What is the difference between clone and copy in texture ?

Hello,
Thanks for reaching out to us.

In terms of texture, "clone" and "copy" represent distinct methods of duplicating or replicating textures:

Clone: When you clone a texture, you create an exact replica of the original texture. This means that any changes made to the original texture will also affect the cloned texture, as they are essentially the same texture instance. Cloning maintains a direct link between the original and the clone.

Copy: Copying a texture involves creating a new texture that is independent of the original. While the initial content of the copied texture may be the same as the original texture, any subsequent modifications to one texture will not affect the other. Copying essentially duplicates the texture data, but the copied texture operates independently from the original.

In summary, cloning maintains a direct link between the original and the duplicate texture, while copying creates an independent duplicate with no direct connection to the original.


Hope this resolves your query.
