RE: [PyMOL] Problem with pml script and png command

[Warren D. <wa...@de...>]

Greg,

Actually, this a fundamental problem with the way the GLUT library works =
--
it uses callbacks instead of events, which causes refresh issues on =
Windows.
The problem has nothing to do with Python -- PyMOL is all C when it =
comes to
OpenGL.
 =20
Suffice it to say that we are aware of and working on finding a solution =
to
this and a number of other problems related to this increasingly =
obsolete
cross-platform library.  If we stick with GLUT, then we'll probably need =
to
build an event queue layer between GLUT and PyMOL.

Cheers,
Warren
