IDXGISwapChain1::IsTemporaryMonoSupported method (dxgi1_2.h)

Determines whether a swap chain supports “temporary mono.”

Syntax

BOOL IsTemporaryMonoSupported();

Return value

Indicates whether to use the swap chain in temporary mono mode. TRUE indicates that you can use temporary-mono mode; otherwise, FALSE.

Platform Update for Windows 7:  On Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 with the Platform Update for Windows 7 installed, IsTemporaryMonoSupported always returns FALSE because stereoscopic 3D display behavior isn’t available with the Platform Update for Windows 7. For more info about the Platform Update for Windows 7, see Platform Update for Windows 7.

Remarks

Temporary mono is a feature where a stereo swap chain can be presented using only the content in the left buffer. To present using the left buffer as a mono buffer, an application calls the IDXGISwapChain1::Present1 method with the DXGI_PRESENT_STEREO_TEMPORARY_MONO flag. All windowed swap chains support temporary mono. However, full-screen swap chains optionally support temporary mono because not all hardware supports temporary mono on full-screen swap chains efficiently.
