Property Value

Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.SwapEffect
Member of the SwapEffect enumerated type that indicates how buffers are swapped.

This property is read/write. 

Remarks

The runtime guarantees the implied semantics concerning buffer swap behavior. So if Windowed is set to true and SwapEffect is set to SwapEffect.Flip, the runtime creates one extra back buffer and copies whichever becomes the front buffer at presentation time.

The SwapEffect.Copy setting requires that BackBufferCount be set to 1. This setting is enforced in the debug runtime, which fills any buffer with noise after it is presented.
