GLdouble righ )
PARAMETERS
left, righ Specify the coordinates for the left and right vertical clip‐
ping planes.
_param3, _param4
Specify the coordinates for the bottom and top horizontal
clipping planes.
_param5, _param6
Specify the distances to the nearer and farther depth clip‐
ping planes. These values are negative if the plane is to be
behind the viewer.
DESCRIPTION
glOrtho describes a transformation that produces a parallel projection.
The current matrix (see glMatrixMode) is multiplied by this matrix and
the result replaces the current matrix, as if glMultMatrix were called
with the following matrix as its argument:
_________ 0 0 tx
⎝ 0 _____________________ 0 ty⎠
0 0 _____________________ tz
0 0 0 1
where
tx=−_________
ty=−_____________________
tz=−_____________________
Typically, the matrix mode is GL_PROJECTION, and (left, _param3,
-_param5) and (righ, _param4, -_param5) specify the points on the near
clipping plane that are mapped to the lower left and upper right corners
of the window, respectively, assuming that the eye is located at (0, 0,
0). -_param6 specifies the location of the far clipping plane. Both
_param5 and _param6 can be either positive or negative.
Use glPushMatrix and glPopMatrix to save and restore the current matrix
stack.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glOrtho is executed between the ex‐
ecution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
