5446th March 2006  John Allison  (vis-V08-00-00)
545- Collected tags below.  Main features since Release 8.0:
546  o Added /vis/scene/transientsAction.  The default is "rerun", i.e.,
547    when the viewer requests, the previous event or run will be
548    processed again with the original random number seed so that
549    transients (trajectories, hits, user drawing, etc.) are
550    reconstructed.  Thus, transients are "remembered" and may be
551    copied between graphics systems.  Turn off with
552    "/vis/scene/transientsAction none".
553  o Introduced /vis/geometry/... for editing vis attributes of
554    geometry volumes.
555  o For developers:
556    * Migration from use of Establish/DecommisionSpecials.

826- Moved zlib to externals/zlib.
827
8286th May 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-14)
829- OpenGL: fixed bug (views not refreshed - opengl-V07-00-02).
830- Improved ASSCIITree guidance.
831- G4VisExecutive: Replaced printing of available graphics systems.
832  Now corresponds to behaviour of most old examples vis managers.

839
84022nd April 2005  John Allison
841- OpenGL: Implemented text for X-Windows viewers (opengl-V07-00-00/1).
842
84310th April 2005  John Allison  (visman-V07-00-00)
844- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: 2nd attempt to fix access to fpVisManager
845  from nested class for SUN.
846
84716th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-13)
848- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: fixed access to fpVisManager from nested class.
849- For gcc 2.95.2: Fixed G4String return for viewer commands.
850- Added constructor and virtual destructor to G4VUserVisAction.
851
85215th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-12)
853- Added return type G4int to G4ViewParameters::SetNoOfSides and
854  G4ModelingParameters::SetNoOfSides.  They return no. of sides, i.e.,
855  sides per circle in polyhedron contruction, that are actually set;
856  there is a lower limit of 12.
857- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: bug fix: no. of rotation steps correctly applied.
858
85910th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-11)
860- Reviewed all vis commands.  Improved guidance, simplified and
861  rationalised the commands.
862
8639th March 2005  John Allison
864- Removed "remove" and "edit" commands.
865- G4VisManager: removed "Delete" methods. (Removing or deleting an
866  existing scene, scene handler or viewer is very messy and not
867  necessary.  When a user creates a new one, he/she may leave the old
868  one around without harm.  It may be left unused or selected again later
869  if the user wants.)
870- Removed automatic parameter candidate specification for commands
871  that take an argument that is a scene, scene handler or viewer
872  name - it is checked in SetNewValue methods.  (The code was just
873  too complicated and, anyway, the result hindered, rather than
874  helped the user, because it restricted the parameter values and
875  mis-typing gave obscure messages.  Now the messages are clearer and,
876  as the guidance points out, the list of possible names can be
877  obtained with a "list" command.)
878- Made "list" commands flag current items.
879- Improved guidance for /vis/scene commands.  Still to do (groan!):
880    /vis/scene/add
881    /vis/sceneHandler
882    /vis/viewer
883
8849th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-10, needs greps-V07-00-01)
885- Refined logo and scale.
886- Improved physical volume clipping.
887- G4VisManager: Added default G4Transform3D::Identity to
888  objectTransformation argument in Draw methods.
889
8904th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-09)
891- Added first implementation of cutaway - a clipping box for physical
892  volume tree:
893    vis/scene/add/volume ! ! ! box km 0 1 0 1 0 1
894  (Does not seem properly to clip volumes wholly inside clipping volume.)
895
8963rd March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-08)
897- Introduced /vis/scene/add/logo.
898- Added Set methods to G4VModel.
899- Added argument to G4CallbackModel::operator()(const G4Transform3D&) so that
900  the model could implement a given transformation.  Provided default for
901  G4VUserVisAction::(const G4Transform3D& = G4Transform3D::Identity).
902- Improved guidance for:
903    compound commands
904    ASCIITree commands
905- Used std::istrstream::istrstream(std::string) throughout.
906
90723rd February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-07)
908- Protected scene handlers for the case of the drawing of solids NOT
909  from a physical volume tree:
910    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
911    G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
912    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
913    G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler.cc
914    G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.cc
915- Fixed a problem with ClearTransientStore.  ClearTransientStore
916  should restrict itself to its job.  In the following files,
917  ClearTransientStore also redraws the view.  In other places, a draw
918  command often follows, so it is not needed here.  In fact it can
919  cause a double recursive descent into DrawView, so the existing code
920  has been commented out (JA - 23/Jan/05):
921    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
922    G4HepRepFileSceneHandler.cc
923    G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc
924    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
925    G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
926    G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
927    G4XXXSceneHandler.cc
928- Removed (commented out) some code that forced extra kernel visits,
929  purportedly to overcome a problem in OpenGLStored methods.  Let's
930  fix OpenGL if necessary:
931    G4VSceneHandler.cc
932    G4VViewer.cc
933- Commented out SetView and ClearView in /vis/viewer/refresh:
934    G4VisCommandsViewer.cc
935- Changed signature of G4VViewer::SetNeedKernelVisit(G4bool) for compatibility.
936
93719th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-06 with greps-V07-00-00)
938- Added G4VUserVisAction and G4CallbackModel.
939- Implemented /vis/scene/add/userAction.
940- Fixed bug in /vis/viewer/update (check existence of scene handler and scene).
941
94215th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-05)
943- Introduced drawing of readout geometry for logical volumes.
944- For drawing of logical volumes, introduced boolean flags to control
945  drawing of:
946    o boolean components (if any)
947    o voxels (if any) (note: voxels are not created until start of run)
948    o readout geometry (if any)
