            is disabled (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glEnable</refentrytitle></citerefentry> with parameter
            <constant>GL_PROGRAM_POINT_SIZE</constant>), this value will be used to rasterize points. Otherwise,
            the value written to the shading language built-in variable <code>gl_PointSize</code> will be used.
