Three OpenGL windows at once on the RISC OS desktop

Posted by RISC OS One Sun, 20 Sep 2026 01:00:00 GMT

VXMesa is drawing OpenGL into ordinary RISC OS windows โ€” and into more than one at a time. Here are three of them side by side, each turning its own shaded cube.

Watch the clip (MP4, 4.1 MB), or see it playing on the Status page, where it sits with the WebGL work โ€” the aquarium sample rendered by the Raspberry Pi's VideoCore IV GPU.

Filmed on 15 September 2026. None of this is in a release yet.
