In reply to Jakub Kuniszewski. that's probably why it took almost two years to show something and not just colored cubes :D

In reply to Lukáš Jech. It look really impossible to imagine with all those controls and TabControls - all coded in Direct2D and Direct3d instead of winforms :d

In reply to Jakub Kuniszewski. Direct2D and Direct3D can share same context (if i'm not mistaken) so it's one Window with both Direct2D and Direct3D coexisting :)

In reply to Lukáš Jech. So It's Direct2D App with the Direct3D client window inside ?

In reply to Jakub Kuniszewski. It's called Direct2D or you can just use orthographic projection instead of perspective to create UI :)

You are Rendering UI (Buttons, other controls) with the DirectX ? Is this even possible ?
I thought that DirectX is designed for 3D graphics, not for the things in which winforms or Qt can be used.
I can’t google anything like this.
