GLTRANSLATE(3G) OpenGL Manual GLTRANSLATE(3G)
NAME
glTranslate - 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().
