In the previous blog post, we talked about the importance of pixels and their indivisible nature, the way we deal with that in the icon area and introduced the concept of PPI dependable UIs – all this to have truly scalable graphics in QML. We used the BorderImage element to illustrate how an element could […]
This article concludes our series on what is new in Qt 5.1 with respect to OpenGL. Earlier articles in this series are available at: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 More shader stages In Qt 5.0 the QOpenGLShader and QOpenGLShaderProgram classes only had support for Vertex and Fragment shaders. Qt 5.1 will include […]
This article continues our series on what is new in Qt 5.1 with respect to OpenGL. Earlier articles in this series are available at: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 OpenGL Debug Output The traditional way to debug OpenGL is to call glGetError() after every GL function call. This is tedious, clutters up our code, […]
This article continues our series on what is new in Qt 5.1 with respect to OpenGL. If you haven’t already seen them, you may be interested in reading Part 1 and Part 2. Timer Queries OpenGL on the desktop exposes a very useful tool in the shape of timer query objects. These can be used […]
Qt has QOpenGLBuffer to manage OpenGL buffer objects like per-vertex attribute data and element index buffers. OpenGL also has a container type call Vertex Array Objects managing vertex buffer objects.
Firtst in a blog series that shows how to use OpenGL with Qt 5. We shall take a quick look at Qt’s historical support for OpenGL and then describe the first batch of new features in Qt 5.1 that enhance Qt’s OpenGL
