8626th March 2006  John Allison  (vis-V08-00-00)
863- Collected tags below.  Main features since Release 8.0:
864  o Added /vis/scene/transientsAction.  The default is "rerun", i.e.,
865    when the viewer requests, the previous event or run will be
866    processed again with the original random number seed so that
867    transients (trajectories, hits, user drawing, etc.) are
868    reconstructed.  Thus, transients are "remembered" and may be
869    copied between graphics systems.  Turn off with
870    "/vis/scene/transientsAction none".
871  o Introduced /vis/geometry/... for editing vis attributes of
872    geometry volumes.
873  o For developers:
874    * Migration from use of Establish/DecommisionSpecials.
875    * Drawn path available.

1171- Added return type G4int to G4ViewParameters::SetNoOfSides and
1172  G4ModelingParameters::SetNoOfSides.  They return no. of sides, i.e.,
1173  sides per circle in polyhedron contruction, that are actually set;
1174  there is a lower limit of 12.
1175- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: bug fix: no. of rotation steps correctly applied.
1176
117710th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-11)
1178- Reviewed all vis commands.  Improved guidance, simplified and
1179  rationalised the commands.
1180
11819th March 2005  John Allison
1182- Removed "remove" and "edit" commands.
1183- G4VisManager: removed "Delete" methods. (Removing or deleting an
1184  existing scene, scene handler or viewer is very messy and not
1185  necessary.  When a user creates a new one, he/she may leave the old
1186  one around without harm.  It may be left unused or selected again later
1187  if the user wants.)
1188- Removed automatic parameter candidate specification for commands
1189  that take an argument that is a scene, scene handler or viewer
1190  name - it is checked in SetNewValue methods.  (The code was just
1191  too complicated and, anyway, the result hindered, rather than
1192  helped the user, because it restricted the parameter values and
1193  mis-typing gave obscure messages.  Now the messages are clearer and,
1194  as the guidance points out, the list of possible names can be
1195  obtained with a "list" command.)
1196- Made "list" commands flag current items.
1197- Improved guidance for /vis/scene commands.  Still to do (groan!):
1198    /vis/scene/add
1199    /vis/sceneHandler
1200    /vis/viewer
1201
12029th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-10, needs greps-V07-00-01)
1203- Refined logo and scale.
1204- Improved physical volume clipping.
1205- G4VisManager: Added default G4Transform3D::Identity to
1206  objectTransformation argument in Draw methods.
1207
12084th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-09)
1209- Added first implementation of cutaway - a clipping box for physical
1210  volume tree:
1211    vis/scene/add/volume ! ! ! box km 0 1 0 1 0 1
1212  (Does not seem properly to clip volumes wholly inside clipping volume.)
1213
12143rd March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-08)
1215- Introduced /vis/scene/add/logo.
1216- Added Set methods to G4VModel.
1217- Added argument to G4CallbackModel::operator()(const G4Transform3D&) so that
1218  the model could implement a given transformation.  Provided default for
1219  G4VUserVisAction::(const G4Transform3D& = G4Transform3D::Identity).
1220- Improved guidance for:
1221    compound commands
1222    ASCIITree commands
1223- Used std::istrstream::istrstream(std::string) throughout.
1224
122523rd February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-07)
1226- Protected scene handlers for the case of the drawing of solids NOT
1227  from a physical volume tree:
1228    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1229    G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
1230    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
1231    G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler.cc
1232    G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.cc
1233- Fixed a problem with ClearTransientStore.  ClearTransientStore
1234  should restrict itself to its job.  In the following files,
1235  ClearTransientStore also redraws the view.  In other places, a draw
1236  command often follows, so it is not needed here.  In fact it can
1237  cause a double recursive descent into DrawView, so the existing code
1238  has been commented out (JA - 23/Jan/05):
1239    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1240    G4HepRepFileSceneHandler.cc
1241    G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc
1242    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
1243    G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1244    G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1245    G4XXXSceneHandler.cc
1246- Removed (commented out) some code that forced extra kernel visits,
1247  purportedly to overcome a problem in OpenGLStored methods.  Let's
1248  fix OpenGL if necessary:
1249    G4VSceneHandler.cc
1250    G4VViewer.cc
1251- Commented out SetView and ClearView in /vis/viewer/refresh:
1252    G4VisCommandsViewer.cc
1253- Changed signature of G4VViewer::SetNeedKernelVisit(G4bool) for compatibility.
