- Overview
-
- This extension provides a way to interlace rows of pixels when
- rasterizing pixel rectangles, and loading texture images. In this
- context, interlacing means skiping over rows of pixels or texels
- in the destination. This is useful for dealing with video data
- since a single frame of video is typically composed from two images
- or fields: one image specifying the data for even rows of the frame
- and the other image specifying the data for odd rows of the frame.

- Additions to Chapter 2 of the 1.0 Specification (OpenGL Operation)
-
- None.
-
- Additions to Chapter 3 of the 1.0 Specification (Rasterization)
-
- The specification of interlace operation is added the GL Specification
- in section 3.6.3 "Rasterization of Pixel Rectangles", immediately
- following the operations described by EXT_histogram, and immediately
- prior to the subsection "Final Conversion".
-
- The interlacing of rows of pixels is enabled or disabled with Enable or
- Disable using the symbolic constant INTERLACE_SGIX. If INTERLACE_SGIX
- is enabled, then all of the groups which belong to a row m are treated
- as if they belonged to the row 2 * m. If the source image has a height
- of h rows, this effectively expands the height of the image to 2 * h - 1
- rows. After interlacing, only every other row of the image is defined.
- If the interlaced pixel rectangle is rasterized to the framebuffer, then
- only these rows are converted to fragments. If the interlaced pixel
- rectangle is a texture image, then only these rows are written to texure
- memory.
-
- In cases where errors can result from the specification of invalid
- image dimensions, it is the resulting dimensions that are tested, not
- the dimensions of the source image. (A specific example is TexImage2D,
- which specifies constraints for image dimensions. Even if TexImage2D
- is called with a null pixel pointer, the dimensions of the resulting
- texture image are those that would result from the effective expansion
- of the specified image due to interlacing.)
-
- Additions to Chapter 4 of the 1.0 Specification (Per-Fragment Operations
- and the Frame Buffer)
-
- In section 4.3 "Drawing, Reading, and Copying Pixels"
-
- INTERLACE_SGIX has no effect on the operation of ReadPixels.
-
