Detailed Description

OpenGL-aware WinForms control. The WinForms designer will always call the default constructor. Inherit from this class and call one of its specialized constructors to enable antialiasing or custom GraphicsModes.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

OpenTK.GLControl.GLControl ( )

Constructs a new instance.

OpenTK.GLControl.GLControl ( GraphicsMode mode )

Constructs a new instance with the specified GraphicsMode.

Parameters

mode	The OpenTK.Graphics.GraphicsMode of the control.

OpenTK.GLControl.GLControl	(	GraphicsMode	mode,
		int	major,
		int	minor,
		GraphicsContextFlags	flags
	)

Constructs a new instance with the specified GraphicsMode.

Parameters

mode	The OpenTK.Graphics.GraphicsMode of the control.
major	The major version for the OpenGL GraphicsContext.
minor	The minor version for the OpenGL GraphicsContext.
flags	The GraphicsContextFlags for the OpenGL GraphicsContext.

Member Function Documentation

override void OpenTK.GLControl.Dispose ( bool disposing )

protected

Clean up any resources being used.

Parameters

disposing true if managed resources should be disposed; otherwise, false.

Bitmap OpenTK.GLControl.GrabScreenshot ( )

Grabs a screenshot of the frontbuffer contents.

Returns: A System.Drawing.Bitmap, containing the contents of the frontbuffer.

Exceptions

OpenTK.Graphics.GraphicsContextException Occurs when no OpenTK.Graphics.GraphicsContext is current in the calling thread.

void OpenTK.GLControl.MakeCurrent ( )

Makes the underlying this GLControl current in the calling thread. All OpenGL commands issued are hereafter interpreted by this GLControl.

override void OpenTK.GLControl.OnHandleCreated ( EventArgs e )

protected

Raises the HandleCreated event.

Parameters

e Not used.

override void OpenTK.GLControl.OnHandleDestroyed ( EventArgs e )

protected

Raises the HandleDestroyed event.

Parameters

e Not used.

override void OpenTK.GLControl.OnPaint ( PaintEventArgs e )

protected

Raises the System.Windows.Forms.Control.Paint event.

Parameters

e	A System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs that contains the event data.

override void OpenTK.GLControl.OnParentChanged ( EventArgs e )

protected

Raises the ParentChanged event.

Parameters

e	A System.EventArgs that contains the event data.

override void OpenTK.GLControl.OnResize ( EventArgs e )

protected

Raises the Resize event. Note: this method may be called before the OpenGL context is ready. Check that IsHandleCreated is true before using any OpenGL methods.

Parameters

e	A System.EventArgs that contains the event data.

void OpenTK.GLControl.SwapBuffers ( )

Swaps the front and back buffers, presenting the rendered scene to the screen.

Property Documentation
