Function
Synopsis
pixeleffect = love.graphics.newPixelEffect( code )
Arguments
string code- The pixel effect code.
Returns
PixelEffect pixeleffect- A PixelEffect object for use in drawing operations.

Pixel effects are not programmed in Lua, but by using a special effect language instead. The effect language is basically GLSL 1.20 (specs) with a few aliases added for existing types:
| GLSL | Effect language |
|---|---|
| float | number |
| sampler2D | Image |
| uniform | extern |
| texture2D(tex, uv) | Texel(tex, uv) |
Effect Function
Synopsis
vec4 effect( vec4 color, Image texture, vec2 texture_coords, vec2 screen_coords )
Arguments
vec4 color- The drawing color set with love.graphics.setColor.
Image texture- The texture of the image or canvas being drawn.
vec2 texture_coords- Coordinates of the pixel relative to the texture. The y-axis of canvases are inverted. Coordinates (1,1) would be the top right corner of the canvas.
vec2 screen_coords- Coordinates of the pixel on the screen. Pixel coordinates are not normalized (unlike texture coordinates). (0.5, 0.5) is the bottom left of the screen.
Returns
vec4 output_color- The color of the pixel.
