Winform (IrrlichtLime) controling window

Post by cra0kalo »

Hello everyone,

I recently decided to use Irrlicht for something I'm working on in c# .NET and I have been using the winform example as a base of what I'm trying to do however I have ran into an issue.

I'm trying to allow the user input onto the winform so the user can rotate around this sphere object however it seems like input doesn't work unless its rendering from the big window. Can someone guide me to fixing this, someone I talked to suggested I make a new control for Irrlicht but I have no idea how I would do that.

Yes, Irrlicht doesn't get any input if its uses WindowHandle for device creation. You need to send message manually. Something like described in the post here http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/v ... 40#p277740
