Type: AnimData, (readonly)

color_ramp

Type: ColorRamp, (readonly)

contrast

Adjust the contrast of the texture

Type: float in [0, 5], default 1.0

factor_blue

Type: float in [0, 2], default 1.0

factor_green

Type: float in [0, 2], default 1.0

factor_red

Type: float in [0, 2], default 1.0

intensity

Adjust the brightness of the texture

Type: float in [0, 2], default 1.0

node_tree

Node tree for node-based textures

Type: NodeTree, (readonly)

saturation

Adjust the saturation of colors in the texture

Type: float in [0, 2], default 1.0

type

NONE None.
BLEND Blend – Procedural - create a ramp texture.
CLOUDS Clouds – Procedural - create a cloud-like fractal noise texture.
DISTORTED_NOISE Distorted Noise – Procedural - noise texture distorted by two noise algorithms.
IMAGE Image or Movie – Allow for images or movies to be used as textures.
MAGIC Magic – Procedural - color texture based on trigonometric functions.
MARBLE Marble – Procedural - marble-like noise texture with wave generated bands.
MUSGRAVE Musgrave – Procedural - highly flexible fractal noise texture.
NOISE Noise – Procedural - random noise, gives a different result every time, for every frame, for every pixel.
STUCCI Stucci – Procedural - create a fractal noise texture.
VORONOI Voronoi – Procedural - create cell-like patterns based on Worley noise.
WOOD Wood – Procedural - wave generated bands or rings, with optional noise.

Type: enum in [‘NONE’, ‘BLEND’, ‘CLOUDS’, ‘DISTORTED_NOISE’, ‘IMAGE’, ‘MAGIC’, ‘MARBLE’, ‘MUSGRAVE’, ‘NOISE’, ‘STUCCI’, ‘VORONOI’, ‘WOOD’], default ‘IMAGE’

use_clamp

Set negative texture RGB and intensity values to zero, for some uses like displacement this option can be disabled to get the full range

Type: boolean, default False

use_color_ramp

Map the texture intensity to the color ramp. Note that the alpha value is used for image textures, enable “Calculate Alpha” for images without an alpha channel

Type: boolean, default False

use_nodes

Make this a node-based texture

Type: boolean, default False

use_preview_alpha

Show Alpha in Preview Render

Type: boolean, default False

users_material

Materials that use this texture

(readonly)

users_object_modifier

Object modifiers that use this texture

(readonly)

evaluate(value)

Evaluate the texture at the a given coordinate and returns the result

Parameters: value (float array of 3 items in [-inf, inf]) – The coordinates (x,y,z) of the texture, in case of a 3D texture, the z value is the slice of the texture that is evaluated. For 2D textures such as images, the z value is ignored
Returns: The result of the texture where (x,y,z,w) are (red, green, blue, intensity). For greyscale textures, often intensity only will be used
Return type: float array of 4 items in [-inf, inf]

classmethod bl_rna_get_subclass(id, default=None)

Parameters: id (string) – The RNA type identifier.
Returns: The RNA type or default when not found.
Return type: bpy.types.Struct subclass

classmethod bl_rna_get_subclass_py(id, default=None)

Parameters: id (string) – The RNA type identifier.
Returns: The class or default when not found.
Return type: type
