# Objective
#19410 added support for resizing images "in place" meaning that their
data was copied into the new texture allocation on the CPU. However,
there are some scenarios where an image may be created and populated
entirely on the GPU. Using this method would cause data to disappear, as
it wouldn't be copied into the new texture.
## Solution
When an image is resized in place, if it has no data in it's asset,
we'll opt into a new flag `copy_on_resize` which will issue a
`copy_texture_to_texture` command on the old allocation.
To support this, we require passing the old asset to all `RenderAsset`
implementations. This will be generally useful in the future for
reducing things like buffer re-allocations.
## Testing
Tested using the example in the issue.
