glLoadIdentity
glLoadIdentity: replace the current matrix with the identity matrix.
C Specification
void glLoadIdentity(void)
Description
glLoadIdentity replaces the current matrix with the identity matrix. It is semantically
equivalent to calling glLoadMatrix with the identity matrix:
1 0 0 0
0 1 0 0
0 0 1 0
0 0 0 1
but in some cases it is more efficient.
Errors
• GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glLoadIdentity is executed between the
execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
