# VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT - Structure returning information about sample count specific additional multisampling capabilities

## C Specification

The `VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT` structure is defined as

    // Provided by VK_EXT_sample_locations
    typedef struct VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkExtent2D         maxSampleLocationGridSize;
    } VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `maxSampleLocationGridSize` is the maximum size of the pixel grid in which sample locations can vary.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_MULTISAMPLE_PROPERTIES_EXT

- VUID-VkMultisamplePropertiesEXT-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`
