 Performance Notes for IDL's Object Graphics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
- The software renderer greatly reduces the number of redraws due to expose events.
This is especially interesting for SGI which has hardware OpenGL support, but selecting menus from a GUI on SGIs causes expose events (which then causes a redraw if using the hardware OpenGL renderer).
Therefore we would recommend using the software renderer for hardware accelerated SGIs if the object graphics window is contained within an IDL widget that contains a menu bar.
