OpenGL.GL.NV.framebuffer_multisample_coverage

OpenGL extension NV.framebuffer_multisample_coverage

This module customises the behaviour of the OpenGL.raw.GL.NV.framebuffer_multisample_coverage to provide a more Python-friendly API

Overview (from the spec)

This extension extends the EXT_framebuffer_multisample specification by providing a new function, RenderBufferStorageMultisampleCoverageNV, that distinguishes between color samples and coverage samples.

EXT_framebuffer_multisample introduced the function RenderbufferStorageMultisampleEXT as a method of defining the storage parameters for a multisample render buffer. This function takes a <samples> parameter. Using rules provided by the specification, the <samples> parameter is resolved to an actual number of samples that is supported by the underlying hardware. EXT_framebuffer_multisample does not specify whether <samples> refers to coverage samples or color samples.

This extension adds the function RenderbufferStorageMultisamplCoverageNV, which takes a <coverageSamples> parameter as well as a <colorSamples> parameter. These two parameters give developers more fine grained control over the quality of multisampled images.
