version 1.1

Hologram-Window-Renderer

This Windows program captures viewport of another window and displays it on top, right, bottom and left on a cross (+ like) pattern. This way, it allows to display that window on a pepper ghost hologram pyramid. It uses OpenGL.

Usage:

Once you download or compile the .exe, run it from terminal with 5 parameters:

• Target window title - title, process name or ID of the program you want to capture viewport of.
• View width - rendering width in pixels of the captured other program's viewport.
• View height
• View offset - Distance in pixels of the views from program's window center.
• Window size - Size of the side of displayed window (it will always be a square).

Example command:

.\HoloRenderer.exe 'My program' 200 200 200 600

Limitations:

For now this program is capable of capturing windows rendered in a classic manner (classic Windows programs, Windows Forms programs, TKinter windows, PyOpenGL output (tested with RenderBirdCore)). It might be unable to capture, usually dynamic; content that renders in other manner, for example Windows UWP apps, modern media players and videogames. I might upgrade it to make it possible tho. The program may also not be able to capture viewports of processes of higher priority than itself.