949- Augmented commands /vis/specify and /vis/scene/add/logicalVolume to use
950  above flags.
951- G4ASCIITree: Added printing of names of sensitive detector (if any) and
952  readout geometry (if any).
953
95415th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-04)
955- Updated READMEs for G4VisExecutive.  Removed references to OPACS.
956
9579th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-03)
958- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound: fixed previously
959  missed FukuiRendererSceneHander.
960
9614th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-02)
962- Introduced G4VisExecutive.  MyVisManager deprecated.
963
96427th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-01, needs intercoms-V07-00-00)
965- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound.
966- AddSolid: Methods for adding solids to the scene handler.  They
967  must always be called in the triplet PreAddSolid, AddSolid and
968  PostAddSolid.  The transformation and visualization attributes
969  must be set by the call to PreAddSolid.  A possible default
970  implementation is to request the solid to provide a G4Polyhedron
971  or similar primitive - see, for example, G4VSceneHandler.
972- AddCompound: Methods for adding "compound" GEANT4 objects to the scene
973  handler.  These methods may either (a) invoke "user code" that
974  uses the "user interface", G4VVisManager (see, for example,
975  G4VSceneHandler in the Visualization Category, which for
976  trajectories uses G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory, via
977  G4TrajectoriesModel in the Modeling Category) or (b) invoke
978  AddPrimitives below (between calls to Begin/EndPrimitives) or (c)
979  use graphics-system-specific code or (d) any combination of the
980  above.
981
98226th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-00)
983- G4VisManager:: removed optional argument
984  const G4Transform3D& objectTransformation = G4Transform3D::Identity
985  from Draw methods for a hit and trajectory.
986- Trapped illegal nesting of Begin/EndPrimitives.
987- Added fpCurrentMaterial to G4VSceneHandler and relevant derived
988  classes and models for work with G4PhysicalVolumeModel via
989  EstablishSpecials.  So now, the material is also available (in addition
990  to current depth, logical and physical volum) during drawing of geometry
991  items.
992- Changed ASCIITree to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume and
993  G4LogicalVolume::GetMass.
994- Changed G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume.
995- Improved guidance for /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker.
996- G4VisCommandsViewerSet: made Up and Viewpoint vectors unit for safety.
997- Some additions to test area.
998
99910th December 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-02-09)
1000- Replaced M_PI with CLHEP's pi.
1001
10027th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-08)
1003- Tagged right after migration to cmath
1004- All occurences of include <math.h> have now become include <cmath>.
1005- All math functions are now prefaced with std::
1006
10077th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-07)
1008- Tagged right before migration to cmath
1009
101026th November 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-06)
1011- Tagged for release 7.0.
1012- Made from vis-V06-02-05
1013- plus opengl-V06-02-07 by John Allison
1014- plus vis-HepRep-V06-02-02 by Mark Donszelmann
1015- plus openinventor-V07-00-00 by Guy Barrand
1016
101718th November 2004  John Allison
1018- Included opengl-V06-02-07.
1019
102011th November 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-05)
1021- Made use of smart method GetPolyhedron for solids.  This greatly
1022  speeds 2nd and subsequent drawings when kernel access is required.
1023- Rationalised use of EstablishSpecials: functionality moved to base class.
1024- Removed use of obsolete G4Polymarker::line.
1025
102622nd September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-04)
1027- Moved Doxyfile to management.  doxygen output to tmp area.
1028- modeling-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1029- vistree-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1030- opengl-V06-02-06 - Trap non-regular polyhedra and other small changes.
1031- DAWN-V06-02-00 - Improve diagnostic on trapping non-regular polyhedra.
1032- vistest-V06-02-02: refined rotated tube test.
1033
103413th September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-03)
1035- vistree-V06-02-00: Improved ASCIITree:
1036  verbosity >= 3: prints volume, density of all volumes in hierarchy.
1037  verbosity >= 4: calculates the mass of the complete geometry tree taking
1038    into account daughters up to the depth specified for each physical
1039    volume in the current scene.  Culling is ignored so that all volumes
1040    are processed.  The calculation is quite tricky, since it involves
1041    subtracting the mass of that part of the mother that is occupied by
1042    each daughter and then adding the mass of the daughter, and so on
1043    down the heirarchy.  Uses G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene - see below.
1044  Added option to write to file (/vis/ASCIITree/set/outFile).
1045- modeling-V06-02-00: Added G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene and improvements
1046  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  See modeling/History for more details.
1047- Removed obsolete file: G4VisToOldVisCommands.hh
1048- Corrected mistake in /vis/viewer/set/*Vector commands.
1049- Augmented ParameterisedBox and rotated a tracker tube in test directory.
1050- Brought README.built_in_commands up to date for Geant4 6.2.  Removed all
1051  references to old commands.'
1052
10533rd August 2004  John Allison
1054- Rationalised vis command code (uses G4UIcommand static conversion
1055  functions where possible).
1056- Removed G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle GetDrawingStyle (const
1057  G4Visible&).  Instead, developer has to:
1058    // Get vis attributes - pick up defaults if none.
1059    const G4VisAttributes* pVA =
1060      fpViewer -> GetApplicableVisAttributes (v.GetVisAttributes ());
1061  where v is the visible object (polyline, circle, polyhedron, etc.), and:
1062    // Get view parameters that the user can force through the vis
1063    // attributes, thereby over-riding the current view parameter.
1064    G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle drawing_style = GetDrawingStyle (pVA);
1065    G4bool isAuxEdgeVisible = GetAuxEdgeVisible (pVA);
1066  Most developers do this anyway, so the removed routine was redundant
1067  and resulting code is more efficient and transparent.  To get
1068  colour, the developer can pick up directly from the vis attrributes,