1254
125519th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-06 with greps-V07-00-00)
1256- Added G4VUserVisAction and G4CallbackModel.
1257- Implemented /vis/scene/add/userAction.
1258- Fixed bug in /vis/viewer/update (check existence of scene handler and scene).
1259
126015th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-05)
1261- Introduced drawing of readout geometry for logical volumes.
1262- For drawing of logical volumes, introduced boolean flags to control
1263  drawing of:
1264    o boolean components (if any)
1265    o voxels (if any) (note: voxels are not created until start of run)
1266    o readout geometry (if any)
1267- Augmented commands /vis/specify and /vis/scene/add/logicalVolume to use
1268  above flags.
1269- G4ASCIITree: Added printing of names of sensitive detector (if any) and
1270  readout geometry (if any).
1271
127215th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-04)
1273- Updated READMEs for G4VisExecutive.  Removed references to OPACS.
1274
12759th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-03)
1276- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound: fixed previously
1277  missed FukuiRendererSceneHander.
1278
12794th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-02)
1280- Introduced G4VisExecutive.  MyVisManager deprecated.
1281
128227th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-01, needs intercoms-V07-00-00)
1283- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound.
1284- AddSolid: Methods for adding solids to the scene handler.  They
1285  must always be called in the triplet PreAddSolid, AddSolid and
1286  PostAddSolid.  The transformation and visualization attributes
1287  must be set by the call to PreAddSolid.  A possible default
1288  implementation is to request the solid to provide a G4Polyhedron
1289  or similar primitive - see, for example, G4VSceneHandler.
1290- AddCompound: Methods for adding "compound" GEANT4 objects to the scene
1291  handler.  These methods may either (a) invoke "user code" that
1292  uses the "user interface", G4VVisManager (see, for example,
1293  G4VSceneHandler in the Visualization Category, which for
1294  trajectories uses G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory, via
1295  G4TrajectoriesModel in the Modeling Category) or (b) invoke
1296  AddPrimitives below (between calls to Begin/EndPrimitives) or (c)
1297  use graphics-system-specific code or (d) any combination of the
1298  above.
1299
130026th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-00)
1301- G4VisManager:: removed optional argument
1302  const G4Transform3D& objectTransformation = G4Transform3D::Identity
1303  from Draw methods for a hit and trajectory.
1304- Trapped illegal nesting of Begin/EndPrimitives.
1305- Added fpCurrentMaterial to G4VSceneHandler and relevant derived
1306  classes and models for work with G4PhysicalVolumeModel via
1307  EstablishSpecials.  So now, the material is also available (in addition
1308  to current depth, logical and physical volum) during drawing of geometry
1309  items.
1310- Changed ASCIITree to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume and
1311  G4LogicalVolume::GetMass.
1312- Changed G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume.
1313- Improved guidance for /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker.
1314- G4VisCommandsViewerSet: made Up and Viewpoint vectors unit for safety.
1315- Some additions to test area.
1316
131710th December 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-02-09)
1318- Replaced M_PI with CLHEP's pi.
1319
13207th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-08)
1321- Tagged right after migration to cmath
1322- All occurences of include <math.h> have now become include <cmath>.
1323- All math functions are now prefaced with std::
1324
13257th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-07)
1326- Tagged right before migration to cmath
1327
132826th November 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-06)
1329- Tagged for release 7.0.
1330- Made from vis-V06-02-05
1331- plus opengl-V06-02-07 by John Allison
1332- plus vis-HepRep-V06-02-02 by Mark Donszelmann
1333- plus openinventor-V07-00-00 by Guy Barrand
1334
133518th November 2004  John Allison
1336- Included opengl-V06-02-07.
