Hi,
I am developing an MFC SDI application.

The main view has three Edit boxes for user input for x, y and radius.

The application is supposed to get these data and draw a Sphere in OSG viewer.

As OSG Viewer grabs full window, I am planning to add a child window that can have OSG viewer.

Please advise. How to add a child window in a MFC SDI application that can have a osgviewer?

Is there any better approach to solve tis task other than adding a child window?

thanks

What I have tried:

I tried adding text box and osgviewer on same view in SDI application. but in this approach osgviewer grabs full window and colors everything.

Instead of using the main view for the inputs, use a Dialog as it is much simpler to handle.

AS advised by Richard MacCutchan worked well.