1069  pVA, obtained as above:
1070    const G4Colour& c = pVA -> GetColour ();
1071  or use a slightly less efficient method:
1072    const G4Colour& c = GetColour (v);
1073  where v is the visible object.
1074  Note that for text, the developer must use a different procedure,
1075  since the default text colour is determined by the default text vis
1076  attributes, which may be specified independent of default vis
1077  attributes of other types of visible objects.  A function,
1078  GetTextColour, is provided and the recommended use is:
1079    const G4Colour& c = GetTextColour (text);  // Picks up default if none.
1080- Rationalised use of vis attributes in OpenGL and XXX.
1081
108228th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-02 with greps-V06-02-00)
1083- Implemented force auxiliary edge visible feature of G4VisAttributes.
1084- Included openinventor-V06-02-00 (minor revision - Guy Barrand).
1085
108623rd July 2004  John Allison
1087- Added auxiliary edge visible flag to G4ViewParameters and a new
1088  command, /vis/viewer/set/auxiliaryEdge.  (Auxiliary edges are not
1089  genuine edges of the volume.  They may be in a curved surface made
1090  out of polygons, for example, or in plane surface of complicated
1091  shape that has to be broken down into simpler polygons.
1092  HepPolyhedron breaks all surfaces into triangles or quadrilaterals.
1093  There will be auxiliary edges for any volumes with a curved surface,
1094  such as a tube or a sphere, or a volume resulting from a Boolean
1095  operation.  Normally, they are not shown, but sometimes it is useful
1096  to see them.  In particular, a sphere, because it has no egdes, will
1097  not be seen in wireframe mode in some graphics systems unless this
1098  flag is turned on.)
1099
110016th July 2004  John Allison
1101- Refined forced wireframe algorithm - *always* force wireframe even
1102  if hidden line removal is specified.
1103- opengl-V06-02-04.
1104
110515th July 2004  John Allison
1106- Small improvement to G4XXX (sample graphics system).
1107
110814th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-01)
1109- Removed deprecated commands:
1110    /vis/viewer/show               (use /vis/viewer/update)
1111    /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi     (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsThetaPhi)
1112    /vis/viewer/lightsVector       (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsVector)
1113    /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi  (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointThetaPhi)
1114    /vis/viewer/viewpointVector    (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointVector)
1115  (See geant4/source/visualization/README.built_in_commands for list
1116  of current commands.)
1117- Tidied guidance for /vis/viewer/set.
1118- Included opengl-V06-02-03 (cosmetic).
1119
112014th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-00)
1121- opengl-V06-02-02 and vistest-V06-02-01:
1122  Hidden line *and/or* hidden surface removal now work for OGL*X and OGL*Xm.
1123
11241st July 2004  John Allison
1125- Correction to guidance of /vis/viewer/set/hiddenEdge.
1126- Small improvement to README of /vis/scene/add/axes.
1127- vistest-V06-02-00.
1128- opengl-V06-02-00.
1129- visman-V06-02-00: Fix for porting on gcc-3.4.0: made ProcessView()
1130  public, since used as private friend (Gabriele Cosmo).
1131
11329th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-03)
1133- Adopt G4DLLIMPORT/G4DLLEXPORT technique to handle extern simbols for
1134  allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1135- Minor correction in modeling/GNUmakefile for GLOBLIBS definition.
1136- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02b".
1137
11387th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-02)
1139- Includes "vis-HepRep-V06-01-04".
1140- Export extern symbols for allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1141  Modified files: G4RayTrajectory.hh, G4RayTrajectoryPoint.hh.
1142- GNUmakefiles: added definition of GLOBLIBS for DLLs support on Windows.
1143- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02a".
1144
11459th April 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-01-01 + interfaces-V06-01-00)
1146- Tagged OpenGL as below.  Joint with interfaces-V06-01-00.
1147
11487th April 2004  Guy Barrand
1149- visualization/OpenGL/* : use the G4OpenGL.hh file.
1150- Added : visualization/OpenGL/include/G4OpenGL.hh to encapsulate
1151  the include of gl/gl.h and gl/glu.h that may be platform dependant.
1152  It permits to rm some #ifdef WIN32 spread in the code. It opens also
1153  the way to the usage of the Apple OpenGL on a Mac.
1154
115514 March 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-00-01)
1156- HepRepFile handle duplicate ShowView.
1157- HepRepFile improve layering and hierarchy for hits.
1158
115917th February 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-00-00)
1160- Fixed bug #581: wrong order of statements in
1161  G4OpenGLXViewer::~G4OpenGLXViewer (see bug report).
1162
11631st December 2003  John Allison
1164- Added checks and minor improvment of behaviour at end of event and run:
1165  o G4VisManager::EndOfRun: added check on MarkForClearingTransientStore.
1166  o G4VisCommandsScene.cc: For "/vis/scene/endOf[Event|Run]Action refresh",
1167    SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(true).
1168
116927th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-06)
1170- Added /vis/scene/endOfRunAction.
1171- Includes vis-HepRep-V05-02-08.
1172- G4VisManager: Removed PrintAllGraphicsSystems and
1173  PrintInstalledGraphicsSystems.  They are difficult to maintain and
1174  are anyway not used.  (There remains PrintAvailableGraphicsSystems,
1175  which is much used, and iterates over instantiated graphics systems
1176  and needs no maintenance.)
1177
117820th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-05)
1179- Re-submitted.  Includes vis-HepRep-05-02-07: fixes compiler issues and
1180  other minor fixes.
1181
118214th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-04)
1183- Includes vis-HepRep-05-02-03: new HepRep XML driver for HepRep Version 2.
1184- Bug fix in G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.
1185
118612th November 2003  John Allison
1187- Bug in /vis/scene/add/volume: requestedDepthOfDescent now correctly
1188  propagated to "world" volume.
1189- modeling-V05-02-02: G4PhysicalVolumeModel: CalculateExtent always
1190  searches complete hierarchy.
1191- Change initialisation of G4VSceneHandler so that there is always a
1192  clear on first drawing  - fMarkForClearingTransientStore(true).
1193- Removed redundant code from G4VisManager::::EndOfRun.
1194

