[vtkusers] Still a Bug in vtkWin32OpenGLRenderWindow ?? -> It's an ATI-Problem *ARGH*

[de Boer Ingo]

Hi,

> vtkWin32OpenGLRenderWindow..." because I don't think there is a bug. I
Okay... You are right...

The thing is, that ATI is definitely the problem !!
I have the ATI Radeon 9600 with 128MB on WindowsXP. I installed 
Catalyst 4.2 (which is the latest). With that it crashes !!
I tried it with some other computers with the same graphics card.
One with Catalyst 3.9 and it works... The next with Catalyst 4.1
and it crashes... Disabling the hardware acceleration with Catalyst
4.2 is the only solution at the moment...

Are there any hints/solutions for this one except for throwing 
the card out of the window ;)

BUT there should be a correcion of the vtkMFC samples, like making
the OnDestroy, setting the correct ParentID and WindowID. Maybe there
should be also some modifications to the OpenGLRenderWindowInteractor
to erase the background automatically, make the sizing automatically...
This would make the MFC samples more clear...


Thanks for helping me out on this one to all... I would have never
expected this from ATI...

greets
  Ingo
