[Solved] Problem switching between multiple QGLWidgets
-
Hello,
I have made a small test application to try to figure out how to solve a problem when using two individual GLWidgets sharing the same rendering context.
I have realized that the best solution when working with multiple glwidgets is to let the glwidgets share the same rendering context through the constructor of QGLWidget otherwise I normally get an exception and the debug output "QGLBuffer::bind: buffer is not valid in the current context"
In the test I have put two glwidgets together in the main window where I try to add two different models to the glwidgets, one for each widget.
My problem:
I have successfully managed to set up the glwidgets and let them share the context but the two glwidgets are showing the same model even if I try to add a different model for the second glwidget.
Here is the code where I assign the models..
@
QGLSceneNode* sgObject = new QGLSceneNode();
QGLSceneNode* sgObject2 = new QGLSceneNode();QString modelsDir = QDir::toNativeSeparators(QDir::homePath()); QString filter = tr("Models (%1)").arg(QGLAbstractScene::supportedFormats().join(" ")); QString filename = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this, tr("Open File"), modelsDir, filter); QGLAbstractScene* m_scene = QGLAbstractScene::loadScene(filename, QString(), QString()); if(!m_scene){ QMessageBox msgBox; msgBox.setText("Problem att öppna modellen"); msgBox.setDefaultButton(QMessageBox::Ok); msgBox.exec(); return; } sgObject->addNode(m_scene->mainNode()); QString filename2 = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this, tr("Open File"), modelsDir, filter); QGLAbstractScene* m_scene2 = QGLAbstractScene::loadScene(filename, QString(), QString()); sgObject2->addNode(m_scene2->mainNode()); ui->widget->SetNode(sgObject); ui->widget_2->makeCurrent(); ui->widget_2->SetNode(sgObject2);
@
Both widgets show the first model loaded.
Any ideas ? Shall I clear the context in any way before I make the switch ?
My goal is to get a way where I can see the two glwidgets independent of each other.
Best Regards

Found the problem .. I hope though that somebody have use of my example..
The problem is that I forgot to change the variable for the second models filename..
