Original email from Frederic at start of thread:
"he patch attached, made from r10068, fix two things, in other of importance :
- the selected cursor is never shown ( second change in file ). Only the left arrow is always displayed.
- remove the arbitrary ( in my sense ) limitation that the user cannot choose a cursor with the same shape that one used when resizing the window. This limitation doesn't exist for X11, and we have a diverging behaviour there ( first change in file ). Flightgear use the LeftRightCursor in look around mode."
Follow up email from Frederic (with changes that finally made it into this check in:
"I've just tested Mark's suggestion and it works perfectly, even when the
cursor goes to the border then come back inside the window.
But his patch doesn't seem to be based on the last revision of the
files, or at least not on the trunk, and there are more changes than
expected in them, including some loss from the previous patches.
The patch attached is based on r10068 of
src/osgViewer/GraphicsWindowWin32.cpp and r10067 of
include/osgViewer/api/Win32/GraphicsWindowWin32"

The change is source compatible with current osg code and will not affect current users, it simply adds an additional parameter to the GraphicsWindowWin32::WindowData struct constructor and defaults to the current behavior.
Attached are the files "include/osgViewer/api/Win32/GraphicsWindowWin32" and "src/osgViewer/GraphicsWindowWin32.cpp" with my changes, based on svn revision 10045. In addition, I have provided an svn patch file with the same changes for your convenience.
I have discussed the matter with my supervisor, and agreed that my company makes no copyright claim over this extremely trivial change (or to put it another way, we assign copyright to the open scene graph community.)"
set to off. But could be activated/decativated via CMake as well as system
environment variable. I also modified src\osgViewer\CMakeLists.txt to turn
off this workaround by default as suggested."
get an excess Tab key report when switching back to an OSG
application (usually FlightGear :-). Although KDE has consumed
the Tab, it's sometimes still in the XKeymapEvent's key_vector,
and followed by a Tab KeyRelease event.
Avoid this artifact by
- asking for a "fresh" keymap (via XQueryKeymap()), rather than
using the unreliable(?) XKeymapEvent's key_vector, and by
- flushing all key events on focus-in (to avoid the KeyRelease)
After Super-press, Tab-press, Super-release, Tab-release (note
the wrong release order!) I still get an extra Tab event. But
this is not surprising and not exactly wrong either. Also it's
hard to avoid, as we can't see what happened to the keyboard
before we regained focus.

key, but it didn't pick up the initial state. So, if NumLock was on for
the OS at startup (LED on), it was still off for OSG. And the first
keypress turned the LED off, and NumLock on for OSG. The attached fix
picks up the state on every FocusIn, just like it was done in the last
commits for CapsLock. The difference is, that the NumLock mask isn't
standardized (e.g. 0x10 for Linux, and 0x80 for AIX), so we have to do
a reverse lookup (::rescanModifierMapping()).
Note that I could not reproduce the problem on my system, but someone
else confirmed it twice on his, and the patch fixed it for him.

It sets osgGA's keymask when restoring keys on FocusIn, according
to the state values of XKeyEvent and XCrossingEvent. (These are
the only source for X11's current capslock state that avoids
pulling in the XKB extension.)

The win32 pbuffer implementation returned an error unless both the
WGL_ARB_pbuffer and the WGL_ARB_render_texture functions were present.
This was too restrictive, as a pbuffer can usefully be created without
render-to-texture, e.g. for use with glReadPixels. The osg 1.2/Producer
pbuffers worked without RTT, and osgUtil::RenderStage has all the code to
handle both RTT and non-RTT pbuffers, doing a read and copy in the
latter case.
With these changes I have successfully tested the osgprerender example
on a graphics card which supports RTT, and one which doesn't. Plus
tested in my own application.
In order to aid diagnostics I have also added more function status
return checks, and associated error messages. I have included the win32
error text in all error messages output. And there were some errors
with multi-threaded handling of "bind to texture" and a temporary window
context which I have corrected.
These is one (pre-existing) problem with multi-threaded use of pbuffers
in osgViewer & osgprerender, which I have not been able to fix. A win32
device context (HDC) can only be destroyed from the thread that created
it. The pbuffers for pre-render cameras are created in
osgUtil::RenderStage::runCameraSetUp, from the draw thread. But
closeImplementation is normally invoked from the destructor in the main
application thread. With the additional error messages I have added,
osgprerender will now output a couple of warnings from
osgViewer::PixelBufferWin32::closeImplementation() at exit, after
running multi-threaded on windows. I think that is a good thing, to
highlight the problem. I looked into fixing it in osgViewer::Renderer &
osgUtil::RenderStage, but it was too involved for me. My own
application requirements are only single-threaded.
Unrelated fix - an uninitialised variable in
osg::GraphicsThread::FlushDeletedGLObjectsOperation().

