Custom (hyper-realistic widget control)

The Custom project, shows you how to create a "hyper-realistic" GDImage widget compass control.

It mixes 2D and 3D altogether, with the hability to change the lens layer on the fly.
All the layers are linked together to work as a single entity, you can see it using the mouse to drag the compass and/or using the keyboard with the direction keys.

The widget itself is composed of 4 layers, including one OpenGL 3D sphere animation.

All the visual parameters can be adjusted using the sliders located on the right panel.

Note: you must have a graphic card that is OpenGL 2.00+ compatible to run this project.
