  6. EditorResourcePreviewGenerator
  7. ==============================
  8. **Inherits:** :ref:`Reference<class_Reference>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`
  9. Custom generator of previews.
  10. Description
  11. -----------
  12. Custom code to generate previews. Please check ``file_dialog/thumbnail_size`` in :ref:`EditorSettings<class_EditorSettings>` to find out the right size to do previews at.

  26. Method Descriptions
  27. -------------------
  28. .. _class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_can_generate_small_preview:
  29. - :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **can_generate_small_preview** **(** **)** |virtual|
  30. If this function returns ``true``, the generator will call :ref:`generate<class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate>` or :ref:`generate_from_path<class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate_from_path>` for small previews as well.
  31. By default, it returns ``false``.
  32. ----
  33. .. _class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate:
  34. - :ref:`Texture<class_Texture>` **generate** **(** :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>` from, :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` size **)** |virtual|
  35. Generate a preview from a given resource with the specified size. This must always be implemented.
  36. Returning an empty texture is an OK way to fail and let another generator take care.
  37. Care must be taken because this function is always called from a thread (not the main thread).
  38. ----
  39. .. _class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate_from_path:
  40. - :ref:`Texture<class_Texture>` **generate_from_path** **(** :ref:`String<class_String>` path, :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` size **)** |virtual|
  41. Generate a preview directly from a path with the specified size. Implementing this is optional, as default code will load and call :ref:`generate<class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate>`.
  42. Returning an empty texture is an OK way to fail and let another generator take care.
  43. Care must be taken because this function is always called from a thread (not the main thread).
  44. ----
  45. .. _class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate_small_preview_automatically:
  46. - :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **generate_small_preview_automatically** **(** **)** |virtual|
  47. If this function returns ``true``, the generator will automatically generate the small previews from the normal preview texture generated by the methods :ref:`generate<class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate>` or :ref:`generate_from_path<class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_generate_from_path>`.
  48. By default, it returns ``false``.
  49. ----
  50. .. _class_EditorResourcePreviewGenerator_method_handles:
  51. - :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **handles** **(** :ref:`String<class_String>` type **)** |virtual|
  52. Returns ``true`` if your generator supports the resource of type ``type``.
  53. .. |virtual| replace:: :abbr:`virtual (This method should typically be overridden by the user to have any effect.)`
  54. .. |const| replace:: :abbr:`const (This method has no side effects. It doesn't modify any of the instance's member variables.)`
  55. .. |vararg| replace:: :abbr:`vararg (This method accepts any number of arguments after the ones described here.)`
