To subscribers of the xforms list from Dan Gutchess <dgutches@cs.bu.edu> :

Hello, I am having trouble using orthographic projections with the
glcanvas. Although perspective projections using glFrustum() seem to
work, I can't seem to draw anything when I initialize with the following
code (in my expose event):

glViewport(0, 0, w, h);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
gluOrtho2D(0,w,0,h);

glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
glTranslatef(0.375, 0.375, 0.0);
/* refresh */
idle_cb(0, 0);

I am new to Xforms and OpenGL, so I may be doing something stupid. Can
anyone help? If you have a working program that uses gluOrtho2D, could
you please send me a small sample?

Thanks!
