mini-scene-in-a-GUI control

Post by gbjbaanb »

Hi.

I have a feature request: a GUI control that contains a scene that can have elements selected.

Imagine a GUI 'properties' panel that appears with a character in it, with another panel with a backpack that you can use to drag and drop between the 2 panels. Do you think that the GUI elements in Irrlicht are suitable (ie designed) for such a system, or would it be better to create this kind of overlay in the scene rendering, (perhaps using a custom scene node)?

any ideas or suggestions weclome.

thanks, Andy.

Or a more generic way: A GUI control which has it's own ISceneManager. Would be possible.
