pygame2.sdlext.constants – Constants for the SDL extensions

This module contains the constants used throughout the pygame2.sdlext modules.

Filter Constants

Those constants denote the available filter types for the pygame2.sdlext.transform.smoothscale() function, which can be set and get using pygame2.sdlext.transform.get_filtertype() and pygame2.sdlext.transform.set_filtertype().

pygame2.sdlext.constants.FILTER_C
Use the plain C-language based filter. This is possibly the slowest of all filter types, but guaranteed to work on any platform.
pygame2.sdlext.constants.FILTER_MMX
Use the MMX-based filter. This uses the Intel MMX instruction set to perform a fast filter operation. It is only available on Intel and AMD platforms.
pygame2.sdlext.constants.FILTER_SSE
Use the SSE-based filter. This uses the Intel SSE instruction set to perform a fast filter operation. It is only available on newer Intel and AMD platforms (Pentium III and above).