1529- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-04.
1530- Added G4VisManager::Draw(const G4Scale&,...  Needs intercoms-V03-02-04.
1531- Added template graphics system XXX.
1532- Improved verbosity guidance.
1533
153414th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-11)
1535- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-03.
1536- Moved default value G4Transform3D::Identity of argument from
1537  G4VSceneHandler::BeginPrimitives to
1538  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginPrimitives.  Needs intercoms-V03-02-03.
1539- Fixed bug in G4VSceneHandler::AddPrimitive(const G4Scale&).  Needs
1540  greps-V03-02-02.
1541- Added sceneHandler.Begin/EndPrimitives messages to models (long
1542  standing bug!).
1543- Removed "dummy" graphics systems in G4VisManager.cc.
1544- Improved robustness of some commands, particularly
1545  /vis/scene/notifyHandlers.
1546- Improved support for multiple viewers (but see OpenGL/History).
1547
154811th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-01)
1549- Implemented /vis/scene/endOfEventAction.
1550
15519th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-00)
1552- Note: non-standard tag to indicate internal use only.
1553- Added /vis/scene/create at start of compound command /vis/open to avoid
1554  warnings.
1555- Removed G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy.  It is no longer used.  The
1556  textual or graphical representation of the geometry hierarchy is now
1557  done in G4xxxTree classes in visua;ization/Tree.
1558- Removed /vis/scene/notifyHandlers from
1559  G4VVisCommandScene::UpdateVisManagerScene - too much updating going on.
1560  It was leading to recursive refreshing/updating.
1561- Implemented auto-refresh at end of event.  (See also OpenGL/History.)
1562  Introduced G4VSceneHandler::Get/SetMarkForClearingTransientStore for
1563  postponed (lazy) clearing of transients (e.g., trajectories) from store
1564  (graphical database) and view.  The mark is set at the end of
1565  G4VisManager::EndOfEvent and the actual clearing is done in:
1566    void G4VisManager::ClearTransientStoreIfMarked(){
1567      // Assumes valid view.
1568      if (fpSceneHandler->GetMarkForClearingTransientStore()) {
1569        fpSceneHandler->SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(false);
1570        fpSceneHandler->ClearTransientStore();
1571      }
1572    }
1573  which is called at the start of each G4VisManager::Draw and the beginning
1574  of G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.  Thus the picture stays from the end of all
1575  drawing for the event until the first drawing of the next event.
1576   
15775th August 2001  John Allison
1578- Small refinements to printing under new verbosity control.
1579
15804th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10)
1581- Re-implemented verbosity control.  Output statements wherever possible
1582  are controlled by the verbosity in a simple graded message scheme:
1583    enum Verbosity {
1584      quiet,         // Nothing is printed.
1585      startup,       // Startup and endup messages are printed...
1586      errors,        // ...and errors...
1587      warnings,      // ...and warnings...
1588      confirmations, // ...and confirming messages...
1589      parameters,    // ...and parameters of scenes and views...
1590      all            // ...and everything available.
1591    };
1592  Note that the G4VisManager member object name and type have changed:
1593    Verbosity             fVerbosity;  // New.
1594    const G4int           fVerbose;
1595    // fVerbose is kept for backwards compatibility for some user
1596    // examples.  (It is used in the derived user vis managers to print
1597    // available graphics systems.)  It is initialised to 1 in the
1598    // constructor and cannot be changed.
1599
16003rd August 2001  John Allison
1601- Added README.quick, a quick installation guide.
1602
160330th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-09)
1604- Eliminated view parameters from G4VisManager.  Now, each view maintains its
1605  own parameters.  Can be copied from one view to another with:
1606    /vis/viewer/set/all <from-viewer-name>
1607    Copies view parameters from from-viewer to current viewer.
1608    Affects current viewer.
1609- Removed redundant methods from G4VisManager, mostly to do with old-style
1610  commands.
1611
161227th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-08)
1613- Needs config-V03-02-01.
1614- Introduced environment variable G4VIS_NONE that, if set, no visualization
1615  drivers are built and no vis libraries are built, not even
1616  libG4vis_management.  (libG4modeling is still built.)  The C-pre-processor
1617  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are *not* set.
1618- Removed the need to specify environment variables for visualization drivers
1619  which do not need external packages or libraries, namely :
1620      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWNFILE_DRIVER
1621      G4VIS_BUILD_RAYTRACER_DRIVER
1622      G4VIS_BUILD_VRMLFILE_DRIVER
1623      G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1624      G4VIS_BUILD_GAGTREE_DRIVER
1625    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1626      G4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE
1627      G4VIS_USE_RAYTRACER
1628      G4VIS_USE_VRMLFILE
1629      G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1630      G4VIS_USE_GAGTREE
1631  For backwards compatibility, unless G4VIS_NONE is set, the corresponding
1632  C-pre-processor variables are automatically set.  Also, the C-pre-processor
1633  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are set.
1634- As before, environment variables for other drivers still need positive
1635  setting of their G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE environment variables.  In this
1636  category are:
1637      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWN_DRIVER
1638      G4VIS_BUILD_OPACS_DRIVER
1639      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLX_DRIVER
1640      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLWIN32_DRIVER
1641      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLXM_DRIVER
1642      G4VIS_BUILD_OIX_DRIVER
1643      G4VIS_BUILD_OIWIN32_DRIVER
1644      G4VIS_BUILD_VRML_DRIVER
1645    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1646      G4VIS_USE_DAWN
1647      G4VIS_USE_OPACS
1648      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLX
1649      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLWIN32
1650      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLXM
1651      G4VIS_USE_OIX
1652      G4VIS_USE_OIWIN32
1653      G4VIS_USE_VRML
1654  In this case G4VIS_NONE must *not* be set.
1655- Fixed unchecked pointer in G4VSceneHandler::ClearStore().
1656
165725th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-07)
1658- Improved access to models (modeling-V03-02-03).
1659- Made G4VSceneHandler::fpModel non-const G4VModel* for convenience.
1660- Improved checks and warning messages in /vis/scene/add/scale.
1661
166224th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-06)
1663- Needs greps-V03-02-01 for small interface change to G4Scale.
1664- Includes modeling-V03-02-02.
1665- Force rebuild of graphics "stores" (graphical databases) and, if
1666  auto-refresh is true, refresh of all views
1667  (/vis/scene/notifyHandlers) after an addition to scene.
1668- Improvements to /vis/scene/add/scale:
1669  o Added colour.
1670  o Assigned a genuine extent.
1671
167223rd July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-05 is non existent - sorry!!!)
1673- Improved /vis/scene/add/scale.
1674- Improved auto-refreshing.
1675
167621st July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-04)
1677- Added /vis/scene/add/scale.  Needs greps-V03-02-00 and intercoms-V03-02-02.
1678
167919th July 2001  Satoshi Tanaka  (vis-V03-02-03)
1680- Modification of G4DAWNFILEViewer.cc
1681- PostScript command "showpage" is always added to g4_XX.eps
1682  so that it is printable. (It can also be inserted into
1683  LaTeX documents.
1684
168518th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-02)
1686- Ensured rotation and translation of replica is restored (modeling-V03-02-00)
1687  (fixes crashes in replica tracking).
1688
168914th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-01)
1690- Included raytracer-V03-02-00 (minor cosmetics).
1691- Minor changes in G4OpenGLXViewer.cc to eliminate pedantic ISO C++ warnings.
1692- Merged vis-V03-02-patch01 (below) to head.
1693- Included new disclaimer.
1694
169514th July 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-02-patch01 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1696- Fixed crash in optimised mode: added Initialise() to viewers so
1697  that windows are opened after viewers are fully constructed.
1698
169910th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-00)
1700- Removed old-style commands.
1701- Removed maintenance of G4VisManager's G4ViewParameters object (this
1702  will be removed soon).
1703- Merged vis-V03-02-patch00 (below) to head.
1704
170510th July  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-patch00 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1706- Corrected mistake which could cause crash if user specified a non-
1707  existent scene handler in /vis/sceneHandler/remove.
1708
170919th June 2001  Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-01-07)
1710-OS dependence is removed from the DAWN-network driver.
1711 * gethostname() removed
1712 * G4SocketConfig.hh and G4SocketMacro.hh are removed.
1713- Now "setenv G4DAWN_HOST_NAME hostname" is mandatory to use
1714  the DAWN-network driver.
1715
171615th June 2001  John Allison
1717- Added GAGTree to G4VisManager.cc, MyVisManager.cc.  Need corresponding
1718  changes in config.
1719
172015th June 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-06)
1721- Added 2nd template argument (less) to sets in G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler and
1722  G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.
1723
172415th June 2001  Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-01-05)
1725- The  first committing of GAGTree driver.
1726- Other files in ./Tree/ are the same as vis-V03-01-04.
1727
17285th June 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-04)
1729- Moved re-useable code from G4ASCIITree to G4VTree.
1730- Made sure all pointers in G4VisManager are initialised on construction.
1731
17324th June 2001  John Allison
1733- G4ASCIITree: Added logical volume name and solid name and type under
1734  verbosity control.
1735- G4ASCIITree: Forced culling off so that all volumes are seen, even if
1736  "invisible".
1737
173829th May 2001  John Allison
1739- Small clean up in test directory.
1740
174125th May 2001  John Allison

