C Specification

To dynamically set the line width, call:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
void vkCmdSetLineWidth(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    float                                       lineWidth);

Parameters

  • commandBuffer is the command buffer into which the command will be recorded.

  • lineWidth is the width of rasterized line segments.

Description

This command sets the line width for subsequent drawing commands when drawing using shader objects, or when the graphics pipeline is created with VK_DYNAMIC_STATE_LINE_WIDTH set in VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pDynamicStates. Otherwise, this state is specified by the VkPipelineRasterizationStateCreateInfo::lineWidth value used to create the currently active pipeline.

Valid Usage
  • VUID-vkCmdSetLineWidth-lineWidth-00788
    If the wideLines feature is not enabled, lineWidth must be 1.0

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkCmdSetLineWidth-commandBuffer-parameter
    commandBuffer must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

  • VUID-vkCmdSetLineWidth-commandBuffer-recording
    commandBuffer must be in the recording state

  • VUID-vkCmdSetLineWidth-commandBuffer-cmdpool
    The VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must support graphics operations

  • VUID-vkCmdSetLineWidth-videocoding
    This command must only be called outside of a video coding scope

Host Synchronization
  • Host access to commandBuffer must be externally synchronized

  • Host access to the VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must be externally synchronized
