Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] Tkinter OpenGL Context problem?

[<il...@ya...>]

hi,

I still haven't managed to compile pyopengl properly
on windows yet, so I can't really help.  I haven't got
microsoft VC, and mingw is not being nice to me ;) 
I'll see if I can try it out on a friends XP computer,
maybe later today or tommorow.

Unfortunately pyopengl 1.5.5, and 2.0.0.44 are
different in a few areas.  If you need to get your
program working quickly, perhaps try uninstalling 2.x
and install 1.5.x

Is this error happening with the tk demo programs? 
These may be helpful in seeing the differences between
the two versions.


Anyone got a list of differences between 1.5.5, and
2.0.0.44?  Maybe comparing the function
names/arguments would be useful.  Although the
behaviour of some functions is different too.