1746- Bug fix in G4ASCIITreeMessenger.cc: currentAsDefault = true.
1747- Drivers in alphabetical order in MyVisManager.cc.
1748
174923rd May 2001  John Allison
1750- Eliminated Linux pedantic warnings, except FukuiRenderer, VRML and OPACS.
1751
175222nd May 2001  John Allison
1753- Refined ASCIITree.
1754
175521st May 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-02)
1756- Minor bug corrections (mostly to fix things that used to work with the
1757  old /vis~/ commands but ceased to work with the new /vis/commands:
1758  o If a scene is empty at drawing time, the "world" is added.
1759  o Window size hint now works for OpenGL.
1760- Fixed some minor warnings for strict C++ (size_t, etc.).
1761
176218th May 2001 John Allison
1763- Removed unnecessary virtual inheritance of G4VViewer in G4RayTracerViewer.
1764- Introduced verbosity to ASCIITree.
1765- Proper deletion of directories in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.
1766
176715th May 2001 John Allison
1768- Fixed bug in name of /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane command.
1769
17703rd May 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-01)
1771- Changes for greps-V03-01-01 (elimination of RW).
1772- Improvements in /vis/scene/add/volume.
1773- Added /vis/drawTree.
1774
177510th April 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-00)
1776- Added two new commands:
1777    /vis/scene/add/text
1778    /vis/scene/add/axes
1779- Added first version of ASCIITree to dump geometry hierarchy to
1780  standard output as ASCII stream.
1781  This requires two new environment variables:
1782    G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1783    G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1784  and config-V03-01-00.
1785
17862nd April 2001  John Allison
1787- Tidied OpenGL (opengl-V03-00-01) - see OpenGL/History.
1788
17892nd April 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-09)
1790- Fixed some warnings from DEC cxx.
1791
179215th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-08)
1793- Changed rotation of phi-replicas in G4PhysicalVolumeModel.cc to
1794  ensure correspondence with rule that phi=0 bisects the replica.
1795  WARNING: Prior to this fix the graphics did NOT correspond to the
1796  replica navigation.  If you have been relying on the graphics to
1797  position daughter volumes in a phi-replica, navigation will have
1798  been incorrect, possibly without causing a crash.  The above fix
1799  will change the apparent position as shown by the graphics and you
1800  will have to correct the positioning of daughters.  Make sure the
1801  diaghters are all properly enclosed within the replica.  Graphics
1802  and navigation now correspond,
1803
18047th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-07)
1805- Cosmetic corrections for ISO compliance.
1806
180723rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-06)
1808- Removed all references to RogueWave.
1809
18104th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-05)
1811- Reverted to /vis/viewer commands updating vis manager's view parameters.
1812  Otherwise this can have a big effect on users if old commands are still
1813  being used.  Let's schedule this change for the next version of Geant4.
1814- Added the following new commands:
1815  /vis/enable [true|false]
1816  /vis/disable
1817  /vis/verbose [<verbosity-integer>]
1818  /vis/viewer/set/lineSegmentsPerCircle  [<number-of-sides-per-circle>]
1819  /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane ...
1820  Only /vis/scene/add/text and /vis/scene/add/axes to go!!!
1821
18224th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-04)
1823- /vis/viewer commands no longer update vis manager's view parameters.
1824- Most /vis~/ copmmands give DEPRECATED warning, except:
1825  /vis~/draw/axes
1826  /vis~/draw/text
1827  /vis~/set/section_plane
1828  /vis~/set/sides
1829  /vis~/set/verbose
1830  which have still to be re-implemented.  All /vis~/ commands are still
1831  available through /vis/ for the time being.  (Window size hint no longer
1832   works.)
1833- Added "auto refresh" to view parameters.
1834- Added "default" view parameters to viewers.
1835- Made OpenGL viewers "auto refresh" by default.
1836- Added:
1837  /vis/viewer/set/autoRefresh
1838  /vis/viewer/set/projection
1839- Added compound command:
1840  /vis/drawView [<theta-deg>] [<phi-deg>]
1841                [<pan-right>] [<pan-up>] [<pan-unit>]
1842                [<zoom-factor>]
1843                [<dolly>] [<dolly-unit>]
1844
18454th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-03)
1846- Added several new vis commands:
1847  /vis/viewer/dolly
1848  /vis/viewer/dollyTo
1849  /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi
1850  /vis/viewer/lightsVector
1851  /vis/viewer/pan
1852  /vis/viewer/panTo
1853  /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi
1854  /vis/viewer/viewpointVector
1855  /vis/viewer/zoom
1856  /vis/viewer/zoomTo
1857  /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker
1858  /vis/viewer/set/lightsMove
1859
18603rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-02)
1861- Tidied for CodeWizard.  Small changes to many files in management, modeling
1862  and OpenGL.
1863
18641st February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-01)
1865- Fixed cause of crash when setting viewpoint before creating scene (Bug #157).
1866  Solution: SetView no longer called when view parameters are changed.  In
1867  any case it's called just before drawing, whixh is the right place.
1868- Fixed /vis/set/sides problem (Satoshi Tanaka) (Bug #204).
1869  Solution: Update view's view parameters in /vis/set/sides - had somehow
1870  been overlooked.
1871
187225th January 2001  John Allison
1873- Added protection against empty G4Polyhedron objects.
1874   FukuiRenderer/src/G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1875   OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc
1876   OpenGL/src/G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
1877   OpenInventor/src/G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc
1878   VRML/src/G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1879   VRML/src/G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1880
188125th January 2001  John Allison  (opengl-V03-00-00)
1882- Fixed Bug #120.  Implemented running re-calculation of up-vector in
1883  the case of "object rotation" (lights move with camera) to prevent
1884  "flipping" of view when camera passes through up-vector.  Note that
1885  the default is "camera rotation" (lights do not move with camera,
1886  i.e., remain fixed relative to object) so the default is that this
1887  "flipping" can happen.  To set "object rotation" (lights move with
1888  camera) use /vis/lights/move_with_camera true (soon to be
1889  /vis/viewer/set/lights move-with-camera) or click "Object" radio
1890  button on Rotation Panel in OpenGLXm mode.
1891- Changed some objects to references for efficiency.  E.g.:
1892  const G4Vector3D& vp = pView->fVP.GetViewpointDirection ().unit ();
1893
189418th January 2001  John Allison
1895- Corrected G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  This corrects a bug whereby the
1896  requested drawing of a physical volume and its decendants starting
1897  at a depth greater than 2 was incorrectly positioned on the screen.
1898- /vis/scene/include commands withdrawn - use equivalent commands
1899  /vis/scene/add.
1900- OpenGL: cosmetic and minor performance improvements.
1901
190216th January 2001  John Allison  (vis-03-00-00)
1903- All vis commands "available" in all G4 states.
1904- Other small cosmetic changes to commands.
1905- OpenGL: square and circle markers correctly rendered.
1906  Note: subsequent rotations in stored mode also rotate these markers.
1907- Some small changes to test  - see test/History.
1908
19092nd November 2000  Gunter Folger  (vis-V02-00-02)
1910- Added targets includes and clean_libs to visualization/GNUmakefile.
1911
191218th October 2000  John Allison  (vis-V02-00-01)
1913- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: protected against volumes without material.
1914- Removed /vis/viewer/update from compound commands /vis/drawVolume
1915  and /vis/specify.
1916- Updated comments in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.cc.
1917
191819th August 2000  John Allison  (vis-V02-00-00)
1919- Fixed bug in /vis/lights/direction - now does not refresh view.
1920- Corrected "scene" where it should read "scene handler" in some
1921  comments and output statements.
1922
19233rd July 2000  John Allison
1924- Explicitly initialised all data members of G4ViewParameters in constructor.
1925
19269th June 2000  John Allison  (vis-V01-01-06)
1927- Tagged for system testing.
1928
19298th June 2000  Guy Barrand
1930- OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc : correct polyhedron
1931  wire-frame in order to remove some edges. Now the
1932  rendering is the same than for OpenGL driver.
1933   This was requested for long by ALICE, and had been
1934  requested for ATLAS by Gaston Parrour recently.
1935
19367th June 2000  John Allison
1937- /vis/viewer/update preferred, synonym /vis/viewer/show deprecated.
1938
19397th June 2000  Makoto Asai
1940- Fix the flip view of RayTracer.
1941

