Abstract
A graphics processing circuit includes a buffer, a first vertex shader, and a second vertex shader. The first vertex shader generates at least coordinate values of a plurality of vertices to the buffer. The second vertex shader reads at least a portion of buffered coordinate values from the buffer, and reuses at least the portion of the buffered coordinate values to generate a value of at least one user-defined variable.
