# VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV - Structure describing shading rate image limits that can be supported by an implementation

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_NV_shading_rate_image
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkExtent2D         shadingRateTexelSize;
        uint32_t           shadingRatePaletteSize;
        uint32_t           shadingRateMaxCoarseSamples;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `shadingRateTexelSize` indicates the width and height of the portion of the framebuffer corresponding to each texel in the shading rate image.

- `shadingRatePaletteSize` indicates the maximum number of palette entries supported for the shading rate image.

- `shadingRateMaxCoarseSamples` specifies the maximum number of coverage samples supported in a single fragment. If the product of the fragment size derived from the base shading rate and the number of coverage samples per pixel exceeds this limit, the final shading rate will be adjusted so that its product does not exceed the limit.

## Description

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2, it is filled in with each corresponding implementation-dependent property.

These properties are related to the shading rate image feature.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceShadingRateImagePropertiesNV-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_SHADING_RATE_IMAGE_PROPERTIES_NV`
