C Specification

Possible values of VkSurfaceFullScreenExclusiveInfoEXT::fullScreenExclusive are:

// Provided by VK_EXT_full_screen_exclusive
typedef enum VkFullScreenExclusiveEXT {
    VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_DEFAULT_EXT = 0,
    VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_ALLOWED_EXT = 1,
    VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_DISALLOWED_EXT = 2,
    VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_APPLICATION_CONTROLLED_EXT = 3,
} VkFullScreenExclusiveEXT;

Description

  • VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_DEFAULT_EXT indicates the implementation should determine the appropriate full-screen method by whatever means it deems appropriate.

  • VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_ALLOWED_EXT indicates the implementation may use full-screen exclusive mechanisms when available. Such mechanisms may result in better performance and/or the availability of different presentation capabilities, but may require a more disruptive transition during swapchain initialization, first presentation and/or destruction.

  • VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_DISALLOWED_EXT indicates the implementation should avoid using full-screen mechanisms which rely on disruptive transitions.

  • VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_APPLICATION_CONTROLLED_EXT indicates the application will manage full-screen exclusive mode by using the vkAcquireFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT and vkReleaseFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT commands.
