# vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT - Set depth bias factors and clamp dynamically for a command buffer

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To dynamically set the depth bias parameters, call:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_depth_bias_control
    void vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT(
        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
        const VkDepthBiasInfoEXT*                   pDepthBiasInfo);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer into which the command will be recorded.

- `pDepthBiasInfo` is a pointer to a VkDepthBiasInfoEXT structure specifying depth bias parameters.

## Description

This command is functionally identical to vkCmdSetDepthBias, but includes extensible sub-structures that include `sType` and `pNext` parameters, allowing them to be more easily extended.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT-commandBuffer-parameter
  `commandBuffer` must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

- VUID-vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT-pDepthBiasInfo-parameter
  `pDepthBiasInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkDepthBiasInfoEXT structure

- VUID-vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT-commandBuffer-recording
  `commandBuffer` must be in the recording state

- VUID-vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT-commandBuffer-cmdpool
  The `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must support graphics operations

- VUID-vkCmdSetDepthBias2EXT-videocoding
  This command must only be called outside of a video coding scope

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `commandBuffer` must be externally synchronized

- Host access to the `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must be externally synchronized

Command Properties

Command Buffer Levels | Render Pass Scope | Video Coding Scope | Supported Queue Types | Command Type
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
Primary Secondary | Both | Outside | Graphics | State
