NAME

       glMinSampleShading - specifies minimum rate at which sample shaing takes place

C SPECIFICATION

       void glMinSampleShading(GLfloat value);

PARAMETERS

       value
           Specifies the rate at which samples are shaded within each covered pixel.

DESCRIPTION

       glMinSampleShading specifies the rate at which samples are shaded within a covered pixel.
       Sample-rate shading is enabled by calling glEnable() with the parameter GL_SAMPLE_SHADING.
       If GL_MULTISAMPLE or GL_SAMPLE_SHADING is disabled, sample shading has no effect.
       Otherwise, an implementation must provide at least as many unique color values for each
       covered fragment as specified by value times samples where samples is the value of
       GL_SAMPLES for the current framebuffer. At least 1 sample for each covered fragment is
       generated.

       A value of 1.0 indicates that each sample in the framebuffer should be indpendently
       shaded. A value of 0.0 effectively allows the GL to ignore sample rate shading. Any value
       between 0.0 and 1.0 allows the GL to shade only a subset of the total samples within each
       covered fragment. Which samples are shaded and the algorithm used to select that subset of
       the fragment's samples is implementation dependent.

NOTES

       The type of the value parameter was changed from GLclampf to GLfloat. This change is
       transparent to user code and is described in detail on the removedTypes() page.

ERRORS

       None.
