glTranslate(3G) OpenGL Reference glTranslate(3G)NAME
glTranslated, glTranslatef - multiply the current matrix by a translation
matrix
C SPECIFICATION
void glTranslated( GLdouble x,
GLdouble y,
GLdouble z )
void glTranslatef( GLfloat x,
GLfloat y,
GLfloat z )
PARAMETERS
x, y, z
Specify the x, y, and z coordinates of a translation vector.
DESCRIPTION
glTranslate produces a translation by (x,y,z). The current matrix (see
glMatrixMode) is multiplied by this translation matrix, with the product
replacing the current matrix, as if glMultMatrix were called with the
following matrix for its argument:
( )
1 0 0 x
| |
| 0 1 0 y |
| |
0 0 1 z
| |
( 0 0 0 1 )
If the matrix mode is either GL_MODELVIEW or GL_PROJECTION, all objects
drawn after a call to glTranslate are translated.
Use glPushMatrix and glPopMatrix to save and restore the untranslated
coordinate system.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glTranslate is executed between the
execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
