An idea to fix betawidget

Post by macuser »

I was looking through the trac wiki to try and find the betawidget mockup for my mod, when I found this http://developer.wz2100.net/wiki/Descri ... Betawidget I think I know how I can fix the problem of the 3d content always being on the top :geek: ! In mac (quartz composer) I think it may be an openGL thing, you can do what is called "render in image" this lets you render in realtime a 3d graphic and output it to an image that is updated in realtime. So if you did that with betawidget ... it may work :wink:

Betawidget is not currently being worked on. The Qt toolkit is the planned replacement.

Not even close.

qt-trunk is pretty much normal warzone.

However, if anyone wants to create a new widget library using Qt, then feel free. :)
and it ends here.
