<div dir="ltr">Yes :-) The thought was that the old backend would go away fairly quickly and then OpenGL2 would be renamed OpenGL. I don't think we expected the old backend to be needed this long. One of the reasons I'd like to see Mesa as a fallback is to allow us to get rid of the old backend as at that point we should have a solution that works on everything above a vt100 :-)</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 10, 2017 at 9:28 AM, Ben Boeckel <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ben.boeckel@kitware.com" target="_blank">ben.boeckel@kitware.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On Wed, May 10, 2017 at 03:14:44 -0700, Vladimir Engelgardt wrote:<br>

Note that the 1 vs. 2 meaning is a VTK-ism. The OpenGL2 backend requires<br>
features from OpenGL 3.2 (at least). The "2" comes from the fact that<br>
it's the second OpenGL backend, not the version of OpenGL.<br>
