Instance Method

setDepthClipMode(_:)

Controls what is done with fragments outside of the near or far planes.

Required.

Declaration

func setDepthClipMode(_ depthClipMode: MTLDepthClipMode)

Parameters

depthClipMode: The mode that determines how to handle fragments outside of the near or far planes.

Discussion

Use depth clipping to ignore fragments outside the z-axis boundaries of a viewing volume. Depth clipping is supported on all macOS GPU families and iOS family 4 and later.

The default value is MTLDepthClipMode.clip.
