Hello,  
I’m doing a little game and I’m using pixel art images so I need to use noSmooth() which doesn’t works in P2D…  
I would like to know if there is another way to use pixel art in P2D.

Sorry about mistakes, I’m french. 🙂

Hi, are you resizing the image when drawing it?

Can we have a working example to help you with?

I think it is due to the resizing. When you work with “pixel art” you don’t want to resize your images because you will end up with blurry lines.

Happy to hear that 🙂

Can you explain what you did in case other people come here to find an answer to a similar project?

Hi,  
I found that this

> `((PGraphicsOpenGL)g).textureSampling(` `3` `);`

instead of noSmooth(); might help? Haven tried it myself.

Can confirm now. It works!

```auto
PImage img;

void setup() {
  size(500, 700, P2D);
  //size(500, 700);
  img = loadImage("key.png");
  //noSmooth();
  ((PGraphicsOpenGL)g).textureSampling( 3 );
}

void draw() {
  background(0);
  image(img, 0, 0, 500, 700);
}

```

^ There is a very small picture to scale up btw.
