The initial value is GL_ONE. dstRGB Specifies how the red, green, and blue destination blending factors are computed. The initial value is GL_ZERO. srcAlpha Specified how the alpha source blending factor is computed. The initial value is GL_ONE. dstAlpha Specified how the alpha destination blending factor is computed. The initial value is GL_ZERO. Description Pixels can be drawn using a function that blends the incoming (source) RGBA values with the RGBA values that are already in the frame buffer (the destination values). Blending is initially disabled. Use glEnable and glDisable with argument GL_BLEND to enable and disable blending. glBlendFuncSeparate defines the operation of blending when it is enabled. srcRGB specifies which method is used to scale the source RGB-color components. dstRGB specifies which method is used to scale the destination RGB-color components. Likewise, srcAlpha specifies which method is used to scale the source alpha color component, and dstAlpha specifies which method is used to scale the destination alpha component. The possible methods are described in the following table. Each method defines four scale factors, one each for red, green, blue, and alpha. In the table and in subsequent equations, source and destination color components are referred to as R s G s B s A s , and R d G d B d A d , respectively. The color specified by glBlendColor is referred to as R c G c B c A c . Source and destination scale factors are referred to as s R s G s B s A and d R d G d B d A . All scale factors have range 0 1 . Prior to blending, unsigned normalized fixed-point color components undergo an implied conversion to floating-point using equation 2.1. This conversion must leave the values 0 and 1 invariant. Blending computations are treated as if carried out in floating-point and will be performed with a precision and dynamic range no lower than that used to represent destination components. If the value of GL_FRAMEBUFFER_ATTACHMENT_COLOR_ENCODING for the framebuffer attachment corresponding to the destination buffer is GL_SRGB, the R, G, and B destination color values (after conversion from fixed-point to floating-point) are considered to be encoded for the sRGB color space and hence must be linearized prior to their use in blending. Each R, G, and B component is converted in the same fashion described for sRGB texture components.

If GL_FRAMEBUFFER_ATTACHMENT_COLOR_ENCODING is not GL_SRGB, then cs = cl: The resulting cs values for R, G, and B, and the unmodified A form a new RGBA color value. If the color buffer is fixed-point, each component is clamped to the range [0; 1] and then converted to a fixed-point value using equation Notes Incoming (source) alpha is correctly thought of as a material opacity, ranging from 1.0 ( K A ), representing complete opacity, to 0.0 (0), representing complete transparency. When more than one color buffer is enabled for drawing, the GL performs blending separately for each enabled buffer, using the contents of that buffer for destination color. (See glDrawBuffers.) Errors GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if either srcRGB or dstRGB is not an accepted value.
