NAME

al_perspective_transform - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS


#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
void al_perspective_transform(ALLEGRO_TRANSFORM *trans,
   float left, float top, float n,
   float right, float bottom, float f)

    

DESCRIPTION

Like al_orthographic_transform(3alleg5) but honors perspective. If everything is at a z-position of -near it will look the same as with an orthographic transformation.

To use a specific horizontal field of view you can use the relation:


tan(hfov / 2) = (right - left) / 2 / near
