Class NVInheritedViewportScissor


  • public final class NVInheritedViewportScissor
    extends java.lang.Object
    This extension adds the ability for a secondary command buffer to inherit the dynamic viewport and scissor state from a primary command buffer, or a previous secondary command buffer executed within the same CmdExecuteCommands call. It addresses a frequent scenario in applications that deal with window resizing and want to improve utilization of re-usable secondary command buffers. The functionality is provided through VkCommandBufferInheritanceViewportScissorInfoNV. Viewport inheritance is effectively limited to the 2D rectangle; secondary command buffers must re-specify the inherited depth range values.
