XMFLOAT3 structure

Describes a 3D vector consisting of three single-precision floating-point values.

For a list of additional functionality such as constructors and operators that are available using XMFLOAT3 when you are programming in C++, see XMFLOAT3 Extensions.

Note  See DirectXMath Library Type Equivalences for information about equivalent D3DDECLTYPE, D3DFORMAT, and DXGI_FORMAT objects.

Syntax

struct XMFLOAT3 {
  float x;
  float y;
  float z;
};

Members

x

float value describing the x-coordinate of the vector.

y

float value describing the y-coordinate of the vector.

z

float value describing the z-coordinate of the vector.

Remarks

XMFLOAT3 can be loaded into instances of XMVECTOR by using XMLoadFloat3.

Instances of XMVECTOR can be stored into an instance of XMFLOAT3 with XMStoreFloat3.
