At the time, the main issue was that the new view element needed to be explicitly updated, but that should no longer be the case thanks to James' work on the setPixel() API <ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/36926486/</ref> which also means that sc::Image now has a <code>dirtyPixels()</code> API which we can reuse <ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/simgear/ci/ad3621e23b4056e1be7e8d9eb8dd4d513455add8/</ref> | At the time, the main issue was that the new view element needed to be explicitly updated, but that should no longer be the case thanks to James' work on the setPixel() API <ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/36926486/</ref> which also means that sc::Image now has a <code>dirtyPixels()</code> API which we can reuse <ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/simgear/ci/ad3621e23b4056e1be7e8d9eb8dd4d513455add8/</ref> | ||
Due to the adoption of the [[Compositor]] framework, this will probably need to reworked to be properly integrated.}} | Due to the adoption of the [[Compositor]] framework, this will probably need to reworked to be properly integrated. | ||
Furthermore, beginning in mid 2020 Julian Smith has started working on optional [[CompositeViewer Support]] so that independent scene views can be rendered. }} | |||
