GLUTINITWINDOWPOSITION(3)
โจ GLUTINITWINDOWPOSITION โจ
okay so bestie, welcome to OpenGLUT - window ๐ this one's about glutInitWindowPosition โ the little function that asks future windows to open at a given position. yes, future windows. it's giving manifestation era ๐ฎโจ
๐ธ NAME ๐ธ
glutInitWindowPosition โ Requests future windows to open at a given position. ๐ช๐
๐ LIBRARY ๐
OpenGLUT โ the window chapter, iykyk ๐ซถ
โจ SYNOPSIS โจ
#include <openglut.h>
void
glutInitWindowPosition(int x, int y);
like. that's it. that's the whole thing. two ints and a dream ๐
๐ฆ PARAMETERS ๐ฆ
xโ X coordinate. yes the horizontal one, the left-right vibe ๐yโ Y coordinate. the vertical one, up-down energy โฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธ
๐ DESCRIPTION ๐
so here's the tea, bestie: this function lets you request an initial position for future windows. ๐ซถ
and I say request because โ okay โ it's a request, not a demand. you're sliding the window manager a little note like "hey, maybe put it here? ๐ฅบ" and it may or may not take the hint. no cap. this is literally all the original says, so I'm not gonna invent extra lore for you. ๐คทโ๏ธ
it's the positioning cousin of all the other glutInit* setup calls you'd run before you actually open anything โ you set the vibe up front, and future windows inherit it. main character setup energy ๐
๐ SEE ALSO ๐
glutPositionWindow(3)โ for moving a window you already have ๐glutInit(3)โ the big init bestie ๐ฑglutInitWindowSize(3)โ how big tho ๐glutInitDisplayMode(3)โ the display mode vibes ๐ฅ๏ธglutInitDisplayString(3)โ same idea, string flavored ๐คglutGet(3)โ go ask questions and get answers ๐
๐ reminder: this is a request. don't come for the window manager if it ghosts your coordinates. it's not personal, it's policy.
and that's the whole page, bestie, we ate and left no crumbs ๐โจ this was OpenGLUT, and the original footer was just sitting there saying UNDATED and UNTITLED() โ so consider this the sign-off: undated, untitled, and still absolutely iconic ๐๐๐ฆ periodt.
