Re: [PD] Re : GEM units
Most Gem objects are wrappers to OpenGL commands. While pd-list is indeed full of helpful fellows, I would suggest looking into documents on OpenGL for facts and design concepts unclear through reading only ones installed with Gem. i.e., as I see from searching, your question may be new to this list but appears to be an FAQ in the OpenGL field. Although I do not recommend it, flipping through the first 4 chapters of the OpenGL programming guide http://www.opengl.org/documentation/red_book/ even if you are not specifically a C programmer. It helped me catch up with sooo many WHYs of Gem which had me puzzled for years. -- David Shimamoto i was just curious, since it's obviously not pixels or anything else that i could understand... i'll stick to the hannah montana/talk talk motto then. thank you all ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
[PD] Re : GEM units
In fact, if you don't change the gemwin's view parameters , z = 4. So if you create a 512 * 512 dimensions window for example, and if you want to build a square with te same dimensions, your square's size will be 4. Il you create a 600 * 400 dimensions window, the size of corresponding rectangle will be 6 * 4. Is this what you wanted to know? t Le 3/03/10 0:54, « Jon » potaxpo...@gmail.com a écrit : this must be documented somewhere, but i can't locate it. is there some logic to the size units for GEM objects? like: what exactly is 2 in [cube 2]? thankyou jon ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Re: [PD] Re : GEM units
A rectangle at position 0 0 0 with rotation 0 0 0 with height 4 exactly fits the screen height. So yes, there is actually a refernce: the screen height.
