Velaptor.UI​

IWindow Interface​

Provides the core of an application window which facilitates how the
window behaves, its state and the ability to be used in various types
of applications.

public interface IWindow :
System.IDisposable

Derived
↳ Window

Implements System.IDisposable

Properties​

AutoClearBuffer​

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the buffers should
be automatically cleared before rendering any textures.

bool AutoClearBuffer { get; set; }

Property Value​

System.Boolean

Remarks​

If this is set to true, it means you do not have to
use or invoke the Clear()() method.

Set to the value of false if you want more control when
the back buffers will be cleared.

WARNING!! - To prevent performance issues, do not manually clear the
buffer with the Clear()() method
and set this property to true. That would be a waste of resources.
