GraphicsDevice.DrawIndexedPrimitives Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Renders the specified geometric primitive, based on indexing into an array of vertices.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics
Assembly:  Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics (in Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Sub DrawIndexedPrimitives ( _
    primitiveType As PrimitiveType, _
    baseVertex As Integer, _
    minVertexIndex As Integer, _
    numVertices As Integer, _
    startIndex As Integer, _
    primitiveCount As Integer _
)

public abstract void DrawIndexedPrimitives(
    PrimitiveType primitiveType,
    int baseVertex,
    int minVertexIndex,
    int numVertices,
    int startIndex,
    int primitiveCount
)

Parameters

  • baseVertex
    Type: System.Int32
    Offset to add to each vertex index in the index buffer.
  • minVertexIndex
    Type: System.Int32
    Minimum vertex index for vertices used during the call. The minVertexIndex parameter and all of the indices in the index stream are relative to the baseVertex parameter.
  • numVertices
    Type: System.Int32
    Number of vertices used during the call. The first vertex is located at index: baseVertex + minVertexIndex.
  • startIndex
    Type: System.Int32
    Location in the index array at which to start reading vertices.
  • primitiveCount
    Type: System.Int32
    Number of primitives to render. The number of vertices used is a function of primitiveCount and primitiveType.
