Pixel formats
The UI allows you to control the window system's OpenGL interface with a cross-platform set of pixel format specifiers:
Pixel format attributes
Pixel formats can be requested using these attributes:
pixel-format
<pixel-format>
( world attributes -- pixel-format )
pixel-format-attribute
If a request for a set of pixel format attributes cannot be satisfied, an error is thrown:
invalid-pixel-format-attributes
( world attributes -- * )
Pixel formats are requested as part of opening a window for a
world
. These generics can be overridden on
world
subclasses to control pixel format selection:
world-pixel-format-attributes
( world -- attributes )
check-world-pixel-format
( world pixel-format -- )
