UI Lua API import (WAR 1.4.8)

New page

{{LuaApi|group=DynamicImage}}
Shows a named slice of a DynamicImage's texture.

<pre>
DynamicImageSetTextureSlice(imageName, sliceName)
</pre>

== Arguments ==
;imageName : <code>string</code> – Name of a DynamicImage window.
;sliceName : <code>string</code> – Name of a slice defined for the image's texture.

== Returns ==
Nothing.

== Details ==
* The slice name is stored on the image. If the image's texture is already loaded, the client also looks the slice up and raises ''Slice %s not found'' if it does not exist.
* The stock UI passes <code>""</code> to clear the slice before calling [[API:DynamicImageSetTexture|DynamicImageSetTexture]].
* This function's error messages end with a full stop, unlike most others.

== Errors ==
* <code>Error in function call 'DynamicImageSetTextureSlice': Window %s does not exist.</code>
* <code>Error in function call 'DynamicImageSetTextureSlice': Window %s is not a DynamicImage.</code>
* <code>Error in function call 'DynamicImageSetTextureSlice': Slice %s not found.</code> (slice name)

== Example ==
Using a slice of a shared texture, from <code>easystem_tooltips/source/maptooltips.lua</code>:
<pre>
DynamicImageSetTexture( iconWindow, "map_markers01", 0, 0 )
DynamicImageSetTextureSlice( iconWindow, "QuestAvailable-LiveEvent" )
</pre>

From <code>easystem_threepartbar/source/ea_threepartbar.lua</code>:
<pre>
DynamicImageSetTextureSlice( self.barName.."LeftEndCap", leftTexSlice )
DynamicImageSetTextureSlice( self.barName.."RightEndCap", rightTexSlice )
</pre>
