NAME
       glPolygonOffset - set the scale and units used to calculate depth values

C SPECIFICATION
       void glPolygonOffset(GLfloat factor, GLfloat units);

PARAMETERS
       factor
	   Specifies a scale factor that is used to create a variable depth offset for each polygon. The initial value is 0.

       units
	   Is multiplied by an implementation-specific value to create a constant depth offset. The initial value is 0.

DESCRIPTION
       When GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILL, GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_LINE, or GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_POINT is enabled, each fragment's depth value will be offset
       after it is interpolated from the depth values of the appropriate vertices. The value of the offset is factor x DZ + r x units, where DZ is
       a measurement of the change in depth relative to the screen area of the polygon, and r is the smallest value that is guaranteed to produce
       a resolvable offset for a given implementation. The offset is added before the depth test is performed and before the value is written into
       the depth buffer.

       glPolygonOffset is useful for rendering hidden-line images, for applying decals to surfaces, and for rendering solids with highlighted
       edges.
