clearly, since Clutter is a toolkit aimed at writing User Interfaces. :-) Clutter has a very different scope than raw OpenGL - otherwise we wouldn't even have bothered to write it. it's also one of the non-niche uses of OpenGL, now that the Linux graphics stack is getting more polished and we can actually use OpenGL for writing hardware accelerated user interfaces. ciao, Emmanuele. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
