RE: The speed of the application is slow when we have little heavy graphics on the drawing area.. Please help



Title: Message
Rahul,
 
    I have CC'd the mailing list, just so that if I give incorrect information, someone will correct it for you.  Anyway, I think you can still use GTK for the GUI, and still make use of X calls directly.  This may be your best bet.  I know (as I stated in my previous email) that GTK's graphics handling routines are SLOOOOW, so the answer to rendering 3D images to the screen probably does not lie within this library.  Like I said, though, you can always use more than one library.  At least I would assume you could.  Does anybody have a solution?
 
Good luck, and keep us posted
Tom Cameron

Hi
    I am using OpenGL library COSMO3D to display the graphics and the  grphics is displayed on the drawing area of the GTKWindow.....I am not using the GTK functions to render the graphics.....
    However I am amused by seeing the poor speed of GTK drawing area which is unable to render the surface of the graphics fastly..
    Can you through some light on it. I have already gone very far with the development and now I can not cut GTK and choose another Front end developer.
 
Thanks a lot for your help.
Regards
Rahul Karurkar

Hello,
 
Are you actually using GTK functions to display the graphics, or does the OpenGL library actually display on the screen also?  (versus just copying to a memory structure, etc.)  If you're using GTK functions...they are sloooooow.  To say the least.  This is actually a common complaint.  It has to do with how GTK copies pixbufs, etc. to X.  Essentially, it does it pixel by pixel, which is REALLY slow.
 
Anyway, good luck!

Hi all
 
    I have been working on this problem since long but could not get the result.
    I am using GTK1.2 and Cosmo3D(a opengl library). I have mapped Cosmo3D window onto Gtk drawing area.
    The speed I get with the application seems slow. When I render the surfaces with graphics the application goes slow and even menu click pops up menu after many seconds......which is really inefficient.
Can anybody tell me how to maximise the speed of the application with regard to the graphics rendering on gtk drawing area rendering.
 
    I feel I must have missed something in mapping or There can be something which increases the speed of graphics rendering.
The plateform I am working on is IRIX (SGI). So I expected to have much more speedier but It becomes slow unexpectedly when graphics come on the drawing area.
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Regards
Rahul
