hi guys,
I am very new to openGL. I am currently using Windows 7 64bit Platform, Codeblocks 13.12 and using Glut 3.7. I’d like to know how to use the keyboard function like for.eg press ‘C’ to display the cube and ‘P’ to display the pyramid and ‘S’ to display both. I found this code below that able to draw the 2 polygons. I’d like to know how to go on from here.
#include <windows.h> // for MS Windows
#include <GL/glut.h> // GLUT, include glu.h and gl.h
/* Global variables */
char title[] = “3D Shapes”;

void initGL() {
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f); // Set background color to black and opaque
glClearDepth(1.0f); // Set background depth to farthest
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST); // Enable depth testing for z-culling
glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL); // Set the type of depth-test
glShadeModel(GL_SMOOTH); // Enable smooth shading
glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL_NICEST); // Nice perspective corrections
}

whenever the window needs to be re-painted. */
