SDL_GPUCullMode(3type)

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_GPUCullMode — bestie, this is the enum that says which way a triangle has to be facing for it to get culled. Like, straight up deleted from the render. It specifies the facing direction in which triangle faces will be culled. 💅

(also hi, this is a SDL3 DATATYPES page, iykyk 🦋)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_gpu.h>

typedef enum SDL_GPUCullMode
{
    SDL_GPU_CULLMODE_NONE,   /**< No triangles are culled. */
    SDL_GPU_CULLMODE_FRONT,  /**< Front-facing triangles are culled. */
    SDL_GPU_CULLMODE_BACK    /**< Back-facing triangles are culled. */
} SDL_GPUCullMode;

okay so three options, that's the whole menu, no hidden items, no secret combo 🎀

• SDL_GPU_CULLMODE_NONE — literally nobody gets culled. every triangle lives. main character energy for all of them ✨
• SDL_GPU_CULLMODE_FRONT — front-facing triangles are the ones getting culled. bye bestie 🫶
• SDL_GPU_CULLMODE_BACK — back-facing triangles are the ones getting culled. not me deleting the ones facing away 😭

---

💖 AVAILABILITY 💖

this enum has been around since SDL 3.2.0, so it's not new new, it's just been quietly serving 👑

---

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

• SDL_CreateGPUGraphicsPipeline(3) — the way that this is where you'd actually go to use your cull mode, periodt

k that's the whole page bestie, go slay your render pipeline 💅✨

this came to you from the Simple Directmedia Layer girlies, SDL 3.4.18 edition, and it's the SDL_GPUCullMode(3type) era — mwah, love u, bye 🎀🦋💜