1337
133811th November 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-05)
1339- Made use of smart method GetPolyhedron for solids.  This greatly
1340  speeds 2nd and subsequent drawings when kernel access is required.
1341- Rationalised use of EstablishSpecials: functionality moved to base class.
1342- Removed use of obsolete G4Polymarker::line.
1343
134422nd September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-04)
1345- Moved Doxyfile to management.  doxygen output to tmp area.
1346- modeling-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1347- vistree-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1348- opengl-V06-02-06 - Trap non-regular polyhedra and other small changes.
1349- DAWN-V06-02-00 - Improve diagnostic on trapping non-regular polyhedra.
1350- vistest-V06-02-02: refined rotated tube test.
1351
135213th September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-03)
1353- vistree-V06-02-00: Improved ASCIITree:
1354  verbosity >= 3: prints volume, density of all volumes in hierarchy.
1355  verbosity >= 4: calculates the mass of the complete geometry tree taking
1356    into account daughters up to the depth specified for each physical
1357    volume in the current scene.  Culling is ignored so that all volumes
1358    are processed.  The calculation is quite tricky, since it involves
1359    subtracting the mass of that part of the mother that is occupied by
1360    each daughter and then adding the mass of the daughter, and so on
1361    down the heirarchy.  Uses G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene - see below.
1362  Added option to write to file (/vis/ASCIITree/set/outFile).
1363- modeling-V06-02-00: Added G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene and improvements
1364  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  See modeling/History for more details.
1365- Removed obsolete file: G4VisToOldVisCommands.hh
1366- Corrected mistake in /vis/viewer/set/*Vector commands.
1367- Augmented ParameterisedBox and rotated a tracker tube in test directory.
1368- Brought README.built_in_commands up to date for Geant4 6.2.  Removed all
1369  references to old commands.'
1370
13713rd August 2004  John Allison
1372- Rationalised vis command code (uses G4UIcommand static conversion
1373  functions where possible).
1374- Removed G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle GetDrawingStyle (const
1375  G4Visible&).  Instead, developer has to:
1376    // Get vis attributes - pick up defaults if none.
1377    const G4VisAttributes* pVA =
1378      fpViewer -> GetApplicableVisAttributes (v.GetVisAttributes ());
1379  where v is the visible object (polyline, circle, polyhedron, etc.), and:
1380    // Get view parameters that the user can force through the vis
1381    // attributes, thereby over-riding the current view parameter.
1382    G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle drawing_style = GetDrawingStyle (pVA);
1383    G4bool isAuxEdgeVisible = GetAuxEdgeVisible (pVA);
1384  Most developers do this anyway, so the removed routine was redundant
1385  and resulting code is more efficient and transparent.  To get
1386  colour, the developer can pick up directly from the vis attrributes,
1387  pVA, obtained as above:
1388    const G4Colour& c = pVA -> GetColour ();
1389  or use a slightly less efficient method:
1390    const G4Colour& c = GetColour (v);
1391  where v is the visible object.
1392  Note that for text, the developer must use a different procedure,
1393  since the default text colour is determined by the default text vis
1394  attributes, which may be specified independent of default vis
1395  attributes of other types of visible objects.  A function,
1396  GetTextColour, is provided and the recommended use is:
1397    const G4Colour& c = GetTextColour (text);  // Picks up default if none.
1398- Rationalised use of vis attributes in OpenGL and XXX.
1399
140028th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-02 with greps-V06-02-00)
1401- Implemented force auxiliary edge visible feature of G4VisAttributes.
1402- Included openinventor-V06-02-00 (minor revision - Guy Barrand).
1403
140423rd July 2004  John Allison
1405- Added auxiliary edge visible flag to G4ViewParameters and a new
1406  command, /vis/viewer/set/auxiliaryEdge.  (Auxiliary edges are not
1407  genuine edges of the volume.  They may be in a curved surface made
1408  out of polygons, for example, or in plane surface of complicated
1409  shape that has to be broken down into simpler polygons.
