so I finally started playing with some openMaya api open gl draws and found if you have your display set to viewport 2.0 that it doesn't draw the shape you defined in the plugin.  Is this a known issue with viewport 2.0 and if so, what is the work around.

Right now, I am just playing with the footPrintNode that is included in the dev kit.

thanks

Viewport 2.0 uses different classes for drawing custom shapes. I think there are some examples noted in the documentation.

yeah i think older style viewports use GL 1.1. viewport 2.0 might be 3.0 but could never find anything to do with it online. but just noticed some extra stuff in the linemanip.cpp example for viewport2.0.  but haven't tested it myself.

What about examples for the python API?   All the examples I find in it still use the old system

I don't think you can draw custom shapes in viewport 2.0 with python

You have to use the draw override classes.  MPxDrawOverride, etc
