Parts

object

Object expression that resolves to a D3DX8 object.

D3DDevice

Direct3DDevice8 object, to be associated with the render surface.

Width

Width of the render surface, in pixels

Height

Height of the render surface, in pixels

Format

Member of the CONST_D3DFORMAT enumeration, describing the format of the render target.

DepthStencil

If 1, the render surface supports a depth-stencil surface. Otherwise this member is set to 0.

DepthStencilFormat

If DepthStencil is set to 1, this parameter is a member of the CONST_D3DFORMAT enumeration describing the depth-stencil format of the render surface.

Return Values

D3DXRenderToSurface object, representing the created polygon mesh.

Error Codes

If the method fails, an error is raised and Err.Number can be set to one of the following values.

For information on trapping errors, see the Microsoft® Visual Basic® Error Handling topic.

Remarks

The created polygon is centered at the origin.
