Our GUI in 3D!

In this recipe we will create our own GUI using wxPython. We are reusing some code from the wxPython demo examples, which we have reduced to the minimum code required to display OpenGL in 3D.

Note

Getting ready

Reading the previous recipe is probably good preparation for this recipe.
