gluPickMatrix

[Nathan Carter]

Hello group!

I notice that project.c in the iGLU distribution contains gluPickMatrix
(), but I wonder if this is there because it's useful or there because
it's there. Specifically: I can't seem to find picking support
elsewhere in OpenGL|ES. E.g., I can't glPushName().

Has anyone succeeded in doing picking on OpenGL|ES, or perhaps can the
person who put gluPickMatrix() in iGLU let me know if it was done on
purpose? :) Thank you very much!

Nathan

Hi Nathan,

gluPickMatrix is in iGLU because it's part of Mesa GLU and can be
compiled against OpenGL ES. I don't know whether it's actually useful
for anything.

Cheers,
Chris

Thank you! I therefore conclude it isn't, because OpenGL|ES doesn't
seem to have the functionality for even setting up pick names. Thanks
again!
