Thanks, I'll look into it. I have tried OpenGL with
simpledisplay but I cannot draw to the window. I assume other
drawing methods are required?
Yeah, you have to use the OpenGL functions instead of my painter
functions.
If so, I can use gamehelpers.d to do the drawing of the images?
Yeah, the OpenGlTexture class can help with it. You can construct
it with a TrueColorImage (readPng gives MemoryImage which you can
call .getAsTrueColorImage on to get one)
Then the OpenGlTexture has a draw method which you can call from
inside the redrawOpenGlScene method. OpenGL coordinates are
different than desktop, but the `create2dWindow` method in
gamehelpers.d will create one with a matrix that matches out.
So the function might look like:
SimpleWindow window = create2dWindow("your title", width, height);
auto image = new
OpenGlTexture(readPng(your_png_file).getAsTrueColorImage));
window.redrawOpenGlScene = {
image.draw(x, y);
};
window.eventLoop(....);
Use window.redrawOpenGlSceneNow(); in the event loop to make it
redraw.
