Multiplies the current matrix by a translation matrix.
OpenGL C bindings library: libGL.a
void glTranslated(GLdouble X, GLdouble Y, GLdouble Z)
void glTranslatef(GLfloat X, GLfloat Y, GLfloat Z)
| X, Y, Z | Specify the X, Y, and Z coordinates of a translation vector. |
The glTranslate subroutine moves the coordinate system origin to the point specified by (X,Y,Z). The translation vector is used to compute a 4 x 4 translation matrix as follows:
The current matrix (see the glMatrixMode subroutine for information on specifying the current matrix) is multiplied by this translation matrix, with the product replacing the current matrix. That is, if M is the current matrix and T is the translation matrix, M is replaced with MT.
If the matrix mode is either GL_MODELVIEW or GL_PROJECTION, all objects drawn after glTranslate is called are translated. Use the glPushMatrix and glPopMatrix subroutines to save and restore the untranslated coordinate system.
| GL_INVALID_OPERATION | The glTranslate subroutine is called between a call to glBegin and the corresponding call to glEnd. |
Associated gets for the glTranslate subroutine are as follows. (See the glGet subroutine for more information.)
glGet with argument GL_MATRIX_MODE
glGet with argument GL_MODELVIEW_MATRIX
glGet with argument GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX
glGet with argument GL_TEXTURE_MATRIX.
