// Class Description:
//
// G4VVisManager is an abstract interface for the GEANT4 Visualization Manager.
// The inheritance hierarchy is:
//   G4VVisManager <- G4VisManager <- G4VisExecutive
//
// You may also write your own vis manager in place of G4VisExecutive.
//
// See example/novice/N02 to see how and when to instantiate
// G4VisExecutive (or your own vis manager).  You should *not* access
// it directly; instead you should obtain a pointer as follows:
// 
//   G4VVisManager* pVVMan =  G4VVisManager::GetConcreteInstance ();
//
// This ensures your code will link even if G4VisExecutive is not
// instantiated or even if not provided in a library.  Please protect
// your code by testing the pointer, for example, by:
//
//   if (pVVMan) pVVMan -> Draw (polyline);
//
// The Draw functions draw only "transient" objects.  This is useful
// for debugging, e.g., drawing the step in your UserSteppingAction,
// since G4Steps are not kept.
//
// Note: "permanent" objects, i.e., objects which are always
// available, such as detector geometry components, or available in an
// event after tracking has finished, such as hits, digitisations and
// trajectories, can be drawn in a transient way if you wish but it is
// usually possible to draw them in a permanent way with /vis/
// commands.  The advantage is that permanent objects can be redrawn,
// e.g., when you change view or viewer; transient objects get
// forgotten.  Also, it is possible to write a G4VUserVisAction class
// and register it to "promote" your Draw messages to "permanent" -
// see documentation.
//
// Note that the G4Transform3D argument refers to the transformation
// of the *object*, not the transformation of the coordinate syste.
//
// Note also that where a G4VisAttributes argument is specified, it
// overrides any attributes belonging to the object itself.
