The best OpenGL tutorial site ever has to be http://nehe.gamedev.net/

Most tutorials come ported to all major platforms and programming languages.

Hey Toaster.

If you're still looking for an OpenGl tutorial for C++ there are a few good ones at this site: http://nehe.gamedev.net/ it shows you how to make the base code for displaying, and then goes onto makeing objects, rotating them, colouring them and so on, the further on you get the more complicated they become, but they are great even for people that arent too good with C++ (like myself )

Like the above posters said, http://nehe.gamedev.net has really good opengl tutorials. Also, check out the main site, http://gamedev.net. It has more good tutorials.

If you can't find many opengl tutorials, Directx tutorials will work as well. Opengl and Directx are close enough that generally a tutorial could work for either one without much modification. With advanced topics I'm not sure if this is the case, but for learning the basics Directx tutorials should do in a pinch. When I first started learning Directx I couldn't find many Directx tutorials, so I had to use opengl ones occansionally. They were a little harder to figure out, but they worked.

how can I rotate an object (cube) when I push both SHIFT and x in openGL?
C++ Opengl Tut.

I can rotate the object by pushing just 'x' botton but I don't know how can I rotate by pushing both SHIFT and 'x' .

I have used glutGetModifiers() function but still I can't rotate.

Please help me .

I personally do not like NeHe's tutorials. It is good though.
