ApplicationWindowOptionsKit

class HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit : HPS.Kit 

The ApplicationWindowOptionsKit class is a user space object. It is used to specify application-window-specific options. Calling HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.GetDefault() will return a kit with values found in this table.

Public Functions

ApplicationWindowOptionsKit (): The default constructor creates an empty ApplicationWindowOptionsKit object.

Return:	true if the objects are equivalent, false otherwise.

override bool Equals (Object obj)

override int GetHashCode ()

override HPS.Type ObjectType ()

This function returns the type the object, as declared (if the object is derived, this does not give the true type of the derived object).

Return:	The declared type of the object in question, which may differ from the true, underlying type.

void Set (HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit in_kit)

Copies the source ApplicationWindowOptionsKit into this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

Param in_kit:	The source ApplicationWindowOptionsKit to copy.

HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit SetAntiAliasCapable (bool in_state)

Param in_state:	Whether the associated application window should be anti-alias capable.
Return:	A reference to this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit SetAntiAliasCapable (bool in_state, uint in_samples)

Sets the anti-alias options for this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

Param in_samples:
Param in_state:	Whether the associated application window should be anti-alias capable.
	The number of anti-alias samples to use for the associated application window. Defaults to 4.
Return:	A reference to this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit SetDriver (HPS.Window.Driver in_driver)

Sets the driver for this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

Param in_driver:
	The driver for this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.
Return:	A reference to this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit SetPreferredGPU (HPS.GPU.Preference in_gpu_preference)

Sets which GPU to use when there are multiple available GPUs on a system. This method is only available when using the DirectX11 driver. Other drivers will ignore this request.

<computeroutput>in_gpu_name</computeroutput> needs to be specified when <computeroutput>in_gpu_preference</computeroutput> is set to <computeroutput> GPU.Preference.Specific </computeroutput>. The value passed for <computeroutput>in_gpu_name</computeroutput> needs to match one of those returned by <computeroutput> Database.ShowAvailableGPUs() </computeroutput>. If you select something other than default GPU, and Visualize cannot find a GPU which satisfies the requirement, the default GPU will be used.

All Visualize windows using DirectX11 will use the same GPU. The user should select the preferred GPU before creating a DirectX11 window. The default is for DirectX11 windows to use HighPerformance GPUs. The Microsoft Basic Software Render Driver is always returned as one of the available GPUs by DirectX11. By selecting it (which users can do by calling <computeroutput>SetPreferredGPU(GPU.Preference.Specific, “Microsoft Basic Render Driver”)</computeroutput>), DirectX11 will run in software mode.

Param in_gpu_preference:
	Which GPU to choose. If GPU.Preference.Specific is chosen, the next argument is required.
Return:	A reference to this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.

HPS.ApplicationWindowOptionsKit SetPreferredGPU (HPS.GPU.Preference in_gpu_preference, string in_gpu_name)

Sets which GPU to use when there are multiple available GPUs on a system. This method is only available when using the DirectX11 driver. Other drivers will ignore this request.

<computeroutput>in_gpu_name</computeroutput> needs to be specified when <computeroutput>in_gpu_preference</computeroutput> is set to <computeroutput> GPU.Preference.Specific </computeroutput>. The value passed for <computeroutput>in_gpu_name</computeroutput> needs to match one of those returned by <computeroutput> Database.ShowAvailableGPUs() </computeroutput>. If you select something other than default GPU, and Visualize cannot find a GPU which satisfies the requirement, the default GPU will be used.

All Visualize windows using DirectX11 will use the same GPU. The user should select the preferred GPU before creating a DirectX11 window. The default is for DirectX11 windows to use HighPerformance GPUs. The Microsoft Basic Software Render Driver is always returned as one of the available GPUs by DirectX11. By selecting it (which users can do by calling <computeroutput>SetPreferredGPU(GPU.Preference.Specific, “Microsoft Basic Render Driver”)</computeroutput>), DirectX11 will run in software mode.

Param in_gpu_preference:
	Which GPU to choose. If GPU.Preference.Specific is chosen, the next argument is required.
Param in_gpu_name:
	The name of the specific GPU to use. Required when in_gpu_preference is GPU.Preference.Specific, ignored otherwise.
Return:	A reference to this ApplicationWindowOptionsKit.
