Texture

Articles in this cluster cover Metashape's texture-generation behaviour: the algorithms behind Chunk.buildTexture, the parameters and modes that affect output, and the version transitions that have changed default behaviour over time.

Articles

• Color calibration: when to use it, what it does, and the white-balance / vignetting knobs
• Texture in Metashape 2.3 — what changed and why your scripts may need updating
• Texture blending modes — what each one actually does

Cluster contents

• Texture in Metashape 2.3 — what changed and why your scripts may need updating — the 2.3 API additions (Natural blending, new kwargs, changed defaults) and the script-compatibility implications.
• Texture blending modes — what each one actually does — Tier 3 empirical comparison of the five BlendingMode values available on 2.2.x (and 2.3.x without Natural). Reveals that MaxBlending and MinBlending select whole images by intensity rather than computing per-channel max / min, and that the Average mode's histogram is a useful registration- quality diagnostic.
