Chris,
Is your image the same every frame (that is, would you be able to see any
superimposition)? Do you use a transparent/translucent background? I found
when using a translucent background that it would just keep adding on top until
I got a solid color.
I also found that you have to call flush(true) every time in postRender in order
to see the results. However, I want to show just what's been drawn during the
last frame. Not every draw command I ever issued. That's why I'm asking about
clearing the drawing buffer. I would have thought that would happen
automatically, so maybe it's a bug. Or maybe I don't understand the class well
enough yet. It'd be nice if they were better documented.
