22
235th November 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-01-04)
24- Protected against zero material pointer.
25
262nd November 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-01-03)
27- Rationalised G4Att loading and extended picking to hits.
28
291st November 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-01-02)
30- Follow changes to greps-V08-01-09: G4AttCheck/Holder rationalisation.
31
3226th October 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-01-01)
33- Added SoG4LineSet, SoG4MarkerSet and SoG4Polyhedron - classes extended to
34 include G4Atts (G4AttValues and G4AttDefs) for picking.
35- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc: Load lines, markers and polyhedron objects
36 with G4Atts.
37- G4OpenInventorViewer.cc: print G4Atts on picking.
38
3929th August 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-01-00)
40- G4OpenInventorViewer::CompareForKernelVisit: Rationalisation. This
41 assumes use of generic clipping (sectioning, slicing, DCUT,
42 cutaway). If a decision is made to implement locally, this will
43 need changing. See G4OpenGLViewer::SetView,
44 G4OpenGLStoredViewer.cc::CompareForKernelVisit and
45 G4OpenGLStoredSceneHander::CreateSection/CutawayPolyhedron.
46
474th June 2006 Joseph Perl (openinventor-V08-00-05)
48- This tag includes all the changes below.
49
502 June 2006 Guy Barrand :
51- G4OpenInvenot, G4OpenInvenotXt, G4OpenInvenotWin : have an Initialize
52 method in order to init Xt and Inventor only is really used
53 (when creating a viewer or a scene handler).
54
5519th April 2006 Gabriele Cosmo (openinventor-V08-00-04)
56- Use cmath instead of math.h.
57
5828th March John Allison (openinventor-V08-00-03)
59- Cosmetic.
60
6121st March John Allison (openinventor-V08-00-02)
62- Rationalised G4OpenInventorSceneHandler:
63 o Introduced GeneratePrerequisites.
64 o Uses dynamic_cast<G4PhysicalVolumeModel*>(fpModel) instead
65 of fpCurrentPV, etc.
66 o Uses G4VSceneHandler utility functions,
67 GetApplicableVisAttributes, GetColour, GetTextColour,
68 GetMarkerSize, GetDrawingStyle, GetAuxEdgeVisible, where possible.
69 o Revision 1.43: messy version with original code commented out.
70 o Revision 1.44 (.cc) and 1.28 (.hh) (tagged): tidied versions.
71- Investigated G4OpenInventorViewer:
72 o Changed: DrawDetector and UpdateScene. No noticeable effect!
73
7420th March John Allison
75- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler:
76 o Bug fix for transient solids.
77 o Replaced some code in AddPrimitive(const G4Polymarker&) by GetMarkerSize.
78 o Attempt to finish AddPrimitive (const G4Text&) - still draws at origin.
79
8030th January 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-00-01)
81- Implemented drawn volume path. Needs modeling-V08-00-01. Scene
82 graph now corresponds to drawn, i.e., non-culled geometry.
83 Inability to find (drawn) mothers shouldn't happen now, and it
84 triggers an error message.
85
8626th January 2006 John Allison (openinventor-V08-00-00)
87- Coworks with visman-V08-00-04 (removed fModified).
88- Removed references to fModified.
89
9020th December 2005 Guy Barrand
91- SoAlternateRepAction.cc : add the #ifdef G4VIS_BUILD_OI_DRIVER.
92
9312th December 2005 John Allison
94- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc: Pick up colour and transformation
95 correctly for non-physical-volume solids.
96 o G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Polyhedron&):
97 Added code to pick up colour if LV and PV pointers are zero.
98 o G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::BeginPrimitives: Pick up
99 transformation if LV and PV pointers are zero.
100 o G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::PreAddSolid: Added code to pick up
101 colour if LV and PV pointers are zero and removed return statement
102 so that transformation is picked up too.
103
10430th November 2005 Gabriele Cosmo (openinventor-V07-01-04)
105- Trivial fix to SoPolyhedron for support of CLHEP-2.0.X series.
