Re: Underscores on the OpenGL spec



I looked at the OpenGL spec (version 2.1), and had a hard time figuring out the channel order of the packed pixels (GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV). My main gripe is that neither Preview nor Adobe Reader could find occurrences of "UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV" (sounds like the underscores and other things give bad juju).

I feel your pain, it is rather annoying. When looking for something with underscores on the OpenGL spec, just treat the underscores as spaces, so in this case a search for UNSIGNED INT 8 8 8 8 REV instead, that should work for you.

Yeah, but only in Adobe Reader...

If you do your search with Preview (such as by looking for "8 REV" with the quotes), you'll only get 3 occurrences: table 3.5, table 4.7, and the index.
That is how I had a hard time finding table 3.11 (from p.135)... That is what I meant by "other things".


On the other hand, Adobe Reader finds 6 occurrences (which seems to make sense, considering the index reports 5 locations), so I guess I'll start using it more often...

Caveat emptor!
