GLLINEWIDTH() GLLINEWIDTH() NAME glLineWidth - specify the width of rasterized lines C SPECIFICATION void glLineWidth( GLfloat width ) delim $$ PARAMETERS width Specifies the width of rasterized lines. The initial value is 1. DESCRIPTION glLineWidth specifies the rasterized width of both aliased and an- tialiased lines. Using a line width other than 1 has different ef- fects, depending on whether line antialiasing is enabled. To enable and disable line antialiasing, call glEnable and glDisable with argu- ment GL_LINE_SMOOTH. Line antialiasing is initially disabled. If line antialiasing is disabled, the actual width is determined by rounding the supplied width to the nearest integer. (If the rounding results in the value 0, it is as if the line width were 1.) If | DELTA x | >= | DELTA y |, i pixels are filled in each column that is rasterized, where i is the rounded value of width. Otherwise, i pixels are filled in each row that is rasterized. If antialiasing is enabled, line rasterization produces a fragment for each pixel square that intersects the region lying within the rectangle having width equal to the current line width, length equal to the ac- tual length of the line, and centered on the mathematical line segment. The coverage value for each fragment is the window coordinate area of the intersection of the rectangular region with the corresponding pixel square. This value is saved and used in the final rasterization step. Not all widths can be supported when line antialiasing is enabled. If an unsupported width is requested, the nearest supported width is used. Only width 1 is guaranteed to be supported; others depend on the imple- mentation. To query the range of supported widths and the size differ- ence between supported widths within the range, call glGet with argu- ments GL_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE and GL_LINE_WIDTH_GRANULARITY. NOTES The line width specified by glLineWidth is always returned when GL_LINE_WIDTH is queried. Clamping and rounding for aliased and an- tialiased lines have no effect on the specified value. Nonantialiased line width may be clamped to an implementation-dependent maximum. Although this maximum cannot be queried, it must be no less than the maximum value for antialiased lines, rounded to the nearest integer value. ERRORS GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if width is less than or equal to 0. GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glLineWidth is executed between the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
