gluPerspective

set up a perspective projection matrix

Signature

gluPerspective( GLdouble ( fovy ) , GLdouble ( aspect ) , GLdouble ( zNear ) , GLdouble ( zFar ) )-> void
gluPerspective( fovy , aspect , zNear , zFar ) 
gluPerspective( GLdouble(fovy), GLdouble(aspect), GLdouble(zNear), GLdouble(zFar) ) -> None

Parameters

VariablesDescription
fovy
Specifies the field of view angle, in degrees, in the y direction.
aspect
Specifies the aspect ratio that determines the field of view in the x direction. The aspect ratio is the ratio of x (width) to y (height).
zNear
Specifies the distance from the viewer to the near clipping plane (always positive).
zFar
Specifies the distance from the viewer to the far clipping plane (always positive).
