Description

This sample demonstrates the bare-bones basics of using a Vulkan command buffer, vertex buffers, etc to render.

APIs Used

Vulkan 1.0

Shared User Interface

The Graphics samples all share a common app framework and certain user interface elements, centered around the "Tweakbar" panel on the left side of the screen which lets you interactively control certain variables in each sample.

To show and hide the Tweakbar, simply click or touch the triangular button positioned in the top-left of the view.

Other controls are listed below.

Device	Input	Result
keyboard	Esc	Quit the application
	Tab	Toggle TweakBar visibility
gamepad	Start	Toggle TweakBar visibility
	A	Show TweakBar, Toggle Focused Item
	B	Close Focused UI, Hide TweakBar
	DPAD Up/Down	Move Focus to Prev/Next Item
	DPAD Left/Right	Decrease/Increase Focused Item

Technical Details

This sample shows the most basic rendering in Vulkan. The sample specifically avoids any DescriptorSets; it only uses vertex attributes. For examples of using vertices along with DescriptorSets, see the sample ModelTestVk.
