| Note that this requires mex to be setup properly on your machine. On a Mac OS X machine, at a minimum you will need to have the apple developer tools installed (XCode) [[http://developer.apple.com/tools/]]. On linux, you will need a compatible version of gcc (older versions of gcc can be found [[ftp://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/sourceware.org/pub/gcc/|here]]). | Note that this requires mex to be setup properly on your machine.

| - | ====== Can I get access to all OpenGL functions? ====== | ||
| - | We have only exposed parts of the OpenGL functionality. If you need to dig | ||
| - | deeper to code your stimulus, consider writing your own mex file. This will | ||
| - | allow you to use the full functionality of the OpenGL library. To do this, | ||
| - | you could start by modifying one of our mex functions (e.g. mglClearScreen.c) | ||
| - | and add your own GL code to do what you want and compile. | ||
| - | ====== Printing the wiki help pages ====== | ||
| - | You can print out all the wiki help pages at once, by using this [[mgl:mglsinglepage|link]]. | ||
| - | ====== Compatibility with latest MAC OS and Matlab versions ====== | ||
| - | We stay reasonably up-to-date with OS and Matlab versions. As of this writing (3/2020) we are using MGL on Mac OS 10.15.3 (Catalina) and Matlab 2015a. If you are using a newer or very much older version of MGL, you may need to recompile. | + | ====== Compatibility with latest MAC OS and Matlab versions ====== |
| - | There is an [[:mgl:mglmetal|alpha (proof of principle) version]] that is compatible with Metal. | + | We stay reasonably up-to-date with OS and Matlab versions. As of this writing (8/2023) we are using MGL on Mac OS 13.5 (Ventura) and Matlab 2023a. |
