Abstract
Examples described herein generally relate to drawing digital ink on a display of a computer device. The computer device may render a frame via a graphics queue of a graphics processing unit (GPU). The computer device may fetch updated digital ink input from an input buffer at a designated time before scanning at least a portion of the frame including the digital ink. The computer device may draw the digital ink on the rendered frame via a priority queue of the GPU based on the updated digital ink input prior to displaying at least a portion of the frame including the digital ink. The priority queue may provide commands to dispatch a compute shader of the GPU to draw the digital ink.
