glPushMatrix
glPushMatrix, glPopMatrix: push and pop the current matrix stack.
C Specification
void glPushMatrix(void)
void glPopMatrix(void)
Description
There is a stack of matrices for each of the matrix modes. In GL_MODELVIEW mode,
the stack depth is at least 32. In the other two modes, GL_PROJECTION and
GL_TEXTURE, the depth is at least 2. The current matrix in any mode is the matrix on
the top of the stack for that mode.
glPushMatrix pushes the current matrix stack down by one, duplicating the current
matrix. That is, after a glPushMatrix call, the matrix on top of the stack is identical to
the one below it.
glPopMatrix pops the current matrix stack, replacing the current matrix with the one
below it on the stack.
Initially, each of the stacks contains one matrix, an identity matrix.
It is an error to push a full matrix stack, or to pop a matrix stack that contains only a
single matrix. In either case, the error flag is set and no other change is made to GL
state.
Errors
• GL_STACK_OVERFLOW is generated if glPushMatrix is called while the current
matrix stack is full.
• GL_STACK_UNDERFLOW is generated if glPopMatrix is called while the current
matrix stack contains only a single matrix.
• GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glPushMatrix or glPopMatrix is
executed between the execution of glBegin andthe corresponding execution ofglEnd.
