[Insight-users] slow imageviewer

Thanks for the response,

I have a ATI Radeon 7000 graphics card, which does support harware acceleration for
OpenGL.
Is there a way to force the program to work with the hardware opengl instead of the
software version?
I had to add the dependencies "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VC98\Lib\GLU32.LIB" and
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib\OPENGL32.LIB" to the linker to avoid
linking errors.
Is there a way to test opengl on a windows machine too?

Regards,
Reinhard

Hi Reinhard,

The ITK image viewer uses OpenGL,

have you verified that you have a correct
installation of OpenGL in your system ?

If your processor is going to 100% when rendering,
chances are that you don't have or you are not
using an accelerated graphic card, and therefore
all the graphic computations are being done in
software.

You can easily verify the performance of your OpenGL
by running an example such as


        /usr/X11R6/bin/glxgears



   Regards,



      Luis
