OpenGl Units?
Post: #1
In openGL when I draw somting to the screen how do I know what the distance of one openGl unit is compared to a pixal or onscreen coor. Thanks...

if you are in 3D then a unit is varible pixel size... the closer you are to a unit the bigger it is... now you can make the view the exact same size as your window and stick it in orthographic view and you will have 1 unit = 1 pixel at any depth

If you're drawing 2D, gluOrtho2D() lets you set this yourself. For example, in 1024x768 resolution,
gluOrtho2D(0, 1024, 0, 768);
sets OpenGL's units to pixels.
gluOrtho2D(0, 1024, 0, 768);
sets OpenGL's units to pixels.
