Unable to render images with sixel protocol & ratatui-image

[orhun]

I tried the image rendering out from the main branch using ratatui-image's demo (cargo run --example demo --features crossterm):

Meanwhile in wezterm:

How can I debug this? 🤔

[raphamorim]

actually i get same result with wezterm

[raphamorim]

can you try again @orhun ?

[orhun]

Pulled from latest main and unfortunately it's still the same for me.

Will try to reproduce on my arch

[orhun]

Cool, let me know if you need any additional info

[raphamorim]

It’s working for me on arch

Ok figured out through this discussion, https://discourse.iced.rs/t/images-arent-properly-loading/84/10 and this PR iced-rs/iced#2259

"So, it turns out that wgpu has to use heuristics to guess that the texture we are creating will be used as TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY rather than TEXTURE_2D, and OpenGL needs to know that ahead of time, otherwise it will refuse to bind it because of type mismatch.

The real fix should be on wgpu side, but that seems to be known and not obvious problem.
So in the meantime, I just increased default layers allocation in the atlas to 2. That way wgpu will see layer depth 2 and correctly assume that we want to use this texture as TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY"

(basically worked for me because i am using vulkan)

pushed a commit to fix it based on iced PR. closing this issue for now lemme know anything

Thanks for your work on this!
