glMatrixMode

specify which matrix is the current matrix

Signature

glMatrixMode( GLenum ( mode ) )-> void
glMatrixMode( mode )

Parameters

VariablesDescription
mode
Specifies which matrix stack is the target for subsequent matrix operations. Three values are accepted: GL_MODELVIEW , GL_PROJECTION , and GL_TEXTURE . The initial value is GL_MODELVIEW . Additionally, if the
ARB_imaging
extension is supported, GL_COLOR is also accepted.