1410  HepPolyhedron breaks all surfaces into triangles or quadrilaterals.
1411  There will be auxiliary edges for any volumes with a curved surface,
1412  such as a tube or a sphere, or a volume resulting from a Boolean
1413  operation.  Normally, they are not shown, but sometimes it is useful
1414  to see them.  In particular, a sphere, because it has no egdes, will
1415  not be seen in wireframe mode in some graphics systems unless this
1416  flag is turned on.)
1417
141816th July 2004  John Allison
1419- Refined forced wireframe algorithm - *always* force wireframe even
1420  if hidden line removal is specified.
1421- opengl-V06-02-04.
1422
142315th July 2004  John Allison
1424- Small improvement to G4XXX (sample graphics system).
1425
142614th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-01)
1427- Removed deprecated commands:
1428    /vis/viewer/show               (use /vis/viewer/update)
1429    /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi     (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsThetaPhi)
1430    /vis/viewer/lightsVector       (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsVector)
1431    /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi  (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointThetaPhi)
1432    /vis/viewer/viewpointVector    (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointVector)
1433  (See geant4/source/visualization/README.built_in_commands for list
1434  of current commands.)
1435- Tidied guidance for /vis/viewer/set.
1436- Included opengl-V06-02-03 (cosmetic).
1437
143814th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-00)
1439- opengl-V06-02-02 and vistest-V06-02-01:
1440  Hidden line *and/or* hidden surface removal now work for OGL*X and OGL*Xm.
1441
14421st July 2004  John Allison
1443- Correction to guidance of /vis/viewer/set/hiddenEdge.
1444- Small improvement to README of /vis/scene/add/axes.
1445- vistest-V06-02-00.
1446- opengl-V06-02-00.
1447- visman-V06-02-00: Fix for porting on gcc-3.4.0: made ProcessView()
1448  public, since used as private friend (Gabriele Cosmo).
1449
14509th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-03)
1451- Adopt G4DLLIMPORT/G4DLLEXPORT technique to handle extern simbols for
1452  allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1453- Minor correction in modeling/GNUmakefile for GLOBLIBS definition.
1454- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02b".
1455
14567th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-02)
1457- Includes "vis-HepRep-V06-01-04".
1458- Export extern symbols for allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1459  Modified files: G4RayTrajectory.hh, G4RayTrajectoryPoint.hh.
1460- GNUmakefiles: added definition of GLOBLIBS for DLLs support on Windows.
1461- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02a".
1462
14639th April 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-01-01 + interfaces-V06-01-00)
1464- Tagged OpenGL as below.  Joint with interfaces-V06-01-00.
1465
14667th April 2004  Guy Barrand
1467- visualization/OpenGL/* : use the G4OpenGL.hh file.
1468- Added : visualization/OpenGL/include/G4OpenGL.hh to encapsulate
1469  the include of gl/gl.h and gl/glu.h that may be platform dependant.
1470  It permits to rm some #ifdef WIN32 spread in the code. It opens also
1471  the way to the usage of the Apple OpenGL on a Mac.
1472
147314 March 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-00-01)
1474- HepRepFile handle duplicate ShowView.
1475- HepRepFile improve layering and hierarchy for hits.
1476
147717th February 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-00-00)
1478- Fixed bug #581: wrong order of statements in
1479  G4OpenGLXViewer::~G4OpenGLXViewer (see bug report).
1480
14811st December 2003  John Allison
1482- Added checks and minor improvment of behaviour at end of event and run:
1483  o G4VisManager::EndOfRun: added check on MarkForClearingTransientStore.
1484  o G4VisCommandsScene.cc: For "/vis/scene/endOf[Event|Run]Action refresh",
1485    SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(true).
1486
148727th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-06)
1488- Added /vis/scene/endOfRunAction.
1489- Includes vis-HepRep-V05-02-08.
1490- G4VisManager: Removed PrintAllGraphicsSystems and
1491  PrintInstalledGraphicsSystems.  They are difficult to maintain and
1492  are anyway not used.  (There remains PrintAvailableGraphicsSystems,
1493  which is much used, and iterates over instantiated graphics systems
1494  and needs no maintenance.)
