<h2><a name="tclfuncs">Togl Tcl command</a></h2>
<p>
The togl command creates a new Tk widget, a Tcl command,
whose name is <var>pathName</var>.
This command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget.
<blockquote>
<code>togl <var>pathName</var> [<a href="#options">options</a>]</code>
</blockquote>
If no options are given, a 400 by 400 pixel RGB window is created.
This command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget.
<h2><a name="toglfuncs">Togl widget commands</a></h2>
The following commands are possible for an existing togl widget:
<h3><a name="configuration">Configuration commands</a></h3>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> cget <var>-option</var></code>
<dd>
Return current value of given configuration option.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt>
<code><var>pathName</var> configure</code><br>
<code><var>pathName</var> configure <var>-option</var></code>
<dd>
If no <var>option</var> is given,
then return information about
all configuration <a href="#options">options</a>.
Otherwise,
return configuration information for given <var>option</var>.
All configuration information consists of five values:
the configuration option name,
the option database name,
the option database class,
the default value,
and the current value.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> configure <var>-option</var> <var>value</var></code>
<dd>
Reconfigure a Togl widget.
<var>option</var> may be any one of the options listed below.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> contexttag</code>
<dd>
Returns an integer that represents the context tag.
All Togl widgets with the same context tag share display lists.
</dl>
<h3><a name="extensions">Extensions command</a></h3>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> extensions</code>
<dd>
Returns a list of OpenGL extensions available. For example:
<blockquote><pre><code>
if {[lsearch [<i>pathName</i> extensions] GL_EXT_bgra] != -1]} {
....
}
</code></pre></blockquote>
would check if the GL_EXT_bgra extension were supported.
</dl>
<h3><a name="rendering">Rendering commands</a></h3>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> postredisplay</code>
<dd>
Cause the displaycommand callback to be called
the next time the event loop is idle.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> render</code>
<dd>
Causes the displaycommand callback to be called for <var>pathName</var>.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> swapbuffers</code>
<dd>
Causes front/back buffers to be swapped if in double buffer mode.
Fix various typos Found via `codespell -q 3 -S ./external_dependencies/pybind11 -L alledges,allright,ane,anormal,ans,apoints,ba,boxs,cancle,childs,co-ordinate,co-ordinates,daty,enty,filld,hel,identifyable,ist,linz,lod,ned,nd,selt,statics,suround,thev,thist,thisy,timere,upto,wel`
2022-03-26 03:21:48 +05:00
And flushes the OpenGL command buffer if in single buffer mode.
merge ttk branch to master
2016-02-08 19:53:16 +05:00
(So this is appropriate to call after every frame is drawn.)
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> makecurrent</code>
<dd>
Make the widget specified by <var>pathName</var> and its OpenGL context
the current ones.
This is implicitly called before any callback command is invoked.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> copycontextto <var>toPathName</var> <var>mask</var></code>
<dd>
Copy a subset of the OpenGL context state from <var>pathName</var> to
<var>toPathName</var> according the given mask.
The mask is an integer corresponding to the same values as
<a href="http://www.opengl.org/sdk/docs/man/xhtml/glPushAttrib.xml">
glPushAttrib</a>.
</dl>
<h3><a name="image">Image commands</a></h3>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> takephoto <var>imagename</var></code>
<dd>
Copy the contents of the togl window into the given Tk photo image.
Transparency values are copied and should be fully opaque for windows
without alpha bitplanes.
</dl>
<h3><a name="font">Font commands</a></h3>
<p>
These functions provide an interface to the simple bitmap font capabilities
that every OpenGL implementation provides.
Better font support is found in other packages, <i>e.g.</i>,
<a href="http://www.tcl3d.org/">Tcl3D</a>
or with different <a href="capi.html#font">C APIs</a>.
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> loadbitmapfont <var>font</var></code>
<dd>
<var>font</var> can be any of font descriptions listed in the Tk
<a href="http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/font.htm#M13">font</a> command.
It returns a togl font object.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> unloadbitmapfont <var>toglfont</var></code>
<dd>
Releases the OpenGL resources needed by the <var>toglfont</var>.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> write <var>toglfont</var> [-pos <var>xyzw</var>] [-color <var>rgba</var>] <var>string</var></code>
<dd>
Write the given <var>string</var> in the given <var>toglfont</var>,
optionally at a particular position, <var>xyzw</var>
and color, <var>rgba</var>.
<var>xyzw</var> is either a 2, 3, or 4 element list of numbers.
<var>rgba</var> is either a 3 or 4 element list of numbers.
</dl>
<h3><a name="overlay">Overlay Commands</a></h3>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> uselayer <var>layer</var></code>
<dd>
This is a variation on the <code>makecurrent</code> command
that makes the overlay OpenGL context current
if <var>layer</var> is 2
and makes the normal OpenGL context current
if <var>layer</var> is 1.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> showoverlay</code>
<dd>
Turn on drawing in the overlay planes.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> hideoverlay</code>
<dd>
Turn off drawing in the overlay planes.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> postredisplayoverlay</code>
<dd>
Cause the overlay OpenGL context to be redrawn the next time
the Tcl event loop is idle.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> renderoverlay</code>
<dd>

</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> existsoverlay</code>
<dd>
Return true if togl widget has overlay planes.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> ismappedoverlay</code>
<dd>
Return true if overlay planes are shown.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> getoverlaytransparentvalue</code>
<dd>
Return overlay plane's transparent pixel value.
</dl>
<h3><a name="stereo cmds">OpenGL (Stereo) Commands</a></h3>
These commands exist to support stereo rendering.
Just replace select OpenGL calls with the Togl versions
and stereo rendering will magically work. And don't forget
to update the <a href="#stereo options">stereo options</a>.
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> drawbuffer <var>mode</var></code>
<dd>
Replaces calls to
<a href="http://www.opengl.org/sdk/docs/man/xhtml/glDrawBuffer.xml">
glDrawBuffer</a>.
The mode is an integer.
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> clear <var>mask</var></code>
<dd>
Replaces calls to
<a href="http://www.opengl.org/sdk/docs/man/xhtml/glClear.xml">

</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code><var>pathName</var> numeyes</code>
<dd>
Returns numbers of eyes &mdash; basically,
2 for stereo views and 1 for all others,
except some stereo views only need one eye from OpenGL.
</dl>
<h2><a name="options">Togl configuration options</a></h2>
Togl's configuration options can be separated into several categories:
geometry, pixel format, and other.
The pixel format related options can only be set at widget creation time.
The other options can be changed dynamically
by the <code><var>pathName</var> configure</code> command (see above).

You'd think these values would be given in physical units,
but there's no single right way to convert to viewing coordinates
from physical units.
So if you're willing to use Tk's idea of the horizontal size of a
window in millimeters (not always correct),
you could convert the average eye separation of 63 mm
to your viewing coordinates, and use that value as the eye separation.
