Re: [NewIO-developers] OpenGL & NewIO

[Jason R. <ja...@ne...>]

I would have to concur.  I can put forth a bit of effort in terms of linking
certain functional primitives to higher-level in addition.  Things like
color blending, certain animation affects - all of those are sort of OpenGL
native except for they take say five function calls (which 3 or 4 usually
just take standard defaults) -- I think a few of them could be made into a
single function.   I'm willing to give that bit a whirl.
