How do I keyboard input in OpenGL

[anuproy]

Hello,

I am trying to solve my OpenGL pyramid project. If anyone can please help me with a code as soon as possible.

I have to do when I build the code it will come black window After that perform the following task:

01. F1+r = 60' rotation(static)
02. F2+r =45' rotation(continuous x-axis)
03. CTRL+w = White
04. B = Black

Thanks for your concern and help.

	// (you cant make a window of zero width).

Things you might try.. (3 is probably what you want)

1) gui, where part of the screen was the drawing area, and part of it was gui widgets like text input box
2) full screen, you can still pop up an entry box if your code has gui enabled. You may have to stop the draw thread for this, or force the entry box popup to be 'on top'


3) I think cin/getch etc all work fine. This is ok to do things like moving around in the graphics without needing to see text typed. It should work, but I havent done this in a very long time...
