Method Detail

addPoint

public void addPoint(float x,
                     float y,
                     float z,
                     float r,
                     float g,
                     float b,
                     float a)

Add a new point to the list. The red/green/blue/alpha values should be between 0 and 1, not 0 and 255.

draw

public void draw(float size)

Draws the points. Do not call beginGL() before calling this. You may want to use: ((PGraphicsOpenGL)g).gl.glBlendFunc(GL.GL_SRC_ALPHA,GL.GL_ONE); and/or ((PGraphicsOpenGL)g).gl.glDisable(GL.GL_DEPTH_TEST); before calling this to get the points to blend properly.

Parameters:

size - - the size of the points. Note some OpenGL implementations don't support large sizes.
