FORTRAN (libfgl.a)
void singlebuffer( )
SUBROUTINE SINGLE
The singlebuffer subroutine starts single buffer mode, in which the system simultaneously updates and displays the image data in the active bitplanes. Consequently incomplete or changing pictures can be displayed on the screen. The actual repartitioning of the frame buffer into single buffer mode does not occur until the gconfig subroutine is called.
Smooth animation, in which all drawing is hidden until it is complete, can be achieved in double buffer mode.
Note: This subroutine cannot be used to add to a display list.
This subroutine is part of GL in the AIXwindows Environment/6000 Version 1, Release 2 with AIXwindows/3D Feature.
