HI I am trying to use a Shader Effect on an Image in Unity.
The code is happy to run in Blend (but gives a weird effect)
But its giving me a error " Unknown type 'NoesisGUIExtensions.TintEffect'" when it runs in Unity?
Am I doing something obviously wrong?
(v3.1.4)


	 xmlns:noesis="clr-namespace:NoesisGUIExtensions;assembly=Noesis.GUI.Extensions"


        <Image
            Name="Basemap"
            Width="800"
            Height="600"
            Margin="0,0,0,0"
            HorizontalAlignment="Center"
            VerticalAlignment="Center"
            Source="{Binding StoryImage}"
            Stretch="UniformToFill" >
            <Image.Effect>
                <noesis:TintEffect Color="Orange"/>
            </Image.Effect>
        </Image>

Before going into more detail, have you tried the example "VideoEffect" included in our package? It comes with a Tint effect.

I have had a look and successfully got my image tinting working via the examples approach of adding a new ShaderEffect class & a shader into Unity.

Out of interest does the NoesisApp Tinting shader described here still work?

or was I using it incorrectly?

NoesisApp shaders are not available in Unity. We have plans to include them in the future but I think it is always going to be better implementing your own specific shader tailored to what you need in your game.

Note also that for tinting, a Shader Brush is going to be more efficient. For example see MonochromeBrushShader

Got, it.
Many thanks for the info :)
