一句话glColorMaterial的作用是用来在绘图的过程中实时的设置材质。通常情况下设置一个物体的材质需要以下这么5个属性需要设置。
glMaterialfv(GL_FRONT, GL_AMBIENT, no_mat);
glMaterialfv(GL_FRONT, GL_DIFFUSE, mat_diffuse);
glMaterialfv(GL_FRONT, GL_SPECULAR, no_mat);
glMaterialfv(GL_FRONT, GL_SHININESS, no_shininess);
glMaterialfv(GL_FRONT, GL_EMISSION, no_mat);
除了采用glMaterialfv()设置材质外,还可以使用glColorMaterial()设置材质属性。
void glColorMaterial(GLenum face,GLenum mode)来实现。
face的取值: GL_FRONT GL_BACK GL_FRONT_AND_BACK
mode的取值: GL_AMBIENT GL_DIFFUSE GL_AMBIENT_AND_DIFFUSE GL_SPECULAR GL_EMISSION
在想要使用这个函数时,要启用glEnable(GL_COLOR_MATERIAL)来是函数工作。
在绘图时使用glColor*()来实时改变材质颜色,或用glMaterial()来实时改变材质成分
使用完毕,要用glDisable(GL_COLOR_MATERIAL)来关闭这种材质模式。
例如:
glColorMaterial(GL_FRONT,GL_DIFFUSE);
glEnable(GL_COLOR_MATERIAL);
glColor3f(0.3,0.5,0.7);
//画一些物体:
...
glColor3f(0.0,1.0,0.0);
//再画另一些物体:
...
glDisable(GL_COLOR_MATERIAL);
说明:
当需要改变场景中大部分方面的单个材质时,最好调用glColorMaterial()
当修改不只一个材质参数,最好调用glMaterial*(),这是目前我体会到唯一的使用功能上的不同点吧。
After calling glColorMaterial(), you need to call glEnable() with GL_COLOR_MATERIAL as the parameter. Then, you can change the current color usingglColor*() (or other material properties, using glMaterial*()) as needed as you draw:
glEnable(GL_COLOR_MATERIAL);
glColorMaterial(GL_FRONT, GL_DIFFUSE);
/* now glColor* changes diffuse reflection */
glColor3f(0.2, 0.5, 0.8);
/* draw some objects here */
glColorMaterial(GL_FRONT, GL_SPECULAR);
/* glColor* no longer changes diffuse reflection */
/* now glColor* changes specular reflection */
glColor3f(0.9, 0.0, 0.2);
/* draw other objects here */
glDisable(GL_COLOR_MATERIAL);
You should use glColorMaterial() whenever you need to change a single material parameterfor most vertices in your scene. If you need to change more than one material parameter, as was the case for"Plate 16" in Appendix I, use glMaterial*(). When you don't need the capabilities ofglColorMaterial() anymore, be sure to disable it so that you don't get undesired material properties and don't incur the performance cost associated with it.
