| 11 | <code class="function">gluPickMatrix</code> creates a projection matrix that can be used to restrict drawing |
| 12 | to a small region of the viewport. |
| 13 | This is typically useful to |
| 14 | determine what objects are being drawn near the cursor. |
| 15 | Use <code class="function">gluPickMatrix</code> to |
| 16 | restrict drawing to a small region around the cursor. |
| 17 | Then, |
| 18 | enter selection mode (with <a class="citerefentry" href="glRenderMode.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glRenderMode</span></span></a>) and rerender the scene. |
| 19 | All primitives that would have been drawn near |
| 20 | the cursor are identified and stored in the selection buffer. |
| 21 | </p><p> |
| 22 | The matrix created by <code class="function">gluPickMatrix</code> is multiplied by the current matrix just |
| 23 | as if <a class="citerefentry" href="glMultMatrix.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glMultMatrix</span></span></a> is called with the generated matrix. |
| 24 | To effectively use the generated pick matrix for picking, |
| 25 | first call <a class="citerefentry" href="glLoadIdentity.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glLoadIdentity</span></span></a> to load an identity matrix onto the |
| 26 | perspective matrix stack. |
| 27 | Then call <code class="function">gluPickMatrix</code>, |
| 28 | and, finally, call a command (such as <a class="citerefentry" href="gluPerspective.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">gluPerspective</span></span></a>) |
| 29 | to multiply the perspective matrix by the pick matrix. |
| 30 | </p><p> |
| 31 | When using <code class="function">gluPickMatrix</code> to pick NURBS, be careful to turn off the NURBS |
| 32 | property |
| 33 | <code class="constant">GLU_AUTO_LOAD_MATRIX</code>. If <code class="constant">GLU_AUTO_LOAD_MATRIX</code> is not |
| 34 | turned off, then any NURBS surface rendered is subdivided differently with |
| 35 | the pick matrix than the way it was subdivided without the pick matrix. |
| 36 | </p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><a id="example"></a><h2>Example</h2><p> |
| 37 | When rendering a scene as follows: |
| 38 | </p><pre class="programlisting"> |
| 39 | glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); |
| 40 | glLoadIdentity(); |
| 41 | gluPerspective(...); |
| 42 | glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); |
| 43 | /* Draw the scene */ |
| 44 | </pre><p> |
| 45 | a portion of the viewport can be selected as a pick region like this: |
| 46 | </p><pre class="programlisting"> |
| 47 | glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); |
| 48 | glLoadIdentity(); |
| 49 | gluPickMatrix(x, y, width, height, viewport); |
| 50 | gluPerspective(...); |
| 51 | glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); |
| 52 | /* Draw the scene */ |
