public static void CaptureScreenshotIntoRenderTexture(RenderTexture renderTexture)
Parameters
RenderTexture that will get filled with the screen content.
Remarks
This variant of screen capture makes it possible to read pixels asynchronously using AsyncGPUReadback, making the process consume less time on the main thread.
Important: To ensure reliable results, always wait until the frame rendering process is complete before calling this method. To guarantee this, you can call it from a coroutine that yields on WaitForEndOfFrame.
Examples
using UnityEngine;using System.Collections;using UnityEngine.Rendering;public class ScreenCaptureIntoRenderTexture : MonoBehaviour{ private RenderTexture renderTexture; IEnumerator Start() { yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame(); renderTexture = new RenderTexture(Screen.width, Screen.height, 0); ScreenCapture.CaptureScreenshotIntoRenderTexture(renderTexture); AsyncGPUReadback.Request(renderTexture, 0, TextureFormat.RGBA32, ReadbackCompleted); } void ReadbackCompleted(AsyncGPUReadbackRequest request) { // Render texture no longer needed, it has been read back. DestroyImmediate(renderTexture); using (var imageBytes = request.GetData<byte>()) { // do something with the pixel data. } }}
