Texture methods
The pixel height and width of the 2D images you use as textures should be powers of 2 (that is, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and so
on). If not, the image will be resized to a dimension that is a power of 2. The
manual control over this procedure at the texture level.
Method Description
Reduces the height of the texture to the next lowest power of 2.
scaleDown()
This is useful for dynamically resizing textures to fit on a client
machine.
Description
Determines whether bilinear filtering is used
when rendering a projected texture map that
covers more screen space than the original.
