Base class for all render targets (window, texture, ...)
sf::RenderTarget defines the common behavior of all the 2D render targets usable in the graphics module.
It makes it possible to draw 2D entities like sprites, shapes, text without using any OpenGL command directly.
A sf::RenderTarget is also able to use views (sf::View), which are a kind of 2D cameras. With views you can globally scroll, rotate or zoom everything that is drawn, without having to transform every single entity. See the documentation of sf::View for more details and sample pieces of code about this class.
On top of that, render targets are still able to render direct OpenGL stuff. It is even possible to mix together OpenGL calls and regular SFML drawing commands. When doing so, make sure that OpenGL states are not messed up by calling the pushGLStates/popGLStates functions.

This function is usually called once every frame, to clear the previous contents of the target.

const View & sf::RenderTarget::getDefaultView | ( | ) | const |
|
pure virtual |
Return the size of the rendering region of the target.
Implemented in sf::RenderTexture, and sf::RenderWindow.
const View & sf::RenderTarget::getView | ( | ) | const |
Get the view currently in use in the render target.
Get the viewport of a view, applied to this render target.
The viewport is defined in the view as a ratio, this function simply applies this ratio to the current dimensions of the render target to calculate the pixels rectangle that the viewport actually covers in the target.
view | The view for which we want to compute the viewport |
|
protected |
Performs the common initialization step after creation.
The derived classes must call this function after the target is created and ready for drawing.
|
virtual |
Tell if the render target will use sRGB encoding when drawing on it.
Reimplemented in sf::RenderTexture, and sf::RenderWindow.
Convert a point from world coordinates to target coordinates, using the current view.
This function is an overload of the mapCoordsToPixel function that implicitly uses the current view. It is equivalent to:
point | Point to convert |
Convert a point from world coordinates to target coordinates.
This function finds the pixel of the render target that matches the given 2D point. In other words, it goes through the same process as the graphics card, to compute the final position of a rendered point.
Initially, both coordinate systems (world units and target pixels) match perfectly. But if you define a custom view or resize your render target, this assertion is not true anymore, i.e. a point located at (150, 75) in your 2D world may map to the pixel (10, 50) of your render target – if the view is translated by (140, 25).
This version uses a custom view for calculations, see the other overload of the function if you want to use the current view of the render target.
point | Point to convert |
view | The view to use for converting the point |
Convert a point from target coordinates to world coordinates, using the current view.
This function is an overload of the mapPixelToCoords function that implicitly uses the current view. It is equivalent to:
point | Pixel to convert |
Convert a point from target coordinates to world coordinates.
This function finds the 2D position that matches the given pixel of the render target. In other words, it does the inverse of what the graphics card does, to find the initial position of a rendered pixel.
Initially, both coordinate systems (world units and target pixels) match perfectly. But if you define a custom view or resize your render target, this assertion is not true anymore, i.e. a point located at (10, 50) in your render target may map to the point (150, 75) in your 2D world – if the view is translated by (140, 25).
For render-windows, this function is typically used to find which point (or object) is located below the mouse cursor.
This version uses a custom view for calculations, see the other overload of the function if you want to use the current view of the render target.
point | Pixel to convert |
view | The view to use for converting the point |
void sf::RenderTarget::popGLStates | ( | ) |
Restore the previously saved OpenGL render states and matrices.
See the description of pushGLStates to get a detailed description of these functions.
void sf::RenderTarget::pushGLStates | ( | ) |
Save the current OpenGL render states and matrices.
This function can be used when you mix SFML drawing and direct OpenGL rendering. Combined with popGLStates, it ensures that:
More specifically, it must be used around code that calls Draw functions. Example:
Note that this function is quite expensive: it saves all the possible OpenGL states and matrices, even the ones you don't care about. Therefore it should be used wisely. It is provided for convenience, but the best results will be achieved if you handle OpenGL states yourself (because you know which states have really changed, and need to be saved and restored). Take a look at the resetGLStates function if you do so.
void sf::RenderTarget::resetGLStates | ( | ) |
Reset the internal OpenGL states so that the target is ready for drawing.
This function can be used when you mix SFML drawing and direct OpenGL rendering, if you choose not to use pushGLStates/popGLStates. It makes sure that all OpenGL states needed by SFML are set, so that subsequent draw() calls will work as expected.
Example:
|
virtual |
Activate or deactivate the render target for rendering.
This function makes the render target's context current for future OpenGL rendering operations (so you shouldn't care about it if you're not doing direct OpenGL stuff). A render target's context is active only on the current thread, if you want to make it active on another thread you have to deactivate it on the previous thread first if it was active. Only one context can be current in a thread, so if you want to draw OpenGL geometry to another render target don't forget to activate it again. Activating a render target will automatically deactivate the previously active context (if any).
active | True to activate, false to deactivate |
Reimplemented in sf::RenderTexture, and sf::RenderWindow.
void sf::RenderTarget::setView | ( | const View & | view | ) |
Change the current active view.
The view is like a 2D camera, it controls which part of the 2D scene is visible, and how it is viewed in the render target. The new view will affect everything that is drawn, until another view is set. The render target keeps its own copy of the view object, so it is not necessary to keep the original one alive after calling this function. To restore the original view of the target, you can pass the result of getDefaultView() to this function.
