Virindi Views
Virindi Views is a Decal service that provides an alternative to the builtin Decal windowing system, for plugins that support it.
Virindi Views supports window themes, custom titlebar controls, low-level HUD drawing in derived controls, window resizing, multiple windows displayed at once, partial and whole-window transparency, font shadowing, window decoration hiding, and dynamic control addition/deletion. It renders directly to managed DirectX textures, giving impressive framerate performance and a high degree of control to implementing plugins.
Plugins built on Virindi Views can optionally use the Virindi View Connector, which allows them to fall-back to using Decal windows if Virindi Views are not available.
Virindi Views is a part of the Virindi Plugins Bundle.
Like all Virindi Plugins Bundle components, Virindi Views is currently under development.
For support, please visit the Bundle thread on the VN Boards.
Source code to aid plugin developers in using Virindi Views is located in the Virindi Public Repository.
