ID2D1DeviceContext::IsDxgiFormatSupported method

Indicates whether the format is supported by the device context. The formats supported are usually determined by the underlying hardware.

Syntax

BOOL IsDxgiFormatSupported(
   format DXGI_FORMAT
);

Parameters

DXGI_FORMAT

Type: format

The DXGI format to check.

Return value

Type: BOOL

Returns TRUE if the format is supported. Returns FALSE if the format is not supported.

Remarks

You can use supported formats in the D2D1_PIXEL_FORMAT structure to create bitmaps and render targets. Direct2D doesn't support all DXGI formats, even though they may have some level of Direct3D support by the hardware.
