points and triangles

[hamzat]

Hi all,
In my app I have to visualise GL_POINTS and GL_TRIANGLES. My triangles are with lighting. My points have to be without lighting. When I visualise points only I turn of the lighting, when I draw triangles only I draw them with lighting. I tried to draw the points with lighting also but when I rotate the scene they have different colors. How could I visualise both points without lighting and triangles with lighting on one scene?
Thank you in advance.

You are probably going to get busted because this REALLY belongs to the Beginners forum....

Anyway, here is the way to do it:

glDisable(GL_LIGHTING);
RenderMyPoints();
glEnable(GL_LIGHTING);
RenderMyTriangels();

You are not forced to have all you scene lit... You can call glDisable/glEnable with GL_LIGHTING as a parameter whenever you want (except between glBegin and glEnd, that is !).

Regards.
