[PyOpenGL-Users] Attempt to retrieve context when no valid context

[Mads I. <mp...@co...>]

Hi,

I am running an app in an PyQt QGLWidget. If the window is minimized, and
the method for rendering the object that should be displayed is called, I
get the error 'OpenGL.error.Error: Attempt to retrieve context when no
valid context' (included below), when glColorPointerd() is called.

Is there:

* a way to check whether a valid context is set?
* force the context to be set?

Best regards,

Mads
