GUI Elements in OpenGL?
Author
Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone had any info on drawing and interacting with GUI elements such as TextFields and buttons in OpenGL. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I''m going to be doing a few tutorials on that soon. Like how to write a complete in-game GUI/menu class (LARGE class), with a GUI similar to the one in Unreal Tournament.

Hey Trent (+ others)
IF you are interested I''d love someone to further PortaLibGUI. It started well and has all the framework - basically need widget implementors (I got bored/ran out of time).
I starte on it because
1. I wanted a C++ class hierarchy GUI in OpenGL
2. I didn''t like glGameGUI/glGUI and its development seemed to have stopped.
3. Romka''s GLI was too slow (especially mouse overs, button pushes)
4. I never checked out GLUI (GLUT GUI) - any experiences?
Love to hear back. The partial code is in PortaLib 0.3.0

Cheers!

glDruid or DruidGL once had an OpenGL GUI - he was hosted on GameDev.net - but that was well over a year ago. It was a good little library if I remember correctly. Maybe you guys should do a google for him

Why google it if it''s still there?

There you can still download ''glGUI release 6'' and other things!

Like I said, dev. seemed to have stopped and where I said I didn''t like it - it''s more that it wasn''t what I was looking for. Its a good widget library, but I was more into developing a windowing system.
PLGUI is something I''d really like to finish, but I don''t have time
