OpenGL

[randomguy]

Hi, i have QT Creator installed on my Fedora 11 rawhide installation and have some kind of noobish questions (i am a beginner). I would like to place an OpenGL drawing area in a window but there is no opengl object in the widget selection panel when editing an .ui file. Is there some way to place this? I know you can code it in manually with QT but it would be easier for me to use the designer if it is possible.

is there somehting i need to do? should i not use the designer and just place widgets manually using code?

thanks for the help.

You can place a QWidget using Designer, then promote it (from the right mouse button menu) to a QGLWidget. The QWidget will then act as a placeholder in Designer.

I am a newbie in 3D visualisation, and am just trying to start. Anyway, I added the QWidget, but couldn't find a QGLWidget to promote it to.

Thanks