1495
149620th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-05)
1497- Re-submitted.  Includes vis-HepRep-05-02-07: fixes compiler issues and
1498  other minor fixes.
1499
150014th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-04)
1501- Includes vis-HepRep-05-02-03: new HepRep XML driver for HepRep Version 2.
1502- Bug fix in G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.
1503
150412th November 2003  John Allison
1505- Bug in /vis/scene/add/volume: requestedDepthOfDescent now correctly
1506  propagated to "world" volume.
1507- modeling-V05-02-02: G4PhysicalVolumeModel: CalculateExtent always
1508  searches complete hierarchy.
1509- Change initialisation of G4VSceneHandler so that there is always a
1510  clear on first drawing  - fMarkForClearingTransientStore(true).
1511- Removed redundant code from G4VisManager::::EndOfRun.
1512
15136th November 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-03)
1514- management:
1515  o G4VisManager: improved handling of auto refresh at end of event and run.
1516  o G4VisCommandsScene: improved endOfEventAction and improved guidance.
1517  o GNUmakefile: rationalised.
1518- GNUmakefile: removed G4LIBDIR and G4TMPDIR.
1519- RayTracer/GNUmakefile: rationalised (raytracer-V05-02-04).
1520- Tree: improved printing.
1521- G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc: changed const char* pv_name to G4String pv_name.
1522- G4XXXViewer: improved comments.
1523- modeling: GNUmakefile: rationalised (modeling-V05-02-01).
1524- test: changed MyPhysicsList to follow kernel changes.
1525
15264th November 2003  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V05-02-02)
1527- Includes removal of OPACS module.
1528- Includes "modeling-V05-02-00".
1529
153017th October 2003  Guy Barrand
1531- OPACS being (for long) deprecated, remove OPACS related things
1532  in Geant4 repository.
1533
15344th October 2003  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V05-02-01)
1535- Modified GNUmakefiles:
1536  o added dependency to new module "geometry/navigation".
1537  o replaced "digits+hits" with "digits_hits".
1538- Coworks with "geometry-V05-02-00" and "digits_hits-V05-02-00".
1539
154022nd September 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-00, greps-V05-02-00)
1541- Incorporates raytracer-V05-02-01 (needs greps-V05-02-00) - see
1542  RayTracer/History:
1543  o Introduced G4VRTScanner.
1544  o Added /vis/rayTracer/backgroundColour.
1545- Introduced Doxygen documentation for management, OpenGL and test.
1546- Improved guidance for /vis/scene/notifyHandlers.
1547- OpenGL: Cosmetic change to regularise names.
1548
15492nd September 2003  John Allison
1550- Fixed pedantic warnings etc. in test suite - see test/History.
1551
15522nd June 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-01-01)
1553- Small fix for pedantic warnings in RayTracer.
1554
155530th May 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-01-00 - does not include HepRep below)
1556- Improved README.built_in_commands.  Removed unlikely-to-be-implemented
1557  commands.
1558- Eliminated pedantic warnings.
1559
156028th February 2003  Joseph Perl
1561- Minor Fix to HepRep - see History file.
1562
156320th January 2003  John Allison
1564- Changed "/vis/scene/add/trajectories [<drawing-mode>]" so that if
1565  the command is issued more than once on any given scene, the last
1566  command takes effect, i.e., so that the last value of drawing-mode

1813- (Non-standard tag JA-RAEOE.)
1814
181510th September 2001  John Allison  (not tagged but needs greps-V03-02-04)
1816- Added BeginOfRun, BeginOfEvent and EndOfRun to G4VisManager, invoked via
1817  G4VisStateDependent.
1818- Improved handling of refresh-at-end-of-event.  All scene handlers need to
1819  implement ClearTransientStore and ensure rebuilding of permanent store if
1820  necessary.
1821- Auto-refresh (notifyHandlers) after attaching scene.
1822- Changed default colour of scale to red and fixed a couple of small bugs in
1823  the implementation of AddPrimitive(G4Scale).

