Hi,
How is the Mac (Mac OS X) supported currently?
pretty good. Just compiled the current OpenSG-cvs on my mini 3 days ago without any issue.
Does the current stable version work on iMac's?
Well, if you would like to try the new text library, which utilizes native fonts on OSX (and Windows), you should use the cvs version.
Are there any requirements for it to work?
OSX dev tools/libs (with gl and glut) form apple. Fink if you need tif and png support: fink.sf.net qt for qt stuff :) www.trolltech.no
Is there something that does not work on the iMac?
Well, the only thing that does not work right now is the QTWindow. Since the code only includes some wild defines for WIN32 and otherwise assumes that you are running on a machine with XWindow --- both not really true on my mac :)........................................................................ .....................
#ifdef WIN32
class OSG_WINDOWQTLIB_DLLMAPPING QTWindowBase : public WIN32Window
#else
class OSG_WINDOWQTLIB_DLLMAPPING QTWindowBase : public XWindow
#endif
{

The only think that was missing until now is a native mac Window. Patrick Dähne wrote one which can even utilize real 32 bit visuals with Alpha (or whatever it is called on OSX, see attachments). Will be in cvs very soon after some more tests. Best regards, Johannes
