Hello!

I've just started looking into minib3d - therefore, the following question might sound ridiculous as the answer might be well-known to the professionals out there...but

is it possible to render minib3d output into a MaxGUI canvas? or into an image or a pixmap, respectively?

In particular, I am thinking about rendering the same scene (with slightly different camera settings) twice - with both results drawn side-by-side in order to be shown on a 3D-capable head-mounted display (such as a Zeiss cinemizer)

Hello Joe!

That was fast - thank you for your hint!

[edit]I just looked into the source code: great! It contains much of the information I need. And the remaining questions may be answered by experimenting with what is shown in your application[/edit]
