API Notes: Metal framework¶

Apple documentation¶

The full API is described in Apple’s documentation, both the C and Objective-C APIs are available (but see the API Notes below).

These bindings are accessed through the Metal package (that is, import Metal).

Note

This framework is only available on macOS 10.11 and later.

The full API is available from Python.

It is generally safer to use MTLRasterizationRateLayerDescriptor.horizontal instead

It is generally safer to use MTLRasterizationRateLayerDescriptor.vertical instead

The C type contains an anonymous union. In Python the only attribute is elements (list of 3 floats).

This structure is currently not available from python and needs a manual wrapper.
