//this code works
void resize_window()
{
float window_ratio;
if (window_height==0)window_height=1; // Prevent A Divide By Zero
glViewport(0, 0, window_width-hud_x, window_height-hud_y); // Reset The Current Viewport
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); // Select The Projection Matrix
glLoadIdentity();
window_ratio=(GLfloat)window_width/(GLfloat)window_height; // Reset The Projection Matrix
glOrtho( -1.0*zoom_level*window_ratio, 1.0*zoom_level*window_ratio, -1.0*zoom_level, 1.0+*zoom_level, -40.0, 40.0 );
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); // Select The Modelview Matrix
glLoadIdentity(); // Reset The Modelview Matrix
last_texture=-1; //no active texture
}
Big problem with glViewport

Ok, the problem is, I decided to make the scene window smaller, so I can add a HUD right and down.
hud_x=64,hud_y=49 (proportions preserved)
This code works flawlesly, except that the HUD is up, not down.
So, I changed it to glViewport(0, hud_y, window_width-hud_x, window_height);
Well, surprise surprise, now the scene is CUT on Y, instead of beign rescaled! I tried all kind of things, but I can't just make it just rescale properly, instead of cuting off the upper part...
Please, this is extremly important for me, I spent 4 hours doing various things, trying to fix it, and my head is almost blowing. Any ideas?
OpenGL uses the bottom left corner as (0, 0) by default.
If you want to change this behavior to make it like windows, reverse the top and bottom params for glOrtho.
Also, I don''t know everything about your program, but the calls to both glViewport and glOrtho look kinda wrong to me.
shouldn''t it be something like:
glViewport(hud_x, screen_height - hud_y, hud_width, hud_height);
glOrtho(0, hud_width, hud_height, 0, -1, 1); // reversed
Hope that helps.

Hi!
Just a question...why do you resize your viewport?? To add a HUD?
man...keep the viewport as it was and render all your HUD objects as overlays!
oh and btw...you should get rid of all those glFunctionCalls(..) all you need is glLoadMatrix/glMultMatrix. ;-)
Makes life much easier!!
have a good one!

Melekor, the routine I posted is for the SCENE, not for the GUI. So the scene is supposed to start in the upper left corner, and the GUI will be bottom and right. So I am doing the things correctly, but my scene is cut at the upper part. The GUI displays flawlesly, tho (I am changing the viewport as the full window, when drawing the GUI).
Acid-Chris, try to use this code, and the code I posted above.

void Enter2DMode(){ glPushAttrib(GL_LIGHTING_BIT|GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); glDisable(GL_LIGHTING); glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST); glViewport(0, 0, window_width, window_height); glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glPushMatrix(); glLoadIdentity(); glOrtho(0.0, (GLdouble)window_width, (GLdouble)window_height, 0.0, -250.0, 250.0); glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glPushMatrix(); glLoadIdentity();}void Leave2DMode(){ glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glPopMatrix(); glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glPopMatrix(); glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glPopAttrib(); glViewport(0, hud_y, window_width-hud_x, window_height); //glViewport(0, 0, window_width-hud_x, window_height-hud_y); // Reset The Current Viewport}

Fixed it!!!!!
Changed it to: glViewport(0, hud_y, window_width-hud_x, window_height-hud_y);, now it works perfectly... But I have now idea why.

Without subrtacting hud_y from window_height, the viewport will end hud_y pixels outside the window since it started hud_y pixels above the bottom. The last parameter is the height of the viewport, not the end cooridnate.

Yes, it''s clear now. For some reason thought that the last 2 values are the end coordinates, not the lenght.