106
10715th November 2005 Guy Barrand (openinventor-V07-01-03)
108- G4OpenInventorXtViewer : handle fVP.GetXGeometryString().
109- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler : handle global scale view parameter.
110 Done in BeginPrimitives and PreAddSolid by doing a
111 SbMatrix::multRight(sbScale) to the incoming global G4Transform3D matrix.
112- G4OpenInventor[Xt,Win]Viewer : handle set background. Done
113 in the overloaded SetView method.
114
11517th October 2005 Guy Barrand
116- G4OpenInventorViewer::G4OpenInventorViewer : read a g4view.iv
117 file at creating of a view. If found, the scene graph in g4view.iv
118 if added at head of the overall scene graph. This permits easy
119 out of band customization of the scene without having to touch
120 the code.
121- Modification in order to save geometry in an Inventor file.
122 Addition of an "alternateRep" for the SoPolyhedron (see Inventor doc).
123 Addition of an "alternateRep" for the SoDetectorTreeKit.
124 Addition of the SoAlternaterRepAction to traverse a scene graph
125 and construct / delete the alternate reps.
126 Modification of G4OpenInventorViewer::WriteInventor to write the
127 alternateRep of the SoPolyhedron and then save geometry in a
128 .iv file by using Inventor standard lib. In particular the produced
129 .iv files are readable by the ivview standard tool.
130
1312nd September 2005 John Allison (openinventor-V07-01-02)
132- Corrected treatment of edgeflags.
133
1341st August 2005 Gabriele Cosmo (openinventor-V07-01-01)
135- Fixed compilation errors and warnings on gcc-4.0.0. Modified files:
136 SoDetectorTreeKit.cc, gl2ps[.h.cc].
137
13820th July 2005 John Allison (openinventor-V07-01-00)
139- Changed Geant4_SoPolyhedron to construct from G4Polyhedron rather
140 than its base class, HepPolyhedron, for possible future
141 developments. Functionality unchanged.
142
1432nd June 2005 John Allison (openinventor-V07-00-02)
144- Changed char* to const char* in gl2psMsg.
145
14627th May 2005 John Allison (openinventor-V07-00-01)
147- Implemented marker sizes.
148
14925th May 2005 Guy Barrand (openinventor-V07-00-00)
150- G4OpenInventorTransform3D.cc : use the CLHEP::Transform3D::operator(i,j)
151 to initialize the m array in order to be compatible with new versions
152 of CLHEP.
153
15419th March 2005 Guy Barrand
155- SoCounterAction.cc : remove extra ';' at end of SO_ACTION_SOURCE.
156 Code with ';;' does not compile with the "-pedantic" mode of g++-3.4.
157
15826th November 2004 Guy Barrand (openinventor-V06-02-02)

163- G4OpenInventor[Viewer,SceneHandle] : handle aux edges.
164- G4OpenInventorViewer : in SetSolid, etc... avoid to do a FinishView
165 that will do a viewAll that may displace the camera.
166- G4OpenInventorViewer : put the camera under a group and put
167 a sensor (fGroupCameraSensor) on the group to detect that the viewer
168 changed the camera type.
169- G4OpenInventor[Xt,Win]Viewer : GetCamera() to get camera of the viewer.
170- G4OpenInventorViewer : delete fSoCameraSensor.
171
17224th November 2004 John Allison
173- Fixed SetView to respond to view parameters and CameraSensorCB to
174 provide view parameters. Target point not quite right. Only for
175 orthogonal view so far.
176
17724th November 2004 Guy Barrand
178- So*.cc : have #ifdef G4VIS_BUILD_OI_DRIVER instead of OIX_DRIVER !!!

194- G4OpenInventorViewer : commit commented SoNodeSensor on fSoCamera.
195- G4OpenInventorXtViewer : have a help dialog.
196- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler : delete the SbMatrix returned

198- G4OpenInventorTransform3D : use SbMatrix instead of SoSFMatrix.
199- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler : cache SoResetTransform.
