(Said Max Horn on the SDL mailing list...) Hi folks, based on Eric Wing's patch, I created the attached patch which fixes the OpenGL coordinate inversion bug in SDL. It works fine over here on 10.3 with Ryan's test program (which I also attached). There is another change in it: I removed the "- 1" in the two lines using CGDisplayPixelsHigh()... while I understand from a logical point of view why they *should* be correct, I checked the actual values computed that way, and they were off-by-one. After removing the " - 1", the returned mouse coordinates are correct. I checked this by moving the mouse to the screen top/bottom in fullscreen mode, BTW. With the change, the proper values 0 and 479 are returned (in 640x480 mode). Sam, you may still want to test on 10.1, it's very simple using Ryan's minimal test code :-) Cheers, Max (Here is the reproduction case for revision history's sake...) /* * To compile: * gcc -o test test.c `sdl-config --cflags` `sdl-config --libs` -framework OpenGL * * --ryan. */ #include <stdio.h> #include "SDL.h" #include "SDL_opengl.h" int main(int argc, char **argv) { Uint32 flags = SDL_OPENGL /* | SDL_FULLSCREEN */; SDL_Surface *screen; SDL_Event event; int done = 0; GLfloat ratio; SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO); SDL_ShowCursor(0); if ((argv[1]) && (strcmp(argv[1], "--grab") == 0)) SDL_WM_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON); screen = SDL_SetVideoMode(640, 480, 0, flags); if (!screen) return(42); ratio = ((GLfloat) screen->w) / ((GLfloat) screen->h); glClearColor( 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f ); glClearDepth( 1.0f ); glEnable( GL_DEPTH_TEST ); glDepthFunc( GL_LEQUAL ); glViewport( 0, 0, screen->w, screen->h); glMatrixMode( GL_PROJECTION ); glLoadIdentity(); gluPerspective( 45.0f, ratio, 0.1f, 100.0f ); glMatrixMode( GL_MODELVIEW ); glLoadIdentity(); glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); SDL_GL_SwapBuffers(); // eh, close enough. #define MAX_X 6.12 #define MAX_Y 4.50 while (!done) { int x, y; GLfloat glx, gly; if (!SDL_WaitEvent(&event)) break; switch (event.type) { case SDL_KEYUP: if (event.key.keysym.sym == SDLK_ESCAPE) done = 1; break; } SDL_GetMouseState(&x, &y); glx = ((((GLfloat) x) / ((GLfloat) screen->w)) - 0.5f) * MAX_X; gly = ((((GLfloat) y) / ((GLfloat) screen->h)) - 0.5f) * MAX_Y; glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); glLoadIdentity(); glTranslatef(glx,-gly,-6.0f); glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES); glColor3f(1,0,0); glVertex3f( 0.00f, 0.25f, 0.00f); glColor3f(0,1,0); glVertex3f(-0.25f, -0.25f, 0.00f); glColor3f(0,0,1); glVertex3f( 0.25f, -0.25f, 0.00f); glEnd(); SDL_GL_SwapBuffers(); } SDL_Quit(); return(0); } /* end of test.c ... */

 ========================
  Using SDL with PicoGUI
 ========================

- Originally contributed by Micah Dowty <micahjd@users.sourceforge.net>

PicoGUI is a scalable GUI system with a unique architecture, primarily focused
on scalability to various embedded systems. You can find more information
including a FAQ at http://picogui.org

To use the patch:

  1. When compiling, add the "--enable-video-picogui" switch to ./configure

  2. When running your program, ensure that the picogui driver for SDL
     is in use by setting the SDL_VIDEODRIVER environment variable 
     to "picogui".

  3. The program must also be linked to the C client library for PicoGUI
     (libpgui.so). If the program is being compiled with a patched SDL 
     installed this should be done automatically. If you want to use an
     existing binary with PicoGUI, you can set the LD_PRELOAD environment
     variable to the path of your libpgui.so file.

Capabilities:

  So far only basic functionality is provided on true color (linear16/24/32)
  devices. Accessing a memory mapped bitmap, updating the display, and handling
  mouse/keyboard input. This functionality has been tested with several
  applications, including mplayer, Xine, sldroids, and Abuse.

TODO list:

  - YUV overlays will be helpful for watching video on set top boxes or other
    embedded devices that have some graphics acceleration hardware

  - Account for rotated bitmap storage in pgserver

  - Support for hiding or changing the cursor

  - The display should be centered when the SDL application is smaller
    than the PicoGUI panel

  - Fullscreen or any other special modes

  - Support for indexed and grayscale modes

  - Probably much more...
