In the Previous chapters we have learned how draw a shapes such as
line, triangle, rhombus using JOGL. We draw lines by passing a
predefined field, Gl_lines to glBegin() method.
Other than GL_LINES, the glBegin() method accepts eight more parameters. You can use them to draw different shapes.
These are used the same way as GL_LINES.
The following table shows the glBegin() method parameters along with their description −
Let us see some examples using glBegin() parameters.
Other than GL_LINES, the glBegin() method accepts eight more parameters. You can use them to draw different shapes.
These are used the same way as GL_LINES.
The following table shows the glBegin() method parameters along with their description −
Sr.No | Parameters and Description |
---|---|
1 | GL_LINES Creates each pair of vertices as an independent line segment. |
2 | GL_LINE_STRIP Draws a connected group of line segments from the first vertex to the last. |
3 | GL_LINE_LOOP Draws a connected group of line segments from the first vertex to the last, again back to the first. |
4 | GL_TRIANGLES Treats each triplet of vertices as an independent triangle. |
5 | GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP Draws a connected group of triangles. One triangle is defined for each vertex presented after the first two vertices. |
6 | GL_TRIANGLE_FAN Draws a connected group of triangles. One triangle is defined for each vertex presented after the first two vertices. |
7 | GL_QUADS Treats each group of four vertices as an independent quadrilateral. |
8 | GL_QUAD_STRIP Draws a connected group of quadrilaterals. One quadrilateral is defined for each pair of vertices presented after the first pair. |
9 | GL_POLYGON Draws a single, convex polygon. Vertices 1,…,n define this polygon. |
