Is it possible to render a javax.swing.JButton and other swing elements in a lwjgl window (with openGL)? If not, what can you recomend for in game GUI in lwjgl?

    Adding a javax.swing.JButton to a java.awt.Canvas used for Display may be subject to rendering artifacts. Instead, try one of the following alternatives:

    • Add the button to a JPanel, as shown here. Put your Display in a Canvas, as shown here. Put both in a suitable layout, e.g.

      add(canvas, BorderLayout.CENTER;
add(panel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

    • Control your Display using components in a modeless dialog, illustrated here.
