The Is Identity Action

	#include "ofxImageEffect.h"
	#define kOfxImageEffectActionIsIdentity            "OfxImageEffectActionIsIdentity"
Arguments

Description

Sometimes an effect can pass through an input uprocessed, for example a blur effect with a blur size of 0. This action can be called by a host before it attempts to render an effect to determine if it can simply copy input directly to output without having to call the render action on the effect.

If the effect does not need to process any pixels, it should set the value of the kOfxPropName to the clip that the host should us as the output instead, and the kOfxPropTime property on outArgs to be the time at which the frame should be fetched from a clip.

Return Values

Default Action

The default action is to call the render action on the effect.
