Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a MonoMacGameView
  2. Context will always be legacy OpenGL 2
  3. Do not see a way to work around this not even with overriding

Expected Behavior

A way to set the pixel format to something other then the default

Actual Behavior

pixel format can not be changed from default

Environment

Xamarin studio 6.3, Xamarin Mac

MonoMacGameView constructor (NSOpenGLContext arg is for a shared context so that won't help)

Indeed it looks like it's not possible to manually set the NSOpenGLPixelFormat with this API https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/blob/master/src/OpenGL/MonoMacGameView.cs#L69-L82.

This seems like a valid request to me but I'm not familiar with the API (there might be reasons to justify it can't be manually set). Maybe @chamons can provide more insights.
