PARAMETERS    [Toc]    [Back]

     v	  Specifies a pointer to an array that contains	red, green, blue, and
	  (sometimes) alpha values.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The GL stores both	a current single-valued	color index and	a current
     four-valued RGBA color.  glColor sets a new four-valued RGBA color.
     glColor has two major variants:  glColor3 and glColor4.  glColor3
     variants specify new red, green, and blue values explicitly and set the

     current alpha value to 1.0	(full intensity) implicitly.  glColor4
     variants specify all four color components	explicitly.

     glColor3b,	glColor4b, glColor3s, glColor4s, glColor3i, and	glColor4i take
     three or four signed byte,	short, or long integers	as arguments.  When v
     is	appended to the	name, the color	commands can take a pointer to an
     array of such values.

     Current color values are stored in	floating-point format, with
     unspecified mantissa and exponent sizes.  Unsigned	integer	color
     components, when specified, are linearly mapped to	floating-point values
     such that the largest representable value maps to 1.0 (full intensity),
     and 0 maps	to 0.0 (zero intensity).  Signed integer color components,
     when specified, are linearly mapped to floating-point values such that
     the most positive representable value maps	to 1.0,	and the	most negative
     representable value maps to -1.0. (Note that this mapping does not
     convert 0 precisely to 0.0.)  Floating-point values are mapped directly.

     Neither floating-point nor	signed integer values are clamped to the range
     [0,1] before the current color is updated.	 However, color	components are
     clamped to	this range before they are interpolated	or written into	a
     color buffer.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The initial value for the current color is	(1, 1, 1, 1).

     The current color can be updated at any time.  In particular, glColor can
     be	called between a call to glBegin and the corresponding call to glEnd.
