How to read two PNG file and convert them to SharedImageSet? (SDK)

ImFusion Suite

What is the correct way to read PNG files and convert them to SharedImageSet?

Currently I’m using PngIO::readImage save it to a MemImage then converting it to TypedImage then convert to SharedImages and then finally put it into a SharedImageSet. Then when I try to visualize the SharedImageSet I get two grey blanks. Is there a more straight forward and correct way to read PNG files?

For context I’m working with ImFusion SDK 3.2

You can create the SharedImageSet directly from the MemImage:

std::unique_ptr<MemImage> mem = PngIO::readImage(path);
SharedImageSet sis(std::move(mem));

or even

SharedImageSet sis(PngIO::readImage(path));

Alternatively you can use the FileLoader class that can load all kinds of files:

FileLoader loader;
auto result = loader.load(path);
if (result)
    std::unique_ptr<SharedImageSet> image = result->extractFirstImage();
