Doubt with OpenGL

[anamarta]

I am doing a project in Visual Studio, in which we get extra points for using a graphical implementation in OpenGL! Since i didn't learn how to work with OpenG, I have no clue of how to do certain things.

Able to now create a window with colored background, but like to create buttons, text and normal text box to fill as the program is run. Can someone please help me? Because i found enough information, but in languages that were not c + +.

Another question is: how do I make the content of the console (the main switch) appear in the window created that i have created with OpenGL?

If you can clarify my question with examples, i will be grateful.

You can't create buttons, text boxes, etc. You'll have to draw a rectangle on the screen and check the mouse events to see if it's clicked.
