3wxGLCanvas is a class for displaying OpenGL graphics. There are
4wrappers for OpenGL on Windows, and GTK+ and Motif.
5
6To use this class, create a wxGLCanvas window, call \helpref{wxGLCanvas::SetCurrent}{wxglcanvassetcurrent}
7to direct normal OpenGL commands to the window, and then call \helpref{wxGLCanvas::SwapBuffers}{wxglcanvasswapbuffers}
8to show the OpenGL buffer on the window.
9
10Please note that despite deriving from wxScrolledWindow, scrolling is not enabled for this class under
11Windows.
12
13To switch wxGLCanvas support on under Windows, edit setup.h and set wxUSE\_GLCANVAS to 1. On Unix,
14pass --with-opengl to configure to compile using OpenGL or Mesa.
