DESCRIPTION

The Agar sdlgl driver provides an interface to the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) library version 1.2, and renders GUI elements as OpenGL primitives and managed textures.

Using AG_InitVideoSDL(3) as opposed to AG_InitGraphics(3), it is possible to attach Agar to an existing SDL display surface. If the SDL surface has the SDL_OPENGL flag set, Agar selects the sdlgl driver automatically.

INHERITANCE HIERARCHY

AG_Driver(3)-> AG_DriverSw(3)-> AG_DriverSDLGL.

EXAMPLES

AG_InitGraphics("sdlgl(width=640:height=480)");
AG_InitGraphics("sdlgl(width=60%:height=80%)");
AG_InitGraphics("sdlgl(bgColor=0/120/120)");
AG_InitGraphics("sdlgl(out=%08d.jpg:outFirst=10)");
AG_InitGraphics("sdlgl(depth=64:stereo)");

AG_InitVideoSDL(an_existing_SDL_screen, 0);

OPTIONS

debugCapture GL_DEBUG_OUTPUT errors.
stereoRequest a stereoscopic visual.
widthWidth in pixels, in % of available desktop space, or "auto".
heightHeight in pixels, in % of available desktop space, or "auto".
depthDepth in bits per pixel, or "auto".
fpsMaxLimit GUI refresh rate in frames/second (default = 60fps).
outDump video frames to JPEG or PNG image files. The filename path may include a printf-style (with frame number as argument). For example, %08d.jpg will output frames to 00000001.jpg, 00000002.jpg, etc.
outFirstOverride first frame number (default = 0).
outLastTerminate application after # frames have been rendered.
bgColorSolid background color specified as "R/G/B", from "0/0/0" (black) to "255/255/255" (white).
!bgPopupDisable the right-click background popup menu (which includes, notably the list of active windows).
jpegQualIf exporting to JPEG, set quality factor (100% = best).
jpegDCTIf exporting to JPEG, specify DCT method ("islow" for slow but accurate integer method, "ifast" for fast but less accurate integer method, or "float" for floating point method).
