class_name BaseCel
extends Reference
## Base class for cel properties.
## The term "cel" comes from "celluloid" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cel).

signal texture_changed

var opacity: float
var image_texture: ImageTexture
# If the cel is linked a ref to the link set Dictionary this cel is in, or null if not linked:
var link_set = null  # { "cels": Array, "hue": float } or null
var transformed_content: Image  # Used in transformations (moving, scaling etc with selections)

# Methods to Override:


# The content methods deal with the unique content of each cel type. For example, an Image for
# PixelLayers, or a Dictionary of settings for a procedural layer type, and null for Groups.
# Can be used for linking/unlinking cels, copying, and deleting content

# Can be used to delete the content of the cel with set_content
# (using the old content from get_content as undo data)
func create_empty_content():
	return []


# Can be used for creating copy content for copying cels or unlinking cels
func copy_content():

# Returns the image var for image based cel types, or a render for procedural types.
# It's meant for read-only usage of image data, such as copying selections or color picking.
