## Detailed Description

ProceduralTextureData is a helper type that allows creation of TextureData from QML. The TextureData component is Abstract, and is usually created from C++. With ProceduralTextureData, it is possible to populate a TextureData from QML.

     ProceduralTextureData {
         id: dynamicTextureData
         property color color1: "red"
         property color color2: "black"
         width: 32
         height: 32
         hasTransparency: false
         format: TextureData.RGBA8
         textureData: generateTextureData(color1, color2)

         function generateTextureData(newColor1: color, newColor2 : color) : ArrayBuffer {
             let dataBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(width * height * 4)
             let data = new Uint8Array(dataBuffer)
             // Create a checkered pattern using newColor1 and newColor2
             for (let x = 0; x < width; x++) {
                 for (let y = 0; y < height; y++) {
                     let index = (x + y * width) * 4
                     let color = (x % 2 === y % 2) ? newColor1 : newColor2
                     data[index + 0] = color.r * 255
                     data[index + 1] = color.g * 255
                     data[index + 2] = color.b * 255
                     data[index + 3] = 255
                 }
             }
             return dataBuffer
         }
     }

In the above code snippet, the function generateTextureData is used to generate a checkerboard pattern using the two colors color1 and color2. By filling an ArrayBuffer with the generated data, the textureData property of the TextureData is populated.

## Property Documentation

depth : int `[default: 0]`

This property holds the depth of the texture data in pixels. Setting the depth above 0 means that the texture is handled as a 3D texture.

format : enumeration `[default: TextureData.RGBA8]`

This property holds the format of the texture data.

Note: With the exception of `TexureData.RGBA8`, not every format is supported at runtime as this depends on which backend is being used as well which hardware is being used.

Note: `TexureData.RGBE` is internally represented as an `TexureData.RGBA8` but is interpreted as described when used as a lightProbe or skybox texture.

Note: Using the value `TexureData.None` will assume the default value of `TexureData.RGBA8`

hasTransparency : bool

This property holds whether the texture data has transparency.

height : int `[default: 0]`

This property holds the height of the texture data in pixels.

textureData : ArrayBuffer

This property holds the texture data.

width : int `[default: 0]`
