Abstract: “QtQuick in Qt5 uses OpenGL to deliver fluid, performant visuals, and an internal scene-graph structure to permit threaded rendering, decoupling the main application thread from interacting directly with the graphics driver. For developers work with an existing rendering or visualisation technology, this presents both an opportunity but also problems; QtQuick offers a compelling, modern […]
