swift - Blend Mode in Metal

Question

These are the two the blend-mode i used in OpenGL what is the conversion to the metal in IOS

glEnable(GL_BLEND);

glBlendFuncSeparate(GL_SRC_ALPHA,GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA,GL_ONE,GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);

glBlendFuncSeparate(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE, GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE);

Answer 1

You configure blending on your render pipeline descriptor. I believe the equivalent configurations for your GL code are:

// glEnable(GL_BLEND)
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].isBlendingEnabled = true

// glBlendFuncSeparate(GL_SRC_ALPHA,GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA,GL_ONE,GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA)
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].sourceRGBBlendFactor = .sourceAlpha
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].destinationRGBBlendFactor = .oneMinusSourceAlpha
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].sourceAlphaBlendFactor = .one
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].destinationAlphaBlendFactor = .oneMinusSourceAlpha

// glBlendFuncSeparate(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE, GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE)
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].sourceRGBBlendFactor = .sourceAlpha
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].destinationRGBBlendFactor = .one
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].sourceAlphaBlendFactor = .sourceAlpha
renderPipelineDescriptor.colorAttachments[0].destinationAlphaBlendFactor = .one
