I though it was interesting to have such a freedom to create a GUI element without having to deal with all the application stuff. Maybe there is a better way to do this but I didnt found it. I am concerned that maybe the wx app is still running in the background…<\/p>\n
I also wanted to render a little HUD but I know from previous work how hard it is to draw text on a OpenGL application, so I just used the GLUT options to raster text, it is slow and ugly, but it is just 3 lines of code without addind more dependencies. The only problem is that it doesnt allow you to change the font-size, but I don’t care.<\/p>\n
