Vlad, Now that you're wrapping up the baseline libdm + libfb functionality for Qt, I thought I'd toss out an idea as potential follow-up (this is beyond scope for this particular GSoC effort - just a suggested direction to explore if you'd like to continue to improve the Qt dm/fb setup.)
One of the most annoying limitations of the non-OpenGL display managers like X24 is the inability to display shaded geometry (however slowly) as an option. I've wondered if TinyGLES - https://github.com/lunixbochs/tinygles (or maybe, if that has changed too much, the older TinyGL it is based off of - http://www.bellard.org/TinyGL/) might have drawing logic necessary for fast non-OpenGL 2D shaded drawing that could be adapted to (say) the Qt drawing routines. It would be cool to be able to get a shaded view (even a slow one) despite not using an OpenGL-aware backend. No idea if such a thing is at all practical, but it would be a nifty feature if it's something you're interested in checking out. Cheers, CY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ BRL-CAD Developer mailing list brlcad-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/brlcad-devel
