Hello,

I'm trying to edit the pixels of a texture in order to create a program like Paint (windows). The idea is that the user can use the mouse to draw in a screen.

This is my code, I create an array of pixels and set it with white and red pixels. But when I try to render the texture I can only see a red quad. (It's only rendering one color)

I'm using OpenGL 2.0

for(int y = 0; y < SCREEN_WIDTH; ++y) 
    for(int x = 0; x < SCREEN_HEIGHT; ++x)
    {
        if(x % 2 == 0)
        {
           screenData[y][x][0] = 179;
           screenData[y][x][1] = 53;
           screenData[y][x][2] = 53;
        }
        else
        {
           screenData[y][x][0] = 255;
           screenData[y][x][1] = 255;
           screenData[y][x][2] = 255;
        }
    }
 
glPixelStorei(GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT, 1);
//Generate a texture and holds the ID in blackboard
glGenTextures(1, &blackboard);
//Set the current texture in order to modify it
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, blackboard);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
 
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGB, 1280, 720, 0, GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, &screenData);

remove the ampersand infront of 'screenData' at the end of your glTexImage2D call. you're passing in the address of the address of the data, when you just want the address of the data (which is what 'screenData' alone already is)

Thanks for the replies.

The problem is the same after the changes, Just the red color is rendering.

// Clear screen
for(int y = 0; y < SCREEN_HEIGHT; ++y) 
for(int x = 0; x < SCREEN_WIDTH; ++x)
{
if(x % 2 == 0)
{
screenData[y][x][0] = 179;
screenData[y][x][1] = 53;
screenData[y][x][2] = 53;
}
else
{
screenData[y][x][0] = 255;
screenData[y][x][1] = 255;
screenData[y][x][2] = 255;
}
}
 
glPixelStorei(GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT, 1);
//Generate a texture and holds the ID in blackboard
glGenTextures(1, &blackboard);
//Set the current texture in order to modify it
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, blackboard);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
 
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGB, 1280, 720, 0, GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, screenData);

Generation of texture co-ordinates may be wrong (not shown in the OP's snippet). Do you use normalized co-ordinates or full size co-ordinates for (u,v)?

Here are my drawing routines, and my shaders.

Drawing routine:

//We clear the COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, this is the buffer that handle color issues.
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
 
//Set the Vertex Attribute with VertexArray
glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, false, 0, vertexArray);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);
glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, 0, 4);
 
// Call IwGL swap instead of egl directly
IwGLSwapBuffers();
