glEnable
3G
glEnable
enable or disable server-side GL capabilities
C Specification
void glEnable
GLenum cap
Parameters
cap
Specifies a symbolic constant indicating a GL capability.
C Specification
void glDisable
GLenum cap
Parameters
cap
Specifies a symbolic constant indicating a GL capability.
Description
glEnable and glDisable enable and disable various capabilities.
Use glIsEnabled or glGet to determine the current setting
of any capability. The initial value for each capability with the
exception of GL_DITHER is GL_FALSE. The initial value for
GL_DITHER is GL_TRUE.
Both glEnable and glDisable take a single argument, cap,
which can assume one of the following values:
GL_BLEND
If enabled,
blend the computed fragment color values with the values in the color
buffers. See glBlendFunc.
GL_CULL_FACE
If enabled,
cull polygons based on their winding in window coordinates.
See glCullFace.
GL_DEPTH_TEST
If enabled,
do depth comparisons and update the depth buffer. Note that even if
the depth buffer exists and the depth mask is non-zero, the
depth buffer is not updated if the depth test is disabled. See
glDepthFunc and
glDepthRangef.
GL_DITHER
If enabled,
dither color components or indices before they are written to the
color buffer.
GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILL
If enabled, an offset is added to depth values of a polygon's
fragments produced by rasterization.
See glPolygonOffset.
GL_SAMPLE_ALPHA_TO_COVERAGE
If enabled,
compute a temporary coverage value where each bit is determined by the
alpha value at the corresponding sample location. The temporary coverage
value is then ANDed with the fragment coverage value.
GL_SAMPLE_COVERAGE
If enabled,
the fragment's coverage is ANDed with the temporary coverage value. If
GL_SAMPLE_COVERAGE_INVERT is set to GL_TRUE, invert the coverage
value.
See glSampleCoverage.
GL_SCISSOR_TEST
If enabled,
discard fragments that are outside the scissor rectangle.
See glScissor.
GL_STENCIL_TEST
If enabled,
do stencil testing and update the stencil buffer.
See glStencilFunc and glStencilOp.
Errors
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if cap is not one of the values
listed previously.
