Drawing standard widgets using a custom paint engine

[high_flyer]

A lot of brainstorming... pitty we didn't come to an acceptable solution.

This is one of the great things about QtCenter :-)
Regarding an "acceptable" solution - it depends what you define as acceptable.
I was looking for a responsive gui objects, drawn with OpenGL.
I did manage to have a QPushButton to draw its self in an OpenGL context, but is was just a "shadow" of a button, it did not react to input (obviously).
But as I said, this should be possible acourding to the talk from DevDays.

God, I missed that chat

Yes, the problem with this, is that you wait with 10 other guys after the presentation, and the guy is really stressed out, so he answerd REAL quick both because he is stressed out, and, because he knows it like the back of his hand, so its really hard to keep up, since you are both trying to understand AND remember...
Unfortunately, I didn't deal with this issue after DevDays so I forgot exactly what he told me.
But, at least we know it is definetly possible.

You can ask again this year

Good point! :-)
Will you (and Jacek) come this year too?

Will you (and Jacek) come this year too?

Probably yes, unless there happens to be a problem with a need of being in two places at the same time.

Ahh... that is no problem at all, just start a new (execution) thread!

There is a single processing unit, so one still can't do two things (separated by a distance of few hundred kilometres) at the same time. Context switching in this case is really expensive in both terms of time and money.

But let's not hijack the thread If you want to talk about it, start answering emails
