Slick Forums

Hello to all.
I am newbie in TWL development and World Wind so I am facing some difficulties trying to make that both work together. To be more precise, I need to develop a visual attractive and very rich user interface with an area dedicated to map navigation and I was thinking in using TWL (Java widget API based on OpenGL) to develop the GUI and World Wind for the map area.
I haven't had any problems in embedding World Wind in Swing components but I see that it's not so easy when trying to do the same with TWL componentes.

Does anyone know if this integration is possible? In that case, how?

A lot of thanks in advance.

If your not using Slick then it a bit simpler since you can just have TWL handle all the input. Just use LWJGL directly. Something like this would be a good start: http://wiki.l33tlabs.org/bin/view/TWL/G ... d+with+TWL

I'm not sure how the rendering NASA World Wind works, but either do it yourself and have TWL rendered on top of it - or if you can render it to an image or what not- then use it within TWL.

If you look at the main demo, he just has an image in a scroll box: http://twl.l33tlabs.org/#demo or you could also just it as the desktop background or render it yourself directly in OpenGL.

Is Nasa World Wind built on JOGL or LWJGL? If it doesn't support LWJGL, you might be out of luck (unless you plan to write a JOGL renderer for TWL).

FengGUI might be an option for JOGL, though...
