Description

Mode for Begin: draw quads.

If you want to draw something 2D in screen space then probably you will want to use GL.LoadOrtho or GL.LoadPixelMatrix.
If you want something in "3D", then probably you should consider using GL.LoadIdentity followed by GL.MultMatrix with the actual 3D transform you want your stuff to be in.

See Also: GL.Begin, GL.End.

	// and also draw a small cyan Quad in the left corner
