# vkCreateDisplayModeKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkCreateDisplayModeKHR - Create a display mode

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

Additional modes may also be created by calling:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_display
    VkResult vkCreateDisplayModeKHR(
        VkPhysicalDevice                            physicalDevice,
        VkDisplayKHR                                display,
        const VkDisplayModeCreateInfoKHR*           pCreateInfo,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator,
        VkDisplayModeKHR*                           pMode);

## Parameters

- `physicalDevice` is the physical device associated with `display`.

- `display` is the display to create an additional mode for.

- `pCreateInfo` is a pointer to a VkDisplayModeCreateInfoKHR structure describing the new mode to create.

- `pAllocator` is the allocator used for host memory allocated for the display mode object when there is no more specific allocator available (see Memory Allocation).

- `pMode` is a pointer to a VkDisplayModeKHR handle in which the mode created is returned.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkCreateDisplayModeKHR-physicalDevice-parameter
  `physicalDevice` must be a valid VkPhysicalDevice handle

- VUID-vkCreateDisplayModeKHR-display-parameter
  `display` must be a valid VkDisplayKHR handle

- VUID-vkCreateDisplayModeKHR-pCreateInfo-parameter
  `pCreateInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkDisplayModeCreateInfoKHR structure

- VUID-vkCreateDisplayModeKHR-pAllocator-parameter
  If `pAllocator` is not `NULL`, `pAllocator` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkAllocationCallbacks structure

- VUID-vkCreateDisplayModeKHR-pMode-parameter
  `pMode` must be a valid pointer to a VkDisplayModeKHR handle

- VUID-vkCreateDisplayModeKHR-display-parent
  `display` must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from `physicalDevice`

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `display` must be externally synchronized

Return Codes

On success, this command returns

  - `VK_SUCCESS`

On failure, this command returns

  - `VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY`

  - `VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY`

  - `VK_ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED`
