## Name

VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD - Structure defining rasterization order for a graphics pipeline

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The rasterization order to use for a graphics pipeline is specified by adding a `VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD` structure to the `pNext` chain of a VkPipelineRasterizationStateCreateInfo structure.

The `VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_AMD_rasterization_order
    typedef struct VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD {
        VkStructureType            sType;
        const void*                pNext;
        VkRasterizationOrderAMD    rasterizationOrder;
    } VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD;

## Members

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

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

- `rasterizationOrder` is a VkRasterizationOrderAMD value specifying the primitive rasterization order to use.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PIPELINE_RASTERIZATION_STATE_RASTERIZATION_ORDER_AMD`

- VUID-VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD-rasterizationOrder-parameter
  `rasterizationOrder` must be a valid VkRasterizationOrderAMD value

If the `VK_AMD_rasterization_order` device extension is not enabled or the application does not request a particular rasterization order through specifying a `VkPipelineRasterizationStateRasterizationOrderAMD` structure then the rasterization order used by the graphics pipeline defaults to `VK_RASTERIZATION_ORDER_STRICT_AMD`.
