using AWTGLCanvas for game/level editor

[Uli]

I'm actually working on a level editor for my game. Does anyone have some example or hint about using AWTGLCanvas together with a JScrollPane and MouseListener?

You won't be able to use a JScrollPane as such because it's a Swing lightweight component and the AWTGLCanvas is a heavyweight component. This means you'll have to wire up your own "scrolling" code by using a pair of scrollbars instead (yes! You knew there'd be a use for them one day!)

Using MouseListener is just like when using it any time else in AWT.

You can use the JScrollPane, but that leads to flicker. Better approach is like princec said to do it on your own.

To display Leightweight COntainer on top of a Heavyweight, you have to set the Leightweight to heavyweight first, if you like to show other components on top of your LWJGL Canvas.
