Description

[edit | edit source]

Visual effect

[edit | edit source]
  • changes the color of the next objects to be drawn

Usage Context

[edit | edit source]
  • Will work anywhere in Display loop but normally used between glBegin and glEnd.
  • Affects everything following until it is called again or the loop starts over.
  • glEnd(); and glBegin(); do not affect it.

Usage Examples

[edit | edit source]
  • draws 7 points and 3 different colors
  • starting from x center y .5+ and moving to x .6+ y .5+
  • shows that the color will stay even if you restart a new gl section
  • shows that the color will stay even if the loop starts over
  • replace the display function with this in the basic testing app program to see the results
void display(void)
{
	glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
	glBegin(GL_POINTS);
		glVertex3f(0.0,0.5,0.0);//drawn white or default color first loop and green all other loops
		glColor3f(1.0,0.5,0.0);//set red 100% green 50% blue 0%
		glVertex3f(0.1,0.5,0.0);//drawn orange
		glVertex3f(0.2,0.5,0.0);//drawn orange
		glColor3f(1.0,0.0,0.0);//set red 100% green 0% blue 0%
		glVertex3f(0.3,0.5,0.0);//drawn red
	glEnd();
	glBegin(GL_POINTS);
		glVertex3f(0.4,0.5,0.0);//drawn red
		glColor3f(0.0,1.0,0.0);//set red 0% green 100% blue 0%
		glVertex3f(0.5,0.5,0.0);//drawn green
		glVertex3f(0.6,0.5,0.0);//drawn green
	glEnd();
	glutSwapBuffers();
}