1959- Many bug fixes from in OpenGL (opengl-V01-01-00) - see OpenGL/History.  Main
1960  features:
1961  o workaround for bug in Mesa which slowed OpenGLXm (Guy Barrand).
1962  o multiple OpenGLXm windows no longer cause crash on exit (Guy).
1963- modeling-V01-01-00: Added G4VTreeGraphicsScene (DTREE).

198513th May 2000  John Allison
1986- Redefined current target point to be *relative* to standard target point.
1987  (No longer necessary to initialize current target point in G4VViewer
1988  constructor.  The fix of 4th May is reversed.)
1989
199011th May 2000  Satoshi Tanaka vis-V01-01-03
1991- In G4DAWNFILEViewer.cc,
1992  <       strcpy( fPSViewer, "ghostview" );
1993  ---
1994  > //    strcpy( fPSViewer, "ghostview" );
1995  >       strcpy( fPSViewer, "gv" );
1996
1997
19984th May 2000  John Allison

2001- Re-implemented /vis/viewer/reset to change view parameters of
2002  viewer directly.
2003
20042nd May 2000  John Allison  vis-V01-01-02
2005- Added /vis/viewer/reset.
2006- G4VSceneHandler, G4VViewer, G4OpenGLXmMainMenubarCallbacks: corrected
2007  some name anomolies - "scene" was still being used in places where it
2008  meant "scene handler".

2200- G4GoSceneHandler.cc/G4GoSceneHandler::EndPrimitives : modify
2201  the logic of setting the OMatrix for Go objects in order
2202  to avoid the usage of the CLHEP/Rotation.getAngleAxis that

2308          - Added SetView and ShowView to G4OpenGLXViewer:
2309              // To force change of context...
2310              void G4OpenGLXViewer::SetView () {
2311                glXMakeCurrent (dpy, win, cx);
2312                G4OpenGLViewer::SetView (); 
2313              }
2314              // Hopefully to get better flushing in DEC OpenGL...
2315              void G4OpenGLXViewer::ShowView () {
2316                glXWaitGL ();
2317                glFlush ();
2318              }
2319
2320

2342
2343vis-00-04-03  9th December 1998  John Allison
2344- Made /vis/ commands from /vis~/.  The idea is to maintain backwards
2345  compatibility while allowing us to "deprecate" the old commands over
2346  a period of time.  Some of these /vis/ commands respond with "superceded",
2347  i.e., superceded by new commands, but still available in /vis~/.
2348- OpenGL viewing volume increased by 20% to prevent corners being clipped.
2349
2350- 08/12/98 : G.Barrand : OpenInventor : due to

2366  G4ModelingParameters and G4ViewParameters.
2367- G4PhysicalVolumeModel can now handle invisible daughters.
2368- More new /vis/ commands - depends on intercoms-00-04-01.
2369- G4VScene passes DefaultVisAttributes* to ModelingParameters.
2370
2371vis-00-03-07  23rd November 1998  John Allison.

2386- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is added to
2387  management/include/MyVisManager.cc.
2388
2389vis-00-03-05  9th November 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2390- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is commited:
2391 (1) Generatin of VRML 2.0 format files to describe Geant4 simulation.
2392 (2) Interactive displaying of physiccal-volume names and copy numbers
2393 (3) Interactive displaying of hit positions (displayed strings are
2394     costomizable.
2395 (4) Wireframe drawing style of Geant4 visualization is reflected as
2396     transparency = 0.7.  This value is customizable.
2397     If transparency is 1.0, drawing of detector geometry is skipped,
2398     and hits can be picked easily.
2399
24006th November 1998  John Allison
2401- Implemented basic /vis/viewer commands.
2402- Added `const G4String& name' argument to G4VScene and G4VView constructors.

