(Preview Feature) Utility class to render a scene with an OpenGl context.
Preview Feature means this class is fully supported and can be used in Open Inventor applications. Being tagged as a Preview Feature just means that the implementation is still subject to API changes and adjustments based on feedback from early adopters. Please be also aware that source compatibility might be broken regardless of the Open Inventor compatibility changes policy due to our commitment to bring needed changes to be sure the specifications of this Preview Feature match the expectations of our customers.

    NOTES
    
    Stereo rendering needs a SoStereoCamera to be activated. The edited camera is the first stereo camera found in the current scene graph. If no stereo camera is found, a warning is displayed. This method must be called to update the edited camera if the scene graph changed.
