Enum PresentationPath 

pub enum PresentationPath {
    Surface {
        samples: u32,
        with_depth: bool,
    },
    Intermediate(TargetConfig),
}

Available on crate feature winit only.

How a scene reaches the window’s swap chain.

This does not choose the final render destination: both paths present to the window. They differ only in whether the scene first draws into a persistent intermediate texture. Pure offscreen and empty-target rendering use PersistentTarget or an unattached pass directly, without a presenter.

PresentationPath::Surface draws straight into the swap chain. PresentationPath::Intermediate adds a persistent texture and a blit; that texture is readable after present, which makes it suitable for MCP screenshots, post-processing and scaled presentation.

Variants

Surface

Draw the scene straight into the swap chain.

Fields

samples: u32

The sample count the swap-chain frames resolve with.

with_depth: bool

Whether swap-chain frames carry a depth-stencil attachment.

Intermediate(TargetConfig)

Draw the scene into a persistent intermediate texture, then blit it over the swap chain. The texture remains readable after presentation, and its size can scale with the window or stay fixed.