1845
184617th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-12)
1847- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-04.
1848- Added G4VisManager::Draw(const G4Scale&,...  Needs intercoms-V03-02-04.
1849- Added template graphics system XXX.
1850- Improved verbosity guidance.
1851
185214th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-11)
1853- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-03.
1854- Moved default value G4Transform3D::Identity of argument from
1855  G4VSceneHandler::BeginPrimitives to
1856  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginPrimitives.  Needs intercoms-V03-02-03.
1857- Fixed bug in G4VSceneHandler::AddPrimitive(const G4Scale&).  Needs
1858  greps-V03-02-02.
1859- Added sceneHandler.Begin/EndPrimitives messages to models (long
1860  standing bug!).
1861- Removed "dummy" graphics systems in G4VisManager.cc.
1862- Improved robustness of some commands, particularly
1863  /vis/scene/notifyHandlers.
1864- Improved support for multiple viewers (but see OpenGL/History).
1865
186611th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-01)
1867- Implemented /vis/scene/endOfEventAction.
1868
18699th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-00)
1870- Note: non-standard tag to indicate internal use only.
1871- Added /vis/scene/create at start of compound command /vis/open to avoid
1872  warnings.
1873- Removed G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy.  It is no longer used.  The
1874  textual or graphical representation of the geometry hierarchy is now
1875  done in G4xxxTree classes in visua;ization/Tree.
1876- Removed /vis/scene/notifyHandlers from
1877  G4VVisCommandScene::UpdateVisManagerScene - too much updating going on.
1878  It was leading to recursive refreshing/updating.
1879- Implemented auto-refresh at end of event.  (See also OpenGL/History.)
1880  Introduced G4VSceneHandler::Get/SetMarkForClearingTransientStore for
1881  postponed (lazy) clearing of transients (e.g., trajectories) from store
1882  (graphical database) and view.  The mark is set at the end of
1883  G4VisManager::EndOfEvent and the actual clearing is done in:
1884    void G4VisManager::ClearTransientStoreIfMarked(){
1885      // Assumes valid view.
1886      if (fpSceneHandler->GetMarkForClearingTransientStore()) {
1887        fpSceneHandler->SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(false);
1888        fpSceneHandler->ClearTransientStore();
1889      }
1890    }
1891  which is called at the start of each G4VisManager::Draw and the beginning
1892  of G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.  Thus the picture stays from the end of all
1893  drawing for the event until the first drawing of the next event.
1894   
18955th August 2001  John Allison
1896- Small refinements to printing under new verbosity control.
1897
18984th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10)
1899- Re-implemented verbosity control.  Output statements wherever possible
1900  are controlled by the verbosity in a simple graded message scheme:
1901    enum Verbosity {
1902      quiet,         // Nothing is printed.
1903      startup,       // Startup and endup messages are printed...
1904      errors,        // ...and errors...
1905      warnings,      // ...and warnings...
1906      confirmations, // ...and confirming messages...
1907      parameters,    // ...and parameters of scenes and views...
1908      all            // ...and everything available.
1909    };
1910  Note that the G4VisManager member object name and type have changed:
1911    Verbosity             fVerbosity;  // New.
1912    const G4int           fVerbose;
1913    // fVerbose is kept for backwards compatibility for some user
1914    // examples.  (It is used in the derived user vis managers to print
1915    // available graphics systems.)  It is initialised to 1 in the
1916    // constructor and cannot be changed.
1917
19183rd August 2001  John Allison
1919- Added README.quick, a quick installation guide.
1920
192130th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-09)
1922- Eliminated view parameters from G4VisManager.  Now, each view maintains its
1923  own parameters.  Can be copied from one view to another with:
1924    /vis/viewer/set/all <from-viewer-name>
1925    Copies view parameters from from-viewer to current viewer.
1926    Affects current viewer.
1927- Removed redundant methods from G4VisManager, mostly to do with old-style
1928  commands.
1929
193027th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-08)
1931- Needs config-V03-02-01.
