Devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces are used for generating, updating, and/or presenting three-dimensional landscapes in a computer-generated environment. In some examples, an electronic device presents a three-dimensional environment. In some examples, while presenting the three-dimensional environment, the electronic device receives, via one or more input devices, a request to add one or more first two-dimensional objects to the three-dimensional environment. In some examples, in response to receiving the one or more first inputs, the electronic updates an appearance of the three-dimensional environment based on the one or more first two-dimensional objects added to the three-dimensional environment.

Devices and methods for generating and/or presenting three-dimensional landscapes

Systems, methods, and computer readable media to data drive a render graph are described. A render graph system defines one or more nodes for a render graph and one or more render targets associated with the nodes. The nodes includes one or more functions to define and resolve target handles for identifying render targets. The render graph system defines one or more connections between the nodes and render targets. The connection between the nodes and render targets form the render graph. The render graph system stores the render graph as a data file and converts, with a render graphics API, the data file into a render graph data object. The render graph system performs a frame setup phase the setups the render graph for a frame based on the render graph data object.
