9 void glPolygonStipple(const GLubyte * pattern);
10
12 pattern
13 Specifies a pointer to a 32 × 32 stipple pattern that will be
14 unpacked from memory in the same way that glDrawPixels() unpacks
15 pixels.
16
18 Polygon stippling, like line stippling (see glLineStipple()), masks out
19 certain fragments produced by rasterization, creating a pattern.
20 Stippling is independent of polygon antialiasing.
21
22 pattern is a pointer to a 32 × 32 stipple pattern that is stored in
23 memory just like the pixel data supplied to a glDrawPixels() call with
24
25 height and width both equal to 32, a pixel format of GL_COLOR_INDEX,
26 and data type of GL_BITMAP. That is, the stipple pattern is represented
27 as a 32 × 32 array of 1-bit color indices packed in unsigned bytes.
28 glPixelStore() parameters like GL_UNPACK_SWAP_BYTES and
29 GL_UNPACK_LSB_FIRST affect the assembling of the bits into a stipple
30 pattern. Pixel transfer operations (shift, offset, pixel map) are not
31 applied to the stipple image, however.
32
33 If a non-zero named buffer object is bound to the
34 GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER target (see glBindBuffer()) while a stipple
35 pattern is specified, pattern is treated as a byte offset into the
36 buffer object's data store.
37
38 To enable and disable polygon stippling, call glEnable() and
39 glDisable() with argument GL_POLYGON_STIPPLE. Polygon stippling is
40 initially disabled. If it's enabled, a rasterized polygon fragment with
41 window coordinates x w and y w is sent to the next stage of the GL if
42 and only if the (x w % 32)th bit in the (y w % 32)th row of the stipple
43 pattern is 1 (one). When polygon stippling is disabled, it is as if the
44 stipple pattern consists of all 1's.
45
47 GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is
48 bound to the GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER target and the buffer object's data
49 store is currently mapped.
50
51 GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is
52 bound to the GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER target and the data would be
53 unpacked from the buffer object such that the memory reads required
54 would exceed the data store size.
55
56 GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glPolygonStipple is executed
57 between the execution of glBegin() and the corresponding execution of
58 glEnd().
