Description

opened on Apr 15, 2026

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run Impeller with vulkan backend through embedder
  2. Resize the window (easiest on desktop)

Expected results

Impeller should recreate Vulkan swapchain transients when the surface size changes

Actual results

Incorrectly formed Vulkan framebuffers/render targets due to transients not being recreated on resize

Code sample

Code sample

no sample, custom embedder
