In my vertex shader, I'd like to set the w component to 1.
How can this be done, after
gl_Position = MVP * vec4(vertexPosition_modelspace, 1);

1\$\begingroup\$ @Edward - "how do I switch off perspective divide?" might have been a better question then; ask about what you want to do, not how you want to do it. Further reading: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/66377/what-is-the-xy-problem \$\endgroup\$ – Maximus Minimus Jan 29 '18 at 19:46

\$\begingroup\$ Then don't use a perspective projection but an orthographic projection matrix instead \$\endgroup\$ – ratchet freak Jan 29 '18 at 20:37

\$\begingroup\$ I just wanted to see the effect switching it off had on a perspective projection. Seems to yield very similar results to an orthographic projection, when rendering a simple coloured cube. \$\endgroup\$ – Edward Jan 29 '18 at 22:30

You can use swizzles to access specific coordinates in the vector.
gl_Position.w = 1.0;