2408- G4OpenGLXView.hh, G4OpenGLXmView.cc, G4OpenGLXmWindowHandlingCallbacks.cc
2409  in order that things compile and compile without warnings on HP/aCC
2410
241114th October 1998  John Allison
2412- Augmented the new /vis/ commands.  Still not complete but they
2413  co-work with the old commands.
2414- Changed char* fName to G4String fName in G4VScene and G4VView.
2415  Consequent changes in G4OpenGLView.  Also OpenInventor?  Etc.
2416
241711th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2418- added (not a very good) version of hidden lines removal code. This code
2419  suffers from depth buffering artefacts. glPolygonOffset is a feature of
2420  OpenGL version 1.1, and can help overcome depth buffer problems. The code
2421  to utilise glPolygonOffset is committed, but commented out, as it doesn't
2422  seem to work with the version of Mesa available on rsplus currently. My
2423  ideal strategy is to enable depth testing, draw the model as lines, enable
2424  filled polygon offsetting (glPolygonOffset(1.0 /*offset scale factor*/,
2425  2/*offset bias*/); glEnable (GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILLED);) then draw the
2426  model as filled polygons. The offsetting should just add `2' (in window
2427  coordinates, I think) onto the z value of all vertices relating to filled
2428  polygons, thus dismissing the conflict between almost identical z values
2429  for lines and filled polygon edges.

2432- G4VisManager inherits G4VStateDependent.  This is used to draw
2433  end-of-event models.
2434
24354th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2436- Added ability for all G4OpenGLX derived graphics systems to produce
2437  vectored PostScript hardcopy. Facility for `automated screen dump'
2438  (i.e. pixmap output) still kept, as some rasterization features
2439  don't make it into the vectored PostScript output (such as haloing
2440  effects). Facility currently available via G4OpenGLXm by clicking
2441  `Miscellany' then `Create .eps file', to get a popup printing
2442  window.
2443
2444vis-00-03-02a  26th September 1998 
2445- DAWNFILE driver is made platform dependent.
2446  (It is now compilable both at both Unix and NT without necessity
2447   of C macros like WIN32.)
2448

2513  compilers happy.
2514
2515vis-00-02-01  6th August  John Allison

2520- G4RayView: syntax bug fixes.
2521
25224th August 1998 Andy Walkden
2523I made some changes to OpenGL code...
2524The changes are (i) to tidy up some redundant hidden line
2525removal function calls, (ii) to put some hidden line removal
2526code in G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive(G4Polyhedron) and
2527(iii) to add an option to generate an encapsulated postscript
2528file of the current view in OpenGLXm. There is now a button
2529in the Miscellany pulldown of the main menubar to bring up
2530a shell in which you can specify a filename, colour or black
2531and white and request the creation of a .eps file. The
2532code is to be found in G4OpenGLXView, and so is not bound
2533to the Xm user. Also it needs fixing for some Mesa
2534implementations, and the HP CDE environment manages to stuff
2535things up when rendering to a pixmap (although CDE makes a
2536mess of most other things as well, so this isn't
2537disastrous).
2538
2539
2540vis-00-01-08  21th July 1998  John Allison
2541- Removed automatic refresh from /vis/camera/reset in G4VisCommandsCamera.cc.
2542
2543vis-00-01-07b  21th July 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2544- Revised G4FRSCENE::SendBoundingBox() so that
2545  zooming polycy of  DAWN drivers becomes consistent with
2546  OpenGL drivers
2547
2548vis-00-01-07  20th July 1998  John Allison

2550  before geometry is available.
2551
2552vis-00-01-06  19th July 1998  John Allison
2553- Default culling: culling - on, culling of invisible objects - on.
2554- set/drawing_style does *not* change culling flags.

2612  the head version of GNUmakefile.architecture.
2613- Consequential changes (improvements) to template handling in test19.cc
2614- Some minor improvements in modeling.
2615
2616vis-00-06-06  11th June 1998  John Allison
2617- Fixes to test_utils - see test/History.
2618- Improvements in modeling - see modeling/History.
2619
2620vis-00-06-05  11th June 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2621- In G4VisManMessDraw.cc and G4VisManMessSet.cc , ...
2622  //    G4double unit = G4UIcommand::valueOf (unitString);
2623        G4double unit = G4UnitDefinition::GetValueOf (unitString);
2624
2625vis-00-06-04  10th June 1998  John Allison

2627- Changed test/GNUmakefile to use G4VIS_USE.gmk.
2628- Separate libraries are now default in GNUmakefile.
2629- Committed an interim version of README.
2630- Moved G4BoundingSphereScene from management to modeling.

2632- Removed some unnecessary checks in G4VisManMess*.
2633
2634vis-00-06-03  27th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2635- DAWNFILE driver is added. It is to generate g4.prim file
2636  under the current directory.  And make DAWN or DAVID invoke
2637  using the g4.prim file as an input. For details, see the blackboard
2638  document.
2639
264021st May 1998 Andy Walkden
2641- Added hidden line removal code to G4OpenGLView. HLR utilises OpenGL's
2642  stencil buffer, but still the drawn lines are a little fragmented
2643  (an effect seen often when depth buffering is used to resolve pixel
2644  rendering disputes).
2645- HLR requires wireframe rendering, filled polygon rendering and then wireframe
2646  rendering again. Hence, three visits to the kernel help to slow HLR
2647  rendering right down.
2648
2649vis-00-06-02  20th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2650- Added G4VisFeaturesOfDAWNFILE.hh, cc
2651- Revised visualization/GNUmakefile, GNUmakefile.G4VIS_BUILD,
2652  GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE
2653- These are for DAWNFILE driver in preparation, which enables to
2654  invoke DAVID directly from Geant4.

2660- Introduced non-pure virtual functions
2661  Establish/DecommissionSpecials (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2662  G4VGraphicsScene with implementation of the former in G4VScene.
2663  Modified G4PhysicalVolumeModel to use it; also protected
2664  G4PhysicalVolumeModel against non-implementation of
2665  Establish/DecommissionSpecials.
2666- Template instantiations in G4RayView made exclusive to GNU_GCC
2667- Some minor changes under test - see test/History.
2668
266927th April 1998 Andy Walkden
2670- altered OpenGLView's structure a little. Now, G4OpenGLXmView is a
2671  type of (inherits from) G4OpenGLXView.
2672- made code for haloing effects common to all OpenGL views.
2673- changed XUnmapWindow in G4OpenGLXView::~G4OpenGLXView to XDestroyWindow
2674  (idea of Guy's)
2675
267627th April 1998 Guy Barrand
2677- vis/OPACS : remove Begin/EndModeling in G4GoScene.
2678
2679vis-00-05-06  23rd April 1998  John Allison
2680- Changed test19.mac to test19.g4m and consequent change in test19.cc.
2681- Fixed order of linking vis-a-vis -lG4track and -lG4tracking (GB).
2682- Fixed inadvertent bug in test_utils/src/MyPhysicsList.cc.

