GLUPARTIALDISK(3G)		 OpenGL Manual		    GLUPARTIALDISK(3G)

NAME
       gluPartialDisk - draw an arc of a disk

C SPECIFICATION
       void gluPartialDisk(GLUquadric* quad, GLdouble inner, GLdouble outer,
			   GLint slices, GLint loops, GLdouble start,
			   GLdouble sweep);

PARAMETERS
       quad
	   Specifies a quadrics object (created with gluNewQuadric()).

       inner
	   Specifies the inner radius of the partial disk (can be 0).

       outer
	   Specifies the outer radius of the partial disk.

       slices
	   Specifies the number of subdivisions around the z axis.

       loops
	   Specifies the number of concentric rings about the origin into
	   which the partial disk is subdivided.

       start
	   Specifies the starting angle, in degrees, of the disk portion.

       sweep
	   Specifies the sweep angle, in degrees, of the disk portion.

DESCRIPTION
       gluPartialDisk renders a partial disk on the z = 0 plane. A partial
       disk is similar to a full disk, except that only the subset of the disk
       from start through start + sweep is included (where 0 degrees is along
       the +\f2y\f axis, 90 degrees along the +x axis, 180 degrees along the
       \-y axis, and 270 degrees along the \-x axis).

       The partial disk has a radius of outer and contains a concentric
       circular hole with a radius of inner. If inner is 0, then no hole is
       generated. The partial disk is subdivided around the z axis into slices
       (like pizza slices) and also about the z axis into rings (as specified
       by slices and loops, respectively).

       With respect to orientation, the +z side of the partial disk is
       considered to be outside (see gluQuadricOrientation()). This means that
       if the orientation is set to GLU_OUTSIDE, then any normals generated
       point along the +z axis. Otherwise, they point along the \-z axis.

       If texturing is turned on (with gluQuadricTexture()), texture
       coordinates are generated linearly such that where r = outer, the value
       at (r, 0, 0) is (1.0, 0.5), at (0, r, 0) it is (0.5, 1.0), at (\-r, 0,
       0) it is (0.0, 0.5), and at (0, \-r, 0) it is (0.5, 0.0).
