Hi all,

can someone clarify the following question:

Is it possible to have one back buffer for several swap chains on a single DX11 device?

The idea is to minimize a number of "CopySubresourceRegion" calls while representing a scene in several windows (each window displays a part of a scene).

Every swap chain has its own backbuffer, there's no way to share backbuffers between multiple swap chains.
