CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

First of all, kudos to all who have laboured to bring cegui to life over the years. I needed a gui for my opengl project and cegui 0.7.5 is serving well. Second, I just went through a week of intense debugging my opengl+cegui+sdl+pthreads + etc. game-ish app when a race condition reared its ugly hea...

If you want to upload source files, the preferred way is to put them to the page directly and use the <source lang="cpp"> tag to highlight them. Even though I understand your point, allowing zip archives on the wiki opens up a lot of ways to abuse it. (which is probably why it's disallowe...

You should be able to login with the same username and password as the ones you use to login to this forum. Send me a PM if it doesn't work. I'm all sorted there now and able to log in ok. I was about to upload a small example cegui_opengl_example.zip (~300k) to the wiki and link it to http://www.c...

wiki is in a bad shape is because of lack of edits in it The reason may be not what you think. I was put off from editing the wiki because I wasn't able to. The instructions seemed to indicate that if you have registered with the forum (here) then you are able to post to the wiki. But I was not abl...

Ok ... for some systems, it seems the view/perspective gets re-arranged, and needs to be re-set each render: // // (draw your application OpenGL here, as usual) // // (typical OpenGL sequence for display size change) glViewport (0, 0, (GLsizei) _width, (GLsizei) _height); glMatrixMode (GL_PROJECTION...

Ok ... I am now getting my OpenGL application AND CEGUI mingw to draw (using g++ -mno-cygwin) - with WinAPI (WinMain/WndProc etc). :) Still have some issues to iron out, but I am optimistic they will get solved too. (Unfortunately, I have circumvented the teapot example for the time being. So, techn...

Would you mind to elaborate on how exactly calling WinAPI functions solved this problem? I haven't solved my MinGW issue just yet, but I noticed that the CEGUI Samples for Windows used the WinAPI (WinMain, WndProc etc.) rather than the (*nix -like) main(), and so don't use the glut event processing...

Ok, I led myself down the wrong path I believe by expecting to do this for win32 completely within glut, and without having to resort to ms windows win32 api . I'm seeing that the CEGUI Samples are dipping down into wonderful (?) world of MS-Windows to do what must be done. But so close without havi...

Update: solved by re-issuing gl viewport/perspective sequence each render. Details in a post below. Ok, I am now trying to make the glut teapot appear, as before, under CEGUI in a test program, on a different platform (Win32, mingw, opengl). I've gotten everything to compile, and now my CEGUI layout...

I should clean up my minimal glut example version and update the glut example here on cegui's wiki. Alas, not allowed into the wiki with my forum account. Here's the minimal CEGUI OpenGL example. When you run it, you should see a glut teapot, with a nice CEGUI window on top. The C++ source first .....

Once I get this going it might be nice to update the Using_CEGUI_with_GLUT tutorial with the missing/changed v0.7.5 bits. I should clean up my minimal glut example version and update the glut example here on cegui's wiki. I found a another issue with key injection: was missing a key-down injection,...

Solved! :D Short answer : I needed the usual OpenGL reshape and display callbacks, and I needed to have done things the traditional glut way. So, instead of rolling our own glut event processing loop, we just set up a reshape and display function as is usually done in glut: glutReshapeFunc (myReshap...

Just to confirm one thing: the regular CEGUI samples (no teapot!) run ok locally? Or also only remotely? Hello, and thanks for such a quick response! To confirm: the CEGUI Samples (like CEGUI-0.7.5/Samples/TextDemo/ ...) work nicely both locally and remotely. It is just my "Using CEGUI with GL...

update: Solved; needed reshape,display callbacks, and usual glut event processing (see post below). I've managed to build the CEGUI 0.75 from source (on a puppy linux 4.31 devx system), and get the Samples running (all the ones I've tried, at any rate). After going through the "Using CEGUI wit...
