GraphicsDeviceCapabilities.RasterCaps.SupportsDepthBufferLessHsr Property

  • Article

Gets a value indicating whether the device can perform hidden-surface removal (HSR) without requiring the application to sort polygons and without requiring the allocation of a depth buffer.

Namespace: Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics
Assembly: Microsoft.Xna.Framework (in microsoft.xna.framework.dll)

Syntax

public bool SupportsDepthBufferLessHsr { get; }

Property Value

true if the device can perform hidden-surface removal (HSR) without requiring the application to sort polygons and without requiring the allocation of a depth buffer; false otherwise.

Remarks

This leaves more video memory for textures. The method used to perform HSR is hardware-dependent and is transparent to the application.

Z-bufferless HSR is performed if no depth-buffer surface is associated with the rendering-target surface and the depth-buffer comparison test is enabled (that is, when the state value associated with the DepthBufferEnable is true).
