how to get pixel color ??

[Martinezzz]

is there simple fast way to get pixel data at given position    aka    pcolor(x,y)


i need to read colordatta  form allredy drawn screen

It's not fast but you could render to a rendertexture then copy its content to an sf::Image (copyToImage()) and then call getPixel().

i cant find actualy how to copy from renderTexture to image. in google ewery body says look in doc but there actualy nothing similar

there are functions to copy from memory from file stream etc..

[AlexAUT]

Look at the doc of sf::RenderTexture: there you will find getTexture() which return a sf::Texture. Then look at the doc of sf::Texture and there you will find a function copyToImage(). And the docs of sf::Image contains getPixel()

auto image = renderTexture.getTexture().copyToImage();
auto color = image.getPixel(1,1);

Thanks. Hope this will work. I use pysfml there litl bit different names .. but i figured this out

If speed is not an issue, it may be simpler to capture the window directly to an image. You will then have you image on which to use getPixel().

Martinezzz, the PySFML website has great API docs (python-sfml.org).
