation is enabled, only the original UV rotation will be used. Otherwise 4 rotations are used (90 degree rotations).
NameThe name of the ChartAggregator object. (Inherited from Object)
OriginalChartProportionsChannelSet OriginalChartProportionsChannel to an SG_MATERIAL_CHANNEL_[...]. This channel determines which texture channel to look at when determining which chart sizes to keep.
OutputMaterialCountThe number of output mapping images that are to be generated. The triangle field OutputMaterialIds also needs to be set, or the material IDs of the original geometry needs to be set to a specific output material in this setting object.
SurfaceAreaScaleIf multiple UV charts overlap and have the same material, SurfaceAreaScale specifies which of those instances determines the the output scale. It is only valid when the ChartAggregatorMode is SurfaceArea and SeparateOverlappingCharts is false.
TexCoordLevelWhich TexCoord level to get charts from during re-parameterization. If a TexCoordName is set, it will override the TexCoordLevel.
TexCoordNameWhich TexCoord name to get charts from during re-parameterization.
TextureHeightThe height of the texture to use.
TextureWidthThe width of the texture to use.
UseAutomaticTextureSizeThe automatic_texture_size flag. If true, then texture sizes will be computed for the reduced mesh depending on its pixel size on screen.
UseVertexWeightsThe UseVertexWeights flag to scale the charts according to their vertex weights.

Both InputMaterialCount and OutputMaterialCount need to be set for this mapping to work, and all original materials need to be mapped to an existing output id.
