C Specification
Applications that wish to present directly to a display must select which layer, or “plane” of the display they wish to target, and a mode to use with the display. Each display supports at least one plane. The capabilities of a given mode and plane combination are determined by calling:
// Provided by VK_KHR_display
VkResult vkGetDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR(
VkPhysicalDevice physicalDevice,
VkDisplayModeKHR mode,
uint32_t planeIndex,
VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR* pCapabilities);
Parameters
-
physicalDeviceis the physical device associated with the display specified bymode -
modeis the display mode the application intends to program when using the specified plane. Note this parameter also implicitly specifies a display. -
planeIndexis the plane which the application intends to use with the display, and is less than the number of display planes supported by the device. -
pCapabilitiesis a pointer to a VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR structure in which the capabilities are returned.
