Is there a metro supported equivalent to the Escape and ExtEscape calls?

Answer 2

I am also curious if there is something like D3DKMTEscape:

If not, how are metro apps supposed to access display driver functionality not supported by existing WinRT or supported Win32 calls?

Answer 3

Your other option is Direct X.

Answer 4

Can you elaborate on this?  How can I access display driver functionality not exposed by the DirectX APIs?
