Yes, but that's the whole point: we use SSG. And dumbing the HUD down to SSG niveau only to make it smart again with OSG is silly. I think about simple things like glLineWidth. To make that work with SSG one would probably have to write ssg nodes *and* then to implement the missing capabilities with callbacks, using raw code again. So we end up where we started, just with a lot of superfluous extra work. I'd prefer pragmatism to politics here. But then again: "show me the code". Maybe it's easy enough ... :-) m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
