40 Specifies what kind of primitives to render.
42 <constant>GL_POINTS

<constant>GL_LINE_STRIP

<constant>GL_LINE_LOOP
</constant>,
43 <constant>GL_LINES

65 <term><parameter>count

68 Specifies the number of elements to be rendered.
73 <term><parameter>type
</parameter></term>
76 Specifies the type of the values in indices. Must be one of

77 <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT
</constant>, or
<constant>GL_UNSIGNED_INT
</constant>.
82 <term><parameter>indices

93 Specifies a constant that should be added to each element of

94 when chosing elements from the enabled vertex arrays.

</title>
102 <function>glDrawRangeElementsBaseVertex
</function> is a restricted form of
103 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDrawElementsBaseVertex
</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
<parameter>mode
</parameter>,
104 <parameter>start
</parameter>,
<parameter>end
</parameter>,
<parameter>count
</parameter> and
<parameter>basevertex
</parameter> match
105 the corresponding arguments to
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDrawElementsBaseVertex
</refentrytitle></citerefentry>, with the additional
106 constraint that all values in the array
<parameter>indices
</parameter> must lie between
<parameter>start
</parameter> and
<parameter>end
</parameter>,
107 inclusive, prior to adding
<parameter>basevertex
</parameter>. Index values lying outside the range [
<parameter>start
</parameter>,
<parameter>end
</parameter>]
108 are treated in the same way as
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDrawElementsBaseVertex
</refentrytitle></citerefentry>. The
<emphasis>i
</emphasis>th element
109 transferred by the corresponding draw call will be taken from element
<parameter>indices
</parameter>[i] +
<parameter>basevertex
</parameter> of each enabled
110 array. If the resulting value is larger than the maximum value representable by
<parameter>type
</parameter>, it is as if the calculation were upconverted to
111 32-bit unsigned integers (with wrapping on overflow conditions). The operation is undefined if the sum would be negative.
114 <refsect1 id=
"notes"><title>Notes
</title>
115 <function>glDrawRangeElementsBaseVertex
</function> is only supported if the GL version is
3.2 or greater, or if
116 the
<code>ARB_draw_elements_base_vertex
</code> extension is supported.
118 <refsect1 id=
"errors"><title>Errors
</title>
120 <constant>GL_INVALID_ENUM
</constant> is generated if
<parameter>mode
</parameter> is not an accepted value.
123 <constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE
</constant> is generated if
<parameter>count
</parameter> is negative.
126 <constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE
</constant> is generated if
<parameter>end
</parameter> < <parameter>start
</parameter>.
129 <constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION
</constant> is generated if a geometry shader is active and
<parameter>mode
</parameter>
130 is incompatible with the input primitive type of the geometry shader in the currently installed program object.
133 <constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION
</constant> is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to an
134 enabled array or the element array and the buffer object's data store is currently mapped.
