Gui and sdl

SDL Development
1

I’m currently using SDL/OpenGL for a modelviewer. I’m to the point where I
really need to start working on a gui. What toolkits do people here
recommend. I’d really like to use something like gtk2. I’ve seen the hack
of putting and sdl window inside a gtk1 program, but it didn’t look like it
would be possible to do what I need with that hack. I’d really like to keep
using SDL as it is my favorite library to use. Any feedback would be great.

Thanks

There are SDL guis available but it all depends on what you need. If you
don’t need anything complicated, might as well just get mouse clicks
yourself, check against any registered widgets and perform their
callbacks if clicked. But assuming you need something with more
complexity than that, I hear ParaGUI is a good SDL one.On Fri, 2003-03-07 at 06:48, Mark D’voo wrote:

I’m trying to merge both QT and SDL for such need.
Obviously the GUI can no be diplayed inside the SDL window.

I had heard good things about paragui. I also heard they were having some
problems lately. Is it going down, or is it usable enough for a commerical
product?On Friday 07 March 2003 5:15 pm, Christopher Thielen wrote:

ParaGUI is used in commercial projects/apps since it’s been released.
If you’ve heard we’re having problems,… Right. Missing contributors,
testers, doc writers, …
