Exporting a GL view is just a nightmare. Things seem to depend upon theused driver. The solutioin I use can be seen athttp://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/trunk/gchemutils/libs/gcu/glview.cc?annotate=1098&root=gchemutilsstarting from line 368. Not sure it works in all cases.

The bad cast warning was hidden because I'd forgotten I'd closed stderr on that program.> > However, the images aren't coming out right when the "host window" isn't on-screen. This is odd, since the pixmap is supposed to be sharing lists, textures, etc with the window's context, but not otherwise related to anything on-screen.> > It *looks* to me like what's getting drawn when the window is off-screen is a small part of the image, almost as if the orthographic projection were messed up; but I've checked that, it's fine. So is the viewport.