2684
2685vis-00-05-05  21st April 1998  John Allison
2686- Added run-time command line argument: test19 [<session-type>] [<verbosity>]
2687- Removed #if GNU_GCC from template instantiation requests in test19.cc.
2688- Added fDefaultTextVisAttributes to G4ViewParameters.
2689- Added G4VScene::GetTextColour (changed G4FukuiRendererScene, G4GoScene and
2690  G4OpenInventorScene.
2691- Changed default view parameters: culling on and invisible object culling on.
2692- Tidied CreateScene/View.
2693- Continued BaBar development.
2694
269515th April 1998  John Allison
2696- Added test/EucIntfce/, test/Bogus/ and test/babar_utils/ for BaBar test code.
2697  Also a new main() in BaBarCallListTest.cc.  Also a data file call_list.dat.
2698  See babar_utils/README.
2699- Camera commands, except spin and orbit, no longer initiate draw.
2700- Text is blue for time being (visible on black or white background.)
2701
270215th April 1998 : Guy Barrand
2703- From discussion with John and Simone G4VToolkit

2705
2706vis-00-05-04a  11th April 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2707- Code improvements in DAWN driver
2708- (1) View parameters are sent to DAWN only at drawing times.
2709- (2) Way of getting marker size are made simpler by using
2710-     G4VScene::GetMarkerRadius ()  etc.
2711
2712vis-00-05-04  8th April 1998  John Allison
2713- Small bug fix - then tag for Easter.
2714
2715HEAD  6th April 1998  John Allison
2716- Added error printing to G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text).
2717- Added /vis~/draw/text.
2718- Added units to /vis~/draw/axes.
2719- Began the job of restructuring vis commands; so there is a new class
2720  G4VisCommandsCameraMessengers for starters!
2721
2722HEAD  4th April 1998  John Allison
2723- Removed automatic drawing after /vis~/set commands.  Now an explicit
2724  redraw is necessary, but it allows you to change parameters during
2725  building a view.  For example to superimpose projected hits on a
2726  section:
2727    /vis~/clear/view
2728    /vis~/set/section_plane on 0 0 20 cm 0 0 1
2729    /vis~/draw/current
2730    /vis~/set/section_plane off
2731    /run/beamOn
2732- Fixed small bug in OpenGL for section drawing.
2733- Made some small improvements in G4ViewParameters.
2734
2735vis-00-05-03  4th April 1998  John Allison
2736- Re-engineered maintenance of current depth, etc.  Needed new method
2737  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginModeling (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2738  graphics_reps.  The result is much cleaner model and modeling
2739  parameters classes.  Also, the current depth, physical volume and
2740  logical volume are immediately available as protected pointers in
2741  G4VScene.
2742- Required G4VScene::Begin/EndModeling to be invoked from subclass.
2743- Introduced G4NullModel to hold modeling parameters.  This avoids
2744  having to create a G4VModel for each graphics primitive.
2745
2746HEAD  3rd April 1998  John Allison
2747- Added GetMarkerDiameter/Radius to G4VScene.
2748- Bug fix in G4VScene::GetMarkerSize.
2749- Removed GetCurrentPhysicalVolume from G4PhysicalVolumeModel - now in
2750  G4ModelingParameters (but might move again soon!).
2751- test/GNUmakefile now uses "$(MAKE) separate" for vis libraries.
2752- test19 recognises argument "1" as a verbose flag value.
2753
2754HEAD April 2, 98 G.Barrand
2755- Modifications for Win32/NT.
2756- G4VIS_BUILD_[OIX, OIWIN32]_DRIVER, G4VIS_USE_[OIX, OIWIN32]
2757
2758vis-00-05-02  26th March 1998  John Allison
2759- Added GetMarkerSize to G4VScene.
2760- Made ~G4VisManager virtual.
2761- Added current logical volume and current physical volume to working
2762  space in modeling parameters.  So it is no longer necessary to cast
2763  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel; all such casts removed.
2764- Moved nested classes out of G4RayView.
2765
2766HEAD March 24, 98 G.Cosmo
2767- Modified G4VisManMessExpert.cc to correctly use random numbers
2768  by calling directly G4UniformRand().
2769
2770HEAD March 24, 98 G.Barrand
2771- GNUmakefile : MAKESHLIB changed in G4MAKESHLIB
2772
2773vis-00-05-01a  24 March 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2774- Geometry tree can be obtained by, e.g.,
2775  % grep PVName g4.prim > g4.tree
2776
2777vis-00-05-01  23rd March 1998  John Allison
2778- Made RegisterGraphicsSystems pure virtual.
2779- Added verbose level control to printing at initialization.
2780- Fixed (hopefully) bug in scene deletion.
2781- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Text/Circle/Square) pure virtual.
2782  (Had to add dummy void G4VRML1SCENE::AddPrimitive (const G4Text&).)
2783- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) virtual again.
2784- Opened some .hh files to G4VIS_USE flags.
2785- Removed Pre/PostAddThis from some graphics systems (not OPACS, OI).
2786- First implementation of G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy (DTREE).
2787- Added Get Global/Current Tag/Description to G4VModel.
2788- Introduced "working space" in G4ModelingParameters for geometry depth.
2789- Relocated some template instantiation requests (might give trouble on DEC).
2790
2791vis-00-04-05a  16th March 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2792- DAWN driver outputs physical-volume names and copy number.
2793
2794vis-00-04-05  5th March 1998  John Allison
2795- Added G4Text/Circle/Square in G4RayScene.hh.

2882  It coworks (I hope - it's difficult to be 100% sure about
2883  this since I have a few changes for other categories in
2884  the pipeline - see previous email) with:
2885    digits+hits              digi-00-02-01
2886    events+tracks            event-00-02-01
2887    geometry                 HEAD
2888    global                   global-00-02-01
2889    intercoms                intercoms-00-02-01
2890    interfaces               interfaces-00-02-01

2895- Addition of:
2896    visualization/GNUmakefile.transition_to_G4VIS_BUILD
2897    visualization/GNUmakefile.transition_to_G4VIS_USE
2898    visualization/GNUmakefile.vis_cppflags_for_G4VIS_USE
2899  to turn the existing environment variables into the
2900  to-be-adopted G4VIS_... variables - see visualization/test/README.
2901- Consequent changes to other visualization GNUmakefiles.
2902- New way of instantiating graphics systems:
2903  Set the appropriate environment variables and include and
2904  compile G4VisRegisterGraphicsSystems.icc in your main():
2905    ...
2906    #include G4VisRegisterGraphicsSystems.icc
2907    ...
2908    main() {
2909      ...
2910- Added G4VisFeaturesOfXXX files which simple return a G4String.
2911 (Guy, Jeff, would you like to join this scheme?)
2912- Added commands /vis~/delete/scene and /vis~/delete/view.
2913- Added /vis~/show/view to test19.odb.
