DESCRIPTION

Texturing maps a portion of a specified texture image onto each graphical primitive for which texturing is enabled. To enable and disable three-dimensional texturing, call  glEnable and  glDisable with argument  GL_TEXTURE_3D.

To define texture images, call  glTexImage3D. The arguments describe the parameters of the texture image, such as height, width, depth, width of the border, level-of-detail number (see  glTexParameter), and number of color components provided. The last three arguments describe how the image is represented in memory; they are identical to the pixel formats used for  glDrawPixels.

If target is  GL_PROXY_TEXTURE_3D, no data is read from pixels, but all of the texture image state is recalculated, checked for consistency, and checked against the implementation’s capabilities. If the implementation cannot handle a texture of the requested texture size, it sets all of the image state to 0, but does not generate an error (see  glGetError). To query for an entire mipmap array, use an image array level greater than or equal to 1.

If target is  GL_TEXTURE_3D, data is read from pixels as a sequence of signed or unsigned bytes, shorts, or longs, or single-precision floating-point values, depending on type. These values are grouped into sets of one, two, three, or four values, depending on format, to form elements. If type is  GL_BITMAP, the data is considered as a string of unsigned bytes (and format must be  GL_COLOR_INDEX). Each data byte is treated as eight 1-bit elements, with bit ordering determined by  GL_UNPACK_LSB_FIRST (see  glPixelStore).

The first element corresponds to the lower left corner of the texture image. Subsequent elements progress left-to-right through the remaining texels in the lowest row of the texture image, and then in successively higher rows of the texture image. The final element corresponds to the upper right corner of the texture image.

format determines the composition of each element in pixels. It can assume one of eleven symbolic values:
 GL_COLOR_INDEX
  Each element is a single value, a color index. The GL converts it to fixed point (with an unspecified number of zero bits to the right of the binary point), shifted left or right depending on the value and sign of  GL_INDEX_SHIFT, and added to  GL_INDEX_OFFSET (see
 glPixelTransfer). The resulting index is converted to a set of color components using the  GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_R,  GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_G,  GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_B, and  GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_A tables, and clamped to the range [0,1].
 GL_RED Each element is a single red component. The GL converts it to floating point and assembles it into an RGBA element by attaching 0 for green and blue, and 1 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see  glPixelTransfer).
 GL_GREEN Each element is a single green component. The GL converts it to floating point and assembles it into an RGBA element by attaching 0 for red and blue, and 1 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see  glPixelTransfer).
 GL_BLUE Each element is a single blue component. The GL converts it to floating point and assembles it into an RGBA element by attaching 0 for red and green, and 1 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see  glPixelTransfer).
 GL_ALPHA Each element is a single alpha component. The GL converts it to floating point and assembles it into an RGBA element by attaching 0 for red, green, and blue. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see  glPixelTransfer).
 GL_RGB
 GL_BGR
Each element is an RGB triple. The GL converts it to floating point and assembles it into an RGBA element by attaching 1 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see
 glPixelTransfer).
 GL_RGBA
 GL_BGRA
Each element contains all four components. Each component is multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see  glPixelTransfer).
 GL_LUMINANCE
  Each element is a single luminance value. The GL converts it to floating point, then assembles it into an RGBA element by replicating the luminance value three times for red, green, and blue and attaching 1 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see  glPixelTransfer).
 GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA
  Each element is a luminance/alpha pair. The GL converts it to floating point, then assembles it into an RGBA element by replicating the luminance value three times for red, green, and blue. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor  GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias  GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see
 glPixelTransfer).
Refer to the  glDrawPixels reference page for a description of the acceptable values for the type parameter.

If an application wants to store the texture at a certain resolution or in a certain , it can request the resolution and with internalFormat. The GL will choose an internal representation that closely approximates that requested by internalFormat, but it may not match exactly. (The representations specified by  GL_LUMINANCE,  GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA,  GL_RGB, and  GL_RGBA must match exactly. The numeric values 1, 2, 3, and 4 may also be used to specify the above representations.)

Use the  GL_PROXY_TEXTURE_3D target to try out a resolution and
.The implementation will update and recompute its best match for the requested storage resolution and . To then query this state, call  glGetTexLevelParameter. If the texture cannot be accommodated, texture state is set to 0.

A one-component texture image uses only the red component of the RGBA color extracted from pixels. A two-component image uses the R and A values. A three-component image uses the R, G, and B values. A four-component image uses all of the RGBA components.

NOTES

Texturing has no effect in color index mode.

The texture image can be represented by the same data formats as the pixels in a  glDrawPixels command, except that  GL_STENCIL_INDEX and  GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT cannot be used.  glPixelStore and  glPixelTransfer modes affect texture images in exactly the way they affect  glDrawPixels.

 glTexImage3D is available only if the GL version is 1.2 or greater.

Internal formats other than 1, 2, 3, or 4 may be used only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.

pixels may be a null pointer. In this case texture memory is allocated to accommodate a texture of width width, height height, and depth depth. You can then download subtextures to initialize this texture memory. The image is undefined if the user tries to apply an uninitialized portion of the texture image to a primitive.

Formats  GL_BGR, and  GL_BGRA and types  GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_3_3_2,  GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_2_3_3_REV,  GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5,  GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5_REV,  GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4,  GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4_REV,  GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_5_5_1,  GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_1_5_5_5_REV,  GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8,  GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV,  GL_UNSIGNED_INT_10_10_10_2, and  GL_UNSIGNED_INT_2_10_10_10_REV are available only if the GL version is 1.2 or greater.

When the  GL_ARB_multitexture extension is supported,  glTexImage3D specifies the three-dimensional texture for the current texture unit, specified with  glActiveTextureARB.

If the  GL_ARB_imaging extension is supported, RGBA elements may also be processed by the imaging pipeline. The following stages may be applied to an RGBA color before color component clamping to the range [0, 1]:
1. Color component replacement by the color table specified for
   GL_COLOR_TABLE, if enabled. See  glColorTable.
2. Color component replacement by the color table specified for
   GL_POST_CONVOLUTION_COLOR_TABLE, if enabled. See  glColorTable.
3. Transformation by the color matrix. See  glMatrixMode.
4. RGBA components may be multiplied by  GL_POST_COLOR_MATRIX_c_SCALE,
  and added to  GL_POST_COLOR_MATRIX_c_BIAS, if enabled. See  glPixelTransfer.
5. Color component replacement by the color table specified for
   GL_POST_COLOR_MATRIX_COLOR_TABLE, if enabled. See  glColorTable.
