Hi,

Anyone know how to change the size of the picture, so that it would fit nicely into a Window. Thanks.

The easy way would be to load the picture as a texture and put it on a quad.

Then scale the quad to match the window size.

As nexus says let opengl do the rescaling

Hi !

Are you talking about a 3D or a 2D shape, 2D is easy, 3D is a little more tricky to fit in the window, but it can be done.
