PowerUI.ImageCache Class Reference

Detailed Description

There may be times when you want to display an image for which you only have the Texture2D object, a RenderTexture or an SPA file. In this case, you can add it to the cache with a given name and then access it in PowerUI using cache://theNameYouUsed. The most useful method for this is PowerUI.ImageCache.Add. This avoids having to serialize the image and unserialize it again (i.e. as with the data:// URLs).