remain in pressed state after revealing, even if they are no
longer pressed on the keyboard. This can have bad effects,
especially if the stuck keys are modifier keys. One has to
press and release the stuck keys again to reset the wrong state.
The fix keeps track of all key presses and releases. On FocusOut
and UnmapNotify it releases all keys that are in pressed state,
and on KeymapNotify (following a FocusIn), it sets the currently
pressed keys again. To avoid confusion in the OSG-using application
normal keys are always reported released /before/ and pressed
/after/ modifier keys.
As current key states are returned as char[32] keymap by
XQueryKeymap and XKeymapEvent, this format is also used to
recognize modifier keys and for maintaining the current
internal key state. Functions to set/clear/query bits in
such a keymap are added.
The patch was extensively tested with osgkeyboard and
FlightGear under KDE and fvwm2. It was not tested on a
Xinerama setup or with multiple windows, but as _eventDisplay
is used throughout, there should be no problems. The patch also
makes the following changes:
- removes old and obsolete handling of modifier keys in ::adaptKey().
This wasn't only unused, but also wrong (and for that reason commented
out in revision 7066). The modifier states are actually handled
in ./src/osgGA/EventQueue.cpp (EventQueue::keyPress/keyRelease).
- fixes some spelling"
pbuffer functions or exactly ask for the extensions we need to call the
apropriate glx extension functions for and around pbuffers extensions.
The glx 1.3 version of this functios are prefered. If this is not pressent we
are looking for the glx extensions and check for them.
Prevously we just used some mix of the glx 1.3 functions or the extension
functions without making sure that this extension is present.

carbon-implementation of GraphicsWindow. Now you can use an AGLDrawable

Changes from Robert Osfield, changed std::cout to osg::notify(osg::INFO)
"This is a fix for the issue reported by Anders a week ago (see \u201c[osg-users] BUG?: mouse coordinate changes after window move\u201d discussion thread on Sept. 20). The issue was that the initial implementation added a few months back was not converting the window coordinates to client-area coordinates resulting in a slight offset each time a decorated window was moved (caused by the window border). This was also causing windows to move out of their assigned screen."
and
"Attached is a fix for the taskbar repaint issue that occurs when a graphics window is toggled from full-screen mode to windowed mode (as identified by Gert van Maren a couple of weeks ago).
Also included is a fix derived from the \u201cEvents from the past\u201d discussion thread that took place on July 11."
Stephan: "attached you'll find some modifications to the GraphicsWindow-class and
their platform-dependant implementations.
The problem:
setWindowRectangle and setWindowDecoration do not update the
traits-object, so, if you call setWindowRectangle on a
not-realized-window it will open with another size when realized later.
getWindowRectangle reports possible wrong sizes if setWindowRectangle
called before.
My solution:
split the implementation in two parts:
GraphicsWindow::setWindowRectangle will update its traits-object and
call afterwards the virtual method setWindowRectangleImplementation
(which is implemented by the derived platformspecific classess). For
setWindowDecoration I am useing a similar mechanism.
I hope you'll find the submission useful, the Win32 and X11 changes are
not tested but should work."
Changes to this made by Robert are call of resized in setWindowRectangle
instead of setting of Traits, and use of a bool return type.
changes I made:
+ put a warning in the console if a nonexistant screen is requested
+ add getters for the aglcontext and pixelformat -- I need access to
them in my own code.

window.
The win32 implementation is still in its original shape since I have no win32
implementation available.
I have chosen the enum approach for the first cut. That is benefitial since
the user does not need to track creation of mouse cursors for different
windows and displays in presence of multiple viewer windows.
The default set of available mouse shapes is the same set that was available
with glut. That set served many OpenGL applications well, so the hope is that
this is enough.
Even though, that implementation is still extensible:
I have digged out the way SDL defines new mouse cursors and added a still
documented out function prototype in the GraphicsWindow that can be used to
extend the current implemtation for arbitrary mouse shapes. That is not
implemented yet.
I hope that somebody with a win32 test system can catch up that implementation
on win32."
implementation of GraphicsWindow:
- usage of WindowData, you can specify an existing window to use via
osg::Traits
- implementation of setScreenResolution and setScreenRefreshRate
- implementation of setWindowDecoration when window is already created.
There seems to be a bug regarding multiple threads and closing windows,
see my other mail on osg-users.
