("pstats-unused-states", false,

// Warning!  The code that uses this is currently experimental and
// incomplete, and will almost certainly crash!  Do not set
// threading-model to anything other than its default of a
// single-threaded model unless you are developing Panda's threading
// system!
ConfigVariableString threading_model
("threading-model", "",
 PRC_DESC("This is the default threading model to use for new windows.  Use "
          "empty string for single-threaded, or something like \"cull/draw\" for "
          "a 3-stage pipeline.  See GraphicsEngine::set_threading_model(). "
          "EXPERIMENTAL and incomplete, do not use this!"));

ConfigVariableBool auto_flip
("auto-flip", true,
 PRC_DESC("This indicates the initial setting of the auto-flip flag.  Set it "
          "true (the default) to cause render_frame() to flip all the windows "
          "before it returns (in single-threaded mode only), or false to wait "
          "until an explicit call to flip_frame() or the next render_frame()."));

("yield-timeslice", false,

          "more polite to other applications that are trying to run."));

("show-buffers", false,
 PRC_DESC("Set this true to cause offscreen GraphicsBuffers to be created as "
          "GraphicsWindows, if possible, so that their contents may be viewed "
          "interactively.  Handy during development of multipass algorithms."));

ConfigVariableBool prefer_parasite_buffer
("prefer-parasite-buffer", true,
 PRC_DESC("Set this true to make GraphicsOutput::make_render_texture() try to "
          "create a parasite buffer before it tries to create an offscreen "
          "buffer.  This may be desired if you know your graphics API does not "
          "support render-directly-to-texture and you want to minimize "
          "framebuffer memory."));

("prefer-single-buffer", true,
 PRC_DESC("Set this true to make GraphicsOutput::make_render_texture() first "

          "back to a double-buffered one (or whatever kind the source window "
          "has).  This is true by default to reduce waste of framebuffer "
          "memory, but you may get a performance benefit by setting it to "
          "false (since in that case the buffer can share a graphics context "
          "with the window)."));


ConfigVariableBool copy_texture_inverted
("copy-texture-inverted", false,
 PRC_DESC("Set this true to indicate that the GSG in use will invert textures when "
          "it performs a framebuffer-to-texture copy operation, or false to indicate "
          "that it does the right thing.  If this is not set, the default behavior is "
          "determined by the GSG's internal logic."));

ConfigVariableBool window_inverted
("window-inverted", false,
 PRC_DESC("Set this true to create all windows with the inverted flag set, so that "
          "they will render upside-down and backwards.  Normally this is useful only "
          "for debugging."));
