# D3D12_VERTEX_BUFFER_VIEW

> Describes a vertex buffer view.

Describes a vertex buffer view.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
typedef struct D3D12_VERTEX_BUFFER_VIEW
{
    D3D12_GPU_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS BufferLocation;
    UINT SizeInBytes;
    UINT StrideInBytes;
} D3D12_VERTEX_BUFFER_VIEW
```

### Members

*BufferLocation*\
Type: D3D12\_GPU\_VIRTUAL\_ADDRESS

Specifies a D3D12\_GPU\_VIRTUAL\_ADDRESS that identifies the address of the buffer.

*SizeInBytes*\
Type: UINT

Specifies the size in bytes of the buffer.

*StrideInBytes*\
Type: UINT

Specifies the size in bytes of each vertex entry.
