Second Law of Business Meetings : If there are two possible ways to spell a person's name you will pick the wrong one. Concept4 : Background Color =========================== Idea: ===== In OpenGL we define the background color of the window using the command glClearColor(x, y, z); where x, y and z are the color components blue, green, red (the order is purposely specified incorrectly). Experiment: =========== Using the slider bar try different color values. Exercise ======== I haven't told you the order of the colors taken as arguements to the function glColor3f(). Try different color combinations and find out what x, y, and z stand for. Try different equal portions of the primary colors and see how the color changes Note: ===== Window clearing won't occur just by setting values to glClearColor(). Make sure to make a call to glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT) also. The color values are clmaped in the range [0,1].
