Screenshot to variable

Questions & Answers
1

When I call the ‘TakeScreenshot’ function i want it to take a screenshot and place it into a variable. I was looking at Application.CaptureScreenshot () but could not get it to work.

Any help would be much appreciated

   var ScreenShot : Texture; //Screenshot here
    
    function TakeScreenshot ()
    {
         //Screenshot Code here
    }

CaptureScreenshot() is for saving to a file. For writing pixels from the screen to a texture, use ReadPixels:

void TakeScreenshot() {
  ScreenShot = new Texture2D(Screen.width, Screen.height, TextureFormat.RGB24, false);
  ScreenShot.ReadPixels(new Rect(0, 0, Screen.width, Screen.height), 0, 0);
  ScreenShot.Apply();
}

(This is for C# - you may need to modify it if you’re using Unityscript).
