The LINEAR_ARGB8888 field is a member of the ImageFormat enumeration in the Sandbox namespace. This field represents an image format where the color components are stored in a linear color space with 8 bits per channel for alpha, red, green, and blue channels, in that order. This format is useful for high-quality image processing where linear color space is required to maintain color accuracy and consistency.
Use ImageFormat.LINEAR_ARGB8888 when you need to work with images that require linear color space processing. This format is particularly useful in scenarios where color blending and other image processing operations need to be performed with high precision and accuracy.
// Example of using LINEAR_ARGB8888 in a texture loading function
Texture texture = Texture.Load("path/to/texture.png", ImageFormat.LINEAR_ARGB8888);
// This ensures the texture is processed in linear color space
// which is important for certain rendering techniques.
