GLTRANSLATE(3G) 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 )
delim $$
PARAMETERS
w'x y z  'u 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:
 
left ( ~ down 20 matrix { ccol { 1~~ above 0~~ above 0~~ above 0~~ } ccol { 0~~ above 1~~ above 0~~ above 0~~ } ccol { 0~~ above 0~~ above 1~~ above 0~~ } ccol { "x"~ above "y"~ above "z"~ above 1} } ~~right )
 
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.
