SampleBias::SampleBias(S,float,float,float) function for TextureCube

  • Article

Samples a texture, after applying the bias value to the mipmap level, with an optional value to clamp sample level-of-detail (LOD) values to.

Syntax

DXGI_FORMAT SampleBias(
  in SamplerState S,
  in float        Location,
  in float        Bias,
  in float        Clamp
);

Parameters

S [in]

Type: SamplerState

A Sampler state. This is an object declared in an effect file that contains state assignments.

Location [in]

Type: float

The texture coordinates. The argument type is dependent on the texture-object type.

Texture-Object Type Parameter Type
Texture1D float
Texture1DArray, Texture2D float2
Texture2DArray, Texture3D, TextureCube float3
TextureCubeArray float4

 

Bias [in]

Type: float

The bias value, which is a floating-point number between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive, is applied to a mip level before sampling.

Clamp [in]

Type: float

An optional value to clamp sample LOD values to. For example, if you pass 2.0f for the clamp value, you ensure that no individual sample accesses a mip level less than 2.0f.

Return value

Type: DXGI_FORMAT

The texture format, which is one of the typed values listed in DXGI_FORMAT.
