{{PageDescription}}
{{PageDescription}}
 
* OpenGL's documentation is available in several places, so we won't reproduce it here for another time.
'''_glReadPixels''' returns pixel data from the frame buffer, starting with the pixel whose lower left corner is at location ({{Parameter|x}}, {{Parameter|y}}), into client memory starting at location {{Parameter|data}}. Several parameters control the processing of the pixel data before it is placed into client memory. These parameters are set with {{KW|_glPixelStore}}. This reference page describes the effects on '''_glReadPixels''' of most, but not all of the parameters specified by these three commands.
* The full description for this command can be found at [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/opengl/glreadpixels Microsoft Docs] and is also valid for QB64 usage.
 
If a non-zero named buffer object is bound to the {{KW|_GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER}} target (see {{KW|_glBindBuffer}}) while a block of pixels is requested, {{Parameter|data}} is treated as a byte offset into the buffer object's data store rather than a pointer to client memory.
 
'''_glReadPixels''' returns values from each pixel with lower left corner at (''x'' + ''i'', ''y'' + ''j'') for 0 <= ''i'' < ''width'' and 0 <= ''j'' < ''height''. This pixel is said to be the ''i''th pixel in the ''j''th row. Pixels are returned in row order from the lowest to the highest row, left to right in each row.
 
{{Parameter|format}} specifies the format for the returned pixel values; accepted values are:
 
; {{KW|_GL_STENCIL_INDEX}}
: Stencil values are read from the stencil buffer. Each index is converted to fixed point, shifted left or right depending on the value and sign of {{KW|_GL_INDEX_SHIFT}}, and added to {{KW|_GL_INDEX_OFFSET}}. If {{KW|_GL_MAP_STENCIL}} is {{KW|_GL_TRUE}}, indices are replaced by their mappings in the table {{KW|_GL_PIXEL_MAP_S_TO_S}}.
; {{KW|_GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT}}
: Depth values are read from the depth buffer. Each component is converted to floating point such that the minimum depth value maps to 0 and the maximum value maps to 1. Each component is then multiplied by {{KW|_GL_DEPTH_SCALE}}, added to {{KW|_GL_DEPTH_BIAS}}, and finally clamped to the range [0, 1].
; {{KW|_GL_DEPTH_STENCIL}}
: Values are taken from both the depth and stencil buffers. The {{Parameter|type}} parameter must be {{KW|_GL_UNSIGNED_INT_24_8}} or {{KW|_GL_FLOAT_32_UNSIGNED_INT_24_8_REV}}.
; {{KW|_GL_RED}}
; {{KW|_GL_GREEN}}
; {{KW|_GL_BLUE}}
; {{KW|_GL_RGB}}
; {{KW|_GL_BGR}}
; {{KW|_GL_RGBA}}
; {{KW|_GL_BGRA}}
: Finally, the indices or components are converted to the proper format, as specified by {{Parameter|type}}. If {{Parameter|format}} is {{KW|_GL_STENCIL_INDEX}} and {{Parameter|type}} is not {{KW|_GL_FLOAT}}, each index is masked with the mask value given in the following table. If {{Parameter|type}} is {{KW|_GL_FLOAT}}, then each integer index is converted to single-precision floating-point format.
 
If {{Parameter|format}} is {{KW|_GL_RED}}, {{KW|_GL_GREEN}}, {{KW|_GL_BLUE}}, {{KW|_GL_RGB}}, {{KW|_GL_BGR}}, {{KW|_GL_RGBA}}, or {{KW|_GL_BGRA}} and {{Parameter|type}} is not {{KW|_GL_FLOAT}}, each component is multiplied by the multiplier shown in the following table. If type is {{KW|_GL_FLOAT}}, then each component is passed as is (or converted to the client's single-precision floating-point format if it is different from the one used by the GL).

Return values are placed in memory as follows. If {{Parameter|format}} is {{KW|_GL_STENCIL_INDEX}}, {{KW|_GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT}}, {{KW|_GL_RED}}, {{KW|_GL_GREEN}}, or {{KW|_GL_BLUE}}, a single value is returned and the data for the ''i''th pixel in the ''j''th row is placed in location ''j'' * ''width'' + ''i''. {{KW|_GL_RGB}} and {{KW|_GL_BGR}} return three values, {{KW|_GL_RGBA}} and {{KW|_GL_BGRA}} return four values for each pixel, with all values corresponding to a single pixel occupying contiguous space in {{Parameter|data}}. Storage parameters set by {{KW|_glPixelStore}}, such as {{KW|_GL_PACK_LSB_FIRST}} and {{KW|_GL_PACK_SWAP_BYTES}}, affect the way that data is written into memory. See {{KW|_glPixelStore}} for a description.

 Note: If a parameter has an asterisk (*) in front, then it's a pointer to
       the designated OpenGL variable type, rather than a value of that type.
       Those must be passed using the _OFFSET(...) notation.

 E.g.  GLuint *anyParam is actually the offset of a _UNSIGNED LONG (~&)
       variable or array, which must be passed as _OFFSET(anyVar~&) or
       _OFFSET(anyArr~&()) respectively.

  (1)  This type is regularly only used for pointers (with asterisk (*)) to
       any byte sized memory data, hence _BYTE or fixed length strings.


Description

  • OpenGL's documentation is available in several places, so we won't reproduce it here for another time.
  • The full description for this command can be found at Microsoft Docs and is also valid for QB64 usage.
