Thanks, think I may have explained it wrong though. I don’t have a native texture to use. I have some data I want to use in a shader via a texture. I need to create a QSGTexture type object but there doesn’t seem to be any existing API to do that beyond createTextureFromImage().
I presume I’d need to derive and use RHI itself to create an RHI texture but was hoping to find an example which that in the context of the scene graph, especially when it comes to the creation of the RHI texture and the uploading/updating of the data.
