The ANGLE_instanced_arrays.drawElementsInstancedANGLE()
method of the WebGL API renders primitives from array data like the gl.drawElements()
method. In addition, it can execute multiple instances of a set of elements.
Note: When using WebGL2
, this method is available as gl.drawElementsInstanced()
by default.
drawElementsInstancedANGLE(mode, count, type, offset, primcount)
Parameters
mode
A GLenum
specifying the type primitive to render. Possible values are:
gl.POINTS
: Draws a single dot.gl.LINE_STRIP
: Draws a straight line to the next vertex.gl.LINE_LOOP
: Draws a straight line to the next vertex, and connects the last vertex back to the first.gl.LINES
: Draws a line between a pair of vertices.gl.TRIANGLE_STRIP
gl.TRIANGLE_FAN
gl.TRIANGLES
: Draws a triangle for a group of three vertices.count
A GLsizei
specifying the number of elements to be rendered.
type
A GLenum
specifying the type of the values in the element array buffer. Possible values are:
gl.UNSIGNED_BYTE
gl.UNSIGNED_SHORT
gl.UNSIGNED_INT
when using the OES_element_index_uint
extension.offset
A GLintptr
specifying an offset in the element array buffer. Must be a valid multiple of the size of the given type
.
primcount
A GLsizei
specifying the number of instances of the set of elements to execute.
None (undefined
).
mode
is not one of the accepted values, a gl.INVALID_ENUM
error is thrown.offset
is an invalid multiple of the size of the given type, a gl.INVALID_OPERATION
error is thrown.count
or primcount
are negative, a gl.INVALID_VALUE
error is thrown.const ext = gl.getExtension("ANGLE_instanced_arrays");
ext.drawElementsInstancedANGLE(gl.POINTS, 2, gl.UNSIGNED_SHORT, 0, 4);
