.TP \w'\fIaspect\fP\ \ 'u
|
||
|
\f2fovy\fP
|
||
|
Specifies the field of view angle, in degrees, in the \f2y\fP direction.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\f2aspect\fP
|
||
|
Specifies the aspect ratio that determines
|
||
|
the field of view in the \f2x\fP direction.
|
||
|
The aspect ratio is the ratio of \f2x\fP (width) to \f2y\fP (height).
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\f2zNear\fP
|
||
|
Specifies the distance from the viewer to the near clipping plane
|
||
|
(always positive).
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\f2zFar\fP
|
||
|
Specifies the distance from the viewer to the far clipping plane
|
||
|
(always positive).
|
||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
\%\f3gluPerspective\fP specifies a viewing frustum into the world coordinate system.
|
||
|
In general, the aspect ratio in \%\f3gluPerspective\fP should match the aspect ratio
|
||
|
of the associated viewport. For example, $ "aspect" ~=~ 2.0 $ means
|
||
|
the viewer's
|
||
|
angle of view is twice as wide in \f2x\fP as it is in \f2y\fP.
|
||
|
If the viewport is
|
||
|
twice as wide as it is tall, it displays the image without distortion.
|
||
|
.P
|
||
|
The matrix generated by \%\f3gluPerspective\fP is multiplied by the current matrix,
|
||
|
just as if \f3glMultMatrix\fP were called with the generated matrix.
|
||
|
To load the perspective matrix onto the current matrix stack instead,
|
||
|
precede the call to \%\f3gluPerspective\fP with a call to \f3glLoadIdentity\fP.
|
||
|

||

Given \f2f\fP defined as follows:

.SH NOTES
|
||
|
Depth buffer precision is affected by the values specified for
|
||
|
\f2zNear\fP and \f2zFar\fP.
|
||
|
The greater the ratio of \f2zFar\fP to \f2zNear\fP is,
|
||
|
the less effective the depth buffer will be at distinguishing between
|
||
|
surfaces that are near each other.
|
||
|
If
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
.ce
|
||
|
$r ~=~ "zFar" over "zNear"$
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
.P
|
||
|
roughly $log sub 2 r$ bits of depth buffer precision are lost.
|
||
|
Because $r$ approaches infinity as \f2zNear\fP approaches 0,
|
||
|
\f2zNear\fP must never be set to 0.
