IDXGIOutput2::SupportsOverlays method (dxgi1_3.h)
Queries an adapter output for multiplane overlay support. If this API returns ‘TRUE’, multiple swap chain composition takes place in a performant manner using overlay hardware. If this API returns false, apps should avoid using foreground swap chains (that is, avoid using swap chains created with the DXGI_SWAP_CHAIN_FLAG_FOREGROUND_LAYER flag).
Syntax
BOOL SupportsOverlays();
Return value
TRUE if the output adapter is the primary adapter and it supports multiplane overlays, otherwise returns FALSE.
Remarks
See CreateSwapChainForCoreWindow for info on creating a foreground swap chain.
