53<H2>Description</H2>
54<P>This function returns the attribute format (<CODE><STRONG><EM>attr</EM></STRONG></CODE>) of an attribute in the vertex attribute format table (VAT). Each attribute format describes the data type (<code><em><strong>type</strong></em></code>), number of elements (<code><em><strong>cnt</strong></em></code>), and, if necessary, a fixed point format (<code><em><strong>frac</strong></em></code>). The VAT can use eight vertex formats. The vertex format describes the format of all attributes in a vertex.&nbsp;Use <A href="GXSetVtxAttrFmt.html"><CODE>GXSetVtxAttrFmt</CODE></A> to describe an attribute format.</P>
