https://github.com/asny/three-d recently merged a PR adding `glow` support: asny/three-d#210 This means it is a prime candidate for embedding 3D painting inside an eframe app. There are currently a few kinks that need to be figured out: ### Black screen When reusing the same three_d context over time (as one should), we only get one frame of egui together with three_d, and then after that a black screen with just the three_d painting on top. I need to fix that before merging this PR. ### `Shape: Send + Sync` `Shape` is `Send + Sync` and `three_d::Context` is not. This means we cannot store a three_d context and send it to the `Shape::Callback`. So we either need to recreate the three_d context each frame (obviously a bad idea), or access it through a `thread_local` hack. This PR adds both as examples, with a checkbox to switch. We could consider making `Shape: !Send + !Sync`, but that would mean `egui::Context` could not be `Send+Sync` either (because the egui context stores shapes). This could actually be fine. `egui::Context` should only be used from a background thread for calling request_repaint and allocating textures. These could be made separate parts of the egui Context, so that one would do: ``` rust let repaint_signal = egui_ctx.repaint_signal(); let tex_mngr = egui_ctx.tex_mngr(); std::thread::spawn(move || { // We can use repaint_signal and tex_mngr here, // but NOT `egui_ctx`. }): Related: * #1379 * #1380 * #1389
