GLTRANSLATE()                                                    GLTRANSLATE()

NAME
       glTranslated, glTranslatef - multiply the current matrix by a
       translation matrix

C SPECIFICATION
       void glTranslated( GLdouble x,
                          GLdouble y,
                          GLdouble z )
       void glTranslatef( GLfloat x,
                          GLfloat y,
                          GLfloat z )

PARAMETERS
       x, y, z
              Specify the x, y, and z coordinates of a translation vector.

DESCRIPTION
       glTranslate produces a translation by (x, y, z).  The current matrix
       (see
       glMatrixMode) is multiplied by this translation matrix, with the
       product replacing the current matrix, as if glMultMatrix were called
       with the following matrix for its argument:

       ((1 0 0 0) (0 1 0 0) (0 0 1 0) (x y z 1))

       If the matrix mode is either GL_MODELVIEW or GL_PROJECTION, all objects
       drawn after a call to glTranslate are translated.

       Use glPushMatrix and glPopMatrix to save and restore the untranslated
       coordinate system.

ERRORS
       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glTranslate is executed between
       the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.

ASSOCIATED GETS
       glGet with argument GL_MATRIX_MODE
       glGet with argument GL_MODELVIEW_MATRIX
       glGet with argument GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX
       glGet with argument GL_TEXTURE_MATRIX
