0 onli Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Martin considered EGL as the default, see https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2015/08/should-we-target-egl-as-the-default/. I don't think it is easy to say which is the best choice, only for you it is clear cut since the graphics error answer that ;) Sandro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
