Re: [gef3d-dev] Rendering SWT as OpenGL Texture

Hi,

So how did you implement those overlays? Maybe you can point me to an implementation example in the gef3d source code?
Actually this is standard GEF and some features also work(ed) with
GEF3D. For example, ToolTips are SWT based overlays, and they also work
with GEF3D although we do not handle them in any way in GEF3D. This is
why they are placed at the wrong location. Another example of this
overlay technique used in GEF is DirectEdit. In GEF, labels can be
directly edited. While this looks as if the label is edited by
GEF/Draw2D, it actually is an SWT widget placed on top of the label. In
2D, this trick is not visible, it looks as if the label is edited.
Actually, this "trick" also worked in GEF3D, and I'm a little bit
surprised that it isn't working anymore. However, you can now directly
edit text in GEF3D, although we haven't implemented that yet. I've made
a little movie showing overlays and the direct edit stuff:
