Detailed Description

Given an RGBA mask texture, content of the backbuffer will be rendered as:

 vec4 pixelColor = vec4(inputColor.rgb, inputColor.a * maskColor.a)

A premultiplied alpha variant of the algorithm is also available which can be of use when combining Qt 3D / Kuesa content with 2D QtQuick content (Scene3D). It performs rendering doing:

 vec4 pixelColor = vec4(inputColor.rgb / maskColor.a, inputColor.a * maskColor.a);
 import Kuesa 1.1 as Kuesa
 import Kuesa.Effects 1.1

 Kuesa.SceneEnity {
     id: root
     components: [
         RenderSettings {
             Kuesa.ForwardRenderer {
                 postProcessingEffects: [
                     OpacityMask {
                         mask: TextureLoader {
                             source: ":/opacity_mask.png";
                             generateMipMaps: false
                         }
                     }
                 ]
             }
         }
     ]
     ...
 }

mask : Qt3DRender.AbstractTexture

The RGBA texture to use as a mask.


premultipliedAlpha : bool

Specifies whether the masking should be performed using premultipliedAlpha. This can be useful when combining Kuesa and QtQuick with a Scene3D element. It is false by default.
