C Specification

If the pNext chain of VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR includes a VkSwapchainDisplayNativeHdrCreateInfoAMD structure, then that structure includes additional swapchain creation parameters specific to display native HDR support.

The VkSwapchainDisplayNativeHdrCreateInfoAMD structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_AMD_display_native_hdr
typedef struct VkSwapchainDisplayNativeHdrCreateInfoAMD {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    const void*        pNext;
    VkBool32           localDimmingEnable;
} VkSwapchainDisplayNativeHdrCreateInfoAMD;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

  • localDimmingEnable specifies whether local dimming is enabled for the swapchain.

Description

If the pNext chain of VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR does not include this structure, the default value for localDimmingEnable is VK_TRUE, meaning local dimming is initially enabled for the swapchain.
