Toggles the triangle mesh register pointer.
FORTRAN (libfgl.a)
void swaptmesh( )
SUBROUTINE SWAPTM
The swaptmesh subroutine toggles the triangle mesh register pointer.
The triangle mesh hardware stores two vertices. After each new vertex is specified (and a triangle comprising the new vertex and the two stored vertices is drawn), one of the stored vertices is replaced by the new vertex. The value of a two-value pointer determines which vertex is replaced. This pointer is toggled after each vertex, replacing the alternate stored vertices. The swaptmesh subroutine toggles the pointer without specification of a new vertex (and no triangle is drawn).
This subroutine is part of GL in the AIXwindows Environment/6000 Version 1, Release 2 with AIXwindows/3D Feature.
