| | '''OpenGL extension SGIX.fbconfig |
| | |
| | This module customises the behaviour of the |
| | OpenGL.raw.GLX.SGIX.fbconfig to provide a more |
| | Python-friendly API |
| | |
| | Overview (from the spec) |
| | |
| | This extension introduces a new way to describe the capabilities of a |
| | GLX drawable (i.e., to describe the depth of color buffer components |
| | and the type and size of ancillary buffers), removes the "similarity" |
| | requirement when making a context current to a drawable, and supports |
| | RGBA rendering to one- and two-component Windows and GLX Pixmaps. |
| | |
| | Currently GLX overloads X Visuals with information on GLX drawable |
| | capabilities. This extension defines a new construct, a GLXFBConfigSGIX, |
| | that encapsulates GLX drawable capabilities and has the following |
| | properties: |
| | |
| | - It may or may not have an associated X visual. If it does have |
| | an associated X visual then it is possible to create Windows that |
| | have the capabilities described by the GLXFBConfig. |
| | |
| | - A particular GLXFBConfig does not need to work with all GLX |
| | drawables. For example, it is possible for implementations to export |
| | GLXFBConfigs that only work with GLX pixmaps. |
| | |
| | This extension also removes the "similarity" restriction when making |
| | a context and drawable current. Instead a less restrictive requirement |
| | of "compatibility" (see definition below) is imposed. Note that when |
| | a context is created it has an associated rendering type which |
| | is either RGBA or color index. In the future we may want to remove all |
| | "similarity" and "compatibility" restrictions and allow a context to be |
| | bound to any drawable that supports its rendering type. |
| | |
| | Finally the current GLX specification requires that the GLX_RGBA visual |
| | attribute be associated only with X visual types TrueColor and DirectColor. |
| | This extension defines the semantics for doing RGBA rendering to Windows |
| | created with visuals of type PseudoColor, StaticColor, GrayScale, and |
| | StaticGray. In each of these cases, the red component is used to |
| | generate the display, and the green and blue components, if present, |
| | are ignored for display purposes. |
| | |
| | The OpenGL RGBA rendering semantics are more powerful than the OpenGL |
| | index rendering semantics. By extending the number of X visual types |
| | that can be associated with an RGBA color buffer, this extension allows |
| | RGBA rendering semantics to be used with pseudo color and gray scale |
| | displays. An especially useful application of this extension is |
| | support of one- and two-component RGBA drawables; drawables whose green, |
| | blue, and sometimes alpha components have no bitplanes. |
