vertexDescriptor

The description of the vertex data format to be used for loading mesh data from the asset.

Declaration

var vertexDescriptor: MDLVertexDescriptor? { get }

Discussion

If you specify a vertex descriptor when loading an asset with the init(url:vertexDescriptor:bufferAllocator:) initializer, Model I/O automatically translates mesh vertex data loaded from the asset into the format described by that MDLVertexDescriptor object. If you do not specify a vertex descriptor, or import an asset through other means, this property’s value is nil, and Model I/O loads vertex data in whatever format is stored in the asset file.
