Description
The Clear
method in the Sandbox.Graphics
class is used to clear the current render target with specified options. This method allows you to clear the color, depth, and stencil buffers of the render target, which is essential for preparing the render target for new drawing operations.
Usage
To use the Clear
method, you need to specify the color to clear with and whether to clear the color, depth, and stencil buffers. This is typically done at the beginning of a rendering pass to ensure that the previous frame's data does not interfere with the current frame.
Parameters:
color
: A Color
object representing the color to clear the render target with.
clearColor
: A bool
indicating whether the color buffer should be cleared.
clearDepth
: A bool
indicating whether the depth buffer should be cleared.
clearStencil
: A bool
indicating whether the stencil buffer should be cleared.
Example
// Example of using the Clear method
Color clearColor = new Color(0, 0, 0, 1); // Black color
bool shouldClearColor = true;
bool shouldClearDepth = true;
bool shouldClearStencil = false;
// Clear the render target with the specified parameters
Graphics.Clear(clearColor, shouldClearColor, shouldClearDepth, shouldClearStencil);
