Issue with converting Texture to Image
« on: September 17, 2023, 09:17:08 pm »
Hello I am trying to convert from a texture to an image, and I have combed the sfml forums and sfml documentation and the only answer given is texture.copyFromImage(). However, this does not work, as I get an error message claiming class"sf::RenderTexture" has no member "copyFromImage". In order to make sure I wasnt missing something, I included every Sfml graphics header file. Has sfml been updated or am I doing something wrong?

An sf::Texture and sf::RenderTexture are different things. You're looking for Texture.copyFromImage() not RenderTexture.copyFromImage().

I believe it's "copyToImage" not "copyFromImage".

If you have a texture:
Image img = tex.copyToTexture();

If you have a rendertexture:
Image img = rendtex.getTexture().copyToTexture();