200- SoStyleCache : destructor protected.
201- G4OpenInventor[Xt,Win]Viewer : Help pulldown menu.
202- G4OpenInventorViewer : in "Scene graph stats", count triangles,lines,points.
203- G4OpenInventorViewer : set auto refresh by default.
204
20521th November 2004 Guy Barrand
206- G4OpenInventor[Xt,Win]Viewer, SceneHandler : add a simple picking that
207 dumps picked SoNode address, type and name.
208- G4OpenInventor[Xt,Win]Viewer : "Help controls" menu item.
209- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::PreAddThis : comment the "ERROR leaf protocal"
210 message. Misleading to users.
211
21219th November 2004 Guy Barrand
213- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::ClearStore: clear the fSeparatorMap.
214
21518th November 2004 Guy Barrand

219- Removed redundant fLastVP from G4OpenInventorSceneHandler (JA).
220
22117th November 2004 Guy Barrand
222- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler : rm the AddThis(G4Box,....). We use
223 then only the generic AddPrimitive(G4Polyhedron). Much simpler.
224
22515th November 2004 Guy Barrand
226- G4OpenInventorViewer : //FIXME comment out on
227 f[Default]VP.SetCulling(false) by default. Not convinced that it is
228 the right thing to do.
229- G4OpenInventorViewer : have f[Default]VP.SetCulling(false) by default.
230- On viewer have "Erase detector, event" menuitems for Xt and Win.
231- G4OpenInventorWinViewer : have it inheriting G4OpenInventorViewer.
232- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler : WIN32 : correct some warnings.

237- G4OpenInventorViewer : base class for Inventor viewers.
238- Menuitem "Etc/Triangles" : to count rendered triangles.
239- Menuitem "File/IV" : to write the scene in an inventor file.
240
24114th November 2004 John Allison (openinventor-V06-02-01)
242- Tag on branch openinventor-V06-02-01-branch.
243- Consolidating the changes below, plus:
244 - forcing culling off by default;
245 - forcing solid mode;
246 so that the user:
247 - sees all of the requested geometry volume tree;
248 - can use pointer button and CTRL-left-click to uncover (SHIFT-left-click
249 to re-cover);
250 - can use the hand button and right-click to get wireframe.
251- Removed G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::EndModeling (empty function).
252
25312th November 2004 Guy Barrand
254- G4OpenInventor.cc : initClass of Geant4_SoPolyhedron.
255- G4OpenInventorWinViewer.cc : WM_COMMAND : filter only messages
256 from the window viewer menu.
257- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc : rm G4Polymarker::line handling.
258
25911th November 2004 Guy Barrand
260- Add SoPolyhedron that permits to visualize directly HepPolyhedron.
261- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::AddThis : uses the generic
262 SoPolyhedron. Modeling is wireFrame by default.
263 Solid modeling is used only in case visAtb.SetForceSolid(true).
264- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::PreAddThis : correct a flaw
265 in the non-leaf part ; in case mother not found in fSeparatorMap
266 the SoDetectorTreeKit were added nowhere ! This induced that
267 exaN03Vis5 displayed no gemetry.
268- SoStyleCache : permit to cache commonly used colors, line styles and
269 light models.
270- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler : use SoStyleCache to minimize number of nodes.
271- End of the first world war.
272- Death of Arrafat.
273
27410th November 2004 Guy Barrand
275- SoMarkerSet, SoGL2PSAction : corrections to work with SGI Inventor.
276- gl2ps : gl2psPrintPostScriptPixmap : fix nbit=2,4 width truncation.
277 (On SoMarkerSet, the last column of pixmapswere missing ).
278
2799th November 2004 Guy Barrand
280- WIN32 : G4OpenInventorWinViewer : have a File pulldown menu
281 with an Escape button to quit secondary Windows event loops.
282- Xt : G4OpenInventorXtViewer : in destructor comment (and //FIXME)
283 the "delete fViewer". With SGI, it hangs.
284- Xt : Have a menubar and put escape button in the File pulldown menu.
