3D scene on FrameWindow

[CrazyEddie]

Which renderer are you using for this?

What you really want to do is render to a texture, and use that texture as the basis for a dynamically built Imageset, then use that Imageset to set the image on a StaticImage (for example) attached to your frame window. This is the general approach used by pjcast with the Ogg Theora video player application.

The Ogre renderer currently has the required support to allow you to create a CEGUI::Texture from an existing Ogre::Texture. I have yet to update the other renderers to add this support, though it's pretty simple to do it yourself if you need to.

Hopefully this puts you on the right track.

Hi,

just thought I would jump on that train. I'm trying to do the same thing, my problem is, that the Ogre::Texture object is hidden as a protected member inside Ogre::RenderTexture.
I tried searching the Ogre-Forums but couldn't find anything.

Has anybody already successfullly created a cegui imageset from a Renderable Texture? If so, could you post some code?

Thanks,

Rincewind

Edit:
Nevermind, you can access the texture by name by using Ogre::TextureManager.

If the problem is what I think it is, then there are a few places where I did this. Effectively in some widgets I disregard alpha settings of RenderableImage's and such things and just use the Alpha from the window itself.

You could even call this a bug, although it's one I knew I was putting in I may change this to offer the "correct" behaviour.
