i am writing an image viewer that displays images as tiled textures.
In my program, i can have multiple windows.
Everything works fine when i am using only one window.
However, when i load an image in another window the texture is just a solid square (the color that i have set for drawing lines).
i assume that i am not setting something for this second window, but i’m not sure what that might be… it SHOULD be calling all of the same gl functions… but i guess it isn’t.
What might cause a solid color instead of a texture?
Do you have different contexts, do the contexts share textures?
For each OpenGL context you need to rebind textures unless you explicitly try to share resources between contexts.
that was it! i was creating the textures
dynamically THEN switching the contexts and
trying to draw them.
thanks dorbie!!