285- SoGL2PSAction, gl2ps : action to handle PostScript production with gl2ps.
286- Xt : "PostScript" menu item.
287- WIN32 : "PostScript" menu item.
288
2898th November 2004 Guy Barrand
290- WIN32 : Have HEPVis/SbGL.h to access GL.h properly on Windows.
291 Use by SoMarkerSet.cc.
292- G4OpenInventor.cc : initialize SoMarkerSet.
293- G4OpenInventorWinViewer : correct bad viewer look and feel.
294
2957th November 2004 Guy Barrand
296- Have SoMarkerSet.h, .cc in the repository.
297- G4OpenInventorSceneHandler :
298 Have a AddPrimitive(G4Polymarker) using SoMarkerSet.
299 SoMarkerSet draws markers in the frame buffer. It is much
300 more performant than having SoSphere and SoCube for markers.
301
3026th November 2004 Guy Barrand
303- G4OpenInventorXtViewer : restore the escape button.
304 This button is put in the "app buttons" of the SoXtExaminerViewer.
305 (The "app buttons" are put in the left border of decoration).
306 It is ok with SGI-2.1.510 and recent SoXt of Coin,
307
30821th July 2004 Guy Barrand (openinventor-V06-02-00)
309- G4OpenInventorXtViewer : add include X11/Shell.h to have
310 XtNgeometry that may not come throught the includes of some
311 Inventor implementation.
312
31308th April 2004 Guy Barrand (openinventor-V06-01-00)
314- Bring in the repository the necessary HEPVis code. In fact few of HEPVis
315 is used in this G4 driver. Then HEPVis is no more needed.
316 Note that, to avoid clashes of G4/vis within experiments, the HEPVis
317 node are protected by some : #define Geant4_<node> <node>. Then, for
318 example, within the G4OpenInventor lib there are Geant4_SoBox, etc...
319 (and not SoBox,... that may clash with other HEPVis code in experiments).
320- Have code to run on Windows.
321- Split Viewer to have G4OpenInventorXtViewer and G4OpenInventorWinViewer.
322- Split G4OpenInventor to have G4OpenInventorXt and G4OpenInventorWin.
323 Xt and Win (and not X and Win32 like in vis/OpenGL) to follow
324 the conventions found in the OpenInventor world.
325
32629th October 2003 Cosmo Gabriele (openinventor-V05-02-00)
327- Patch in G4OpenInventorSceneHandler in PreAddThis() to cope with changes
328 introduced in G4VPhysicalVolume in "geant4-05-02-ref-04", where pointer to
329 mother physical-volume was removed.
330 Separators map now refers to logical-volumes and is no longer built
331 iteratively for each call to the method as it was done in an attempt
332 implemented previously.
333 NOTE: requires more investigation and eventually a revision of the
334 adopted algorithm.
335- Cleared usage of 'NULL' in favour of '0'.
336
3374th October 2003 Cosmo Gabriele (vis-V05-02-01)
338- Simplified GNUmakefile.
339
34014th January 2003 John Allison (openinventor-V05-00-00)
341- Removed vertex.transform (*fpObjectTransformation) from
342 G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Polyhedron& polyhedron).
343 Symptom was that polyhedron objects were being transformed twice.
344 The transformation is stored in
345 G4OpenInventorSceneHandler::PreAddThis
346 ...
347 G4OpenInventorTransform3D oiTran (objectTransformation);
348 SoSFMatrix* oiMat = oiTran.GetOIMatrix();
349 SoMatrixTransform* xform = new SoMatrixTransform;
350 xform->matrix.setValue(oiMat->getValue());
351 currentSeparator->addChild(new SoResetTransform);
352 currentSeparator->addChild(xform);
353}
354
35527th November 2002 John Allison (vis-V04-01-08)
356- Improved algorithm of CompareForKernelVisit.
357
35814th August 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-11)
359- Improved KernelVisitDecision - but see note therein.
Note: See TracBrowser for help on using the repository browser.
