Minimum Shader Model
This function is supported in the following shader models.
| Shader Model | Supported |
|---|---|
| Shader Model 4 | yes (pixel shader only) |
| Shader Model 3 (DirectX HLSL) | yes (pixel shader only) |
| Shader Model 2 (DirectX HLSL) | yes (pixel shader only) |
| Shader Model 1 (DirectX HLSL) | no |
- Significant code reordering is done to move gradient computations outside of flow control.
- If the D3DPSHADERCAPS2_0 cap is set with D3DD3DPSHADERCAPS2_0_GRADIENTINSTRUCTIONS, the compiler maps this function to texldd.
Remarks
When flow control is present in a shader, the result of a gradient calculation requested inside a given branch path is ambiguous when adjacent pixels may go down separate flow control paths. Therefore, it is deemed illegal to use any pixel shader operation that requests a gradient calculation to occur at a location that is inside a flow control construct which could vary across pixels for a given primitive being rasterized. If either side of an if statement with the branch attribute uses a gradient function a compiler error may be generated. See if Statement (DirectX HLSL).
