mrpt-gui

---

This library provides three classes that represent GUI windows, each having a specific specialized purpose:

• mrpt::gui::CDisplayWindow : Displays 2D bitmap images, and optionally sets of points over them, etc.
• mrpt::gui::CDisplayWindow3D : A powerful 3D rendering window capable of displaying a mrpt::opengl::COpenGLScene. It features mouse navigation, Alt+Enter fullscreen switching, multiple viewports, etc. See this tutorial.
• mrpt::gui::CDisplayWindowPlots : Displays one or more 2D vectorial graphs, in a manner very similar to MATLAB "plot" commands.

All these window classes inherits from mrpt::gui::CBaseGUIWindow, which provides a set of methods and variables common to all the classes. It allow moving/resizing the windows, polling for key strokes, etc. Note events-driven applications can be also implemented since it also implements the mrpt::utils::CObservable pattern, emitting events as described in the description of mrpt::gui::CBaseGUIWindow.

All the classes in this library are in the namespace mrpt::gui
