How to take a Screenshot that includes GUI
I am trying to take a screenshot (with GUI controls shown on screen) whilst in web player and put the screenshot as a Texture2D
I know that Application.CaptureScreenshot("Screenshot.png") does not work from inside the web player
and Texture2D.ReadPixels() doesn't render any GUI controls.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this?
Taken from an example from the docs: http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/WWWForm.html
function UploadPNG() { // We should only read the screen after all rendering is complete yield WaitForEndOfFrame();
// Create a texture the size of the screen, RGB24 format
var width = Screen.width;
var height = Screen.height;
var tex = new Texture2D( width, height, TextureFormat.RGB24, false );
// Read screen contents into the texture
tex.ReadPixels( Rect(0, 0, width, height), 0, 0 );
tex.Apply();
// Encode texture into PNG
var bytes = tex.EncodeToPNG();
Destroy( tex );
}
texture2D.ReadPixels() does not work. please read my question before answering it
The secret here is the yield WaitForEndOfFrame; This will allow the GUI to be rendered first, allowing ReadPixels() to catch the gui
