## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT - Structure describing whether slice-based views of 3D images can be used in storage image descriptors

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_image_sliced_view_of_3d
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           imageSlicedViewOf3D;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT;

## Members

The members of the `VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT` structure describe the following features:

## Description

- `imageSlicedViewOf3D` indicates that the implementation supports using a sliced view of a 3D image in a descriptor of type VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_IMAGE by using a VkImageViewSlicedCreateInfoEXT structure when creating the view.

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by `VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT`, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceImageSlicedViewOf3DFeaturesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_IMAGE_SLICED_VIEW_OF_3D_FEATURES_EXT
