Requirements:
- API with saved GUI
- Only for 2D objects (although the 3D transforms of these 2D objects are of interest)
- Cross platform
- Vector graphics
- Raster layout + support for opacity masks - hardware acceleration, of course ...
- Animation API
- Package size - can it work in the embedded environment?
This is not for the game, but I am not against using a game type API.
Some thoughts:
Qt is probably too heavy, but I'm not good enough with the API to find out if it meets the requirements. I am not interested in Qts window management (no windows) or a widget / control set, since it is not intended for a desktop type application. Also, I'm not sure if Qt has an animation environment? Thoughts are here?
Most likely, it will be a frame built on top of OpenGL. I just don't know if such a thing exists. Also, I don’t understand about 2D graphics in OpenGL. Is 2D graphics really 2D or just 3D objects drawn on a 2D-oriented plane?
WPF is DirectX because _____________ is OpenGL
If the gap can be filled, this is what I am looking for.
