NAME
glutUseLayer - changes the layer in use for the current

ARGUMENTS
layer Either GLUT_NORMAL or GLUT_OVERLAY, selecting
the normal plane or overlay respectively.

DESCRIPTION
glutUseLayer changes the per-window layer in use for the
current window, selecting either the normal plane or over-
lay. The overlay should only be specified if an overlay
exists, however windows without an overlay may still call
glutUseLayer(GLUT_NORMAL). OpenGL commands for the window
are directed to the current layer in use.

Get(GLUT_LAYER_IN_USE).
