It's much to look at but I'm pleased to see it. I know nico has a resize plugin [I'm using some of his source to piece together a plugin from a stand alone dx11 engine tutorial.
I got side tracked hooking the sliders up to variables like get_beat & get_beatgrid.
making the image bounce around, there's probably a plugin or 2 doing this sort of thing.
So if you've got any ideas, speak up.

You should download by using NuGet packages in Visual Studio 2022:
"directxtk_desktop_win10" or "directxtex_desktop_win10"

one of the first steps in the tutorials I'm following was build DirectXTK

I CAN HAZ CAT!,
this won't mean anything to most people, but I hit a target, a personal goal. I rendered a cat. [out of proportion and oversized for his origin 100*100 pxl.] And now I've put a cat picture on the internet.

Thanks the pipeline helps.
It really is "from device you can create thing", "then from thing you can create other thing".
it all seems laboured that I need to do and keep track of all the in-between but then the topic is a way bigger than the stupid stuff I'm doing.
so I'm out of my depth quickly

I think my understanding is hampered as I keep applying analog CRT thinking, [because really it is just lines of pixels in my head] I suppose it is the same, just but with many many electron guns.

so I have cat.png with alpha as a source
and I've got this far [with help] [cat renders over deck shader]

looking at adjustable alpha

*edit*
As I was typing I decided to take a stab at an idea,

probably a stupid way to do it [the code had provision to deal with user adjust alpha some where] but it works, just nobody tell the code police, it'll be fine

I've size, moving, scaling down now, but having some troubles with some image dimensions,
pulling png is reliable except one file gives me negative numbers [pic renders correctly in vdj, and checked the header it really is a png] and the data at 16 & 20 really is negative

then there's jpg I've tried about 3 no library methods but there's always one file [always different for different methods] that doesn't right.
Is there a small library you could recommend?

never mind, I put 2 & 2 together

D3D11_TEXTURE2D_DESC, will give me real dimensions