1932- Introduced environment variable G4VIS_NONE that, if set, no visualization
1933  drivers are built and no vis libraries are built, not even
1934  libG4vis_management.  (libG4modeling is still built.)  The C-pre-processor
1935  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are *not* set.
1936- Removed the need to specify environment variables for visualization drivers
1937  which do not need external packages or libraries, namely :
1938      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWNFILE_DRIVER
1939      G4VIS_BUILD_RAYTRACER_DRIVER
1940      G4VIS_BUILD_VRMLFILE_DRIVER
1941      G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1942      G4VIS_BUILD_GAGTREE_DRIVER
1943    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1944      G4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE
1945      G4VIS_USE_RAYTRACER
1946      G4VIS_USE_VRMLFILE
1947      G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1948      G4VIS_USE_GAGTREE
1949  For backwards compatibility, unless G4VIS_NONE is set, the corresponding
1950  C-pre-processor variables are automatically set.  Also, the C-pre-processor
1951  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are set.
1952- As before, environment variables for other drivers still need positive
1953  setting of their G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE environment variables.  In this
1954  category are:
1955      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWN_DRIVER
1956      G4VIS_BUILD_OPACS_DRIVER
1957      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLX_DRIVER
1958      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLWIN32_DRIVER
1959      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLXM_DRIVER
1960      G4VIS_BUILD_OIX_DRIVER
1961      G4VIS_BUILD_OIWIN32_DRIVER
1962      G4VIS_BUILD_VRML_DRIVER
1963    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:

207321st May 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-02)
2074- Minor bug corrections (mostly to fix things that used to work with the
2075  old /vis~/ commands but ceased to work with the new /vis/commands:
2076  o If a scene is empty at drawing time, the "world" is added.
2077  o Window size hint now works for OpenGL.
2078- Fixed some minor warnings for strict C++ (size_t, etc.).
2079

2087
20883rd May 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-01)
2089- Changes for greps-V03-01-01 (elimination of RW).
2090- Improvements in /vis/scene/add/volume.
2091- Added /vis/drawTree.
2092
209310th April 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-00)
2094- Added two new commands:
2095    /vis/scene/add/text
2096    /vis/scene/add/axes
2097- Added first version of ASCIITree to dump geometry hierarchy to
2098  standard output as ASCII stream.
2099  This requires two new environment variables:
2100    G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
2101    G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
2102  and config-V03-01-00.
2103
21042nd April 2001  John Allison
2105- Tidied OpenGL (opengl-V03-00-01) - see OpenGL/History.

21072nd April 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-09)
2108- Fixed some warnings from DEC cxx.
2109
211015th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-08)
2111- Changed rotation of phi-replicas in G4PhysicalVolumeModel.cc to
2112  ensure correspondence with rule that phi=0 bisects the replica.
2113  WARNING: Prior to this fix the graphics did NOT correspond to the
2114  replica navigation.  If you have been relying on the graphics to
2115  position daughter volumes in a phi-replica, navigation will have
2116  been incorrect, possibly without causing a crash.  The above fix
2117  will change the apparent position as shown by the graphics and you
2118  will have to correct the positioning of daughters.  Make sure the
2119  diaghters are all properly enclosed within the replica.  Graphics
2120  and navigation now correspond,
2121
21227th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-07)
2123- Cosmetic corrections for ISO compliance.

2127
21284th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-05)
2129- Reverted to /vis/viewer commands updating vis manager's view parameters.
2130  Otherwise this can have a big effect on users if old commands are still
2131  being used.  Let's schedule this change for the next version of Geant4.
2132- Added the following new commands:
2133  /vis/enable [true|false]
2134  /vis/disable
2135  /vis/verbose [<verbosity-integer>]
2136  /vis/viewer/set/lineSegmentsPerCircle  [<number-of-sides-per-circle>]
2137  /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane ...
2138  Only /vis/scene/add/text and /vis/scene/add/axes to go!!!
2139
21404th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-04)
2141- /vis/viewer commands no longer update vis manager's view parameters.
2142- Most /vis~/ copmmands give DEPRECATED warning, except:
2143  /vis~/draw/axes
2144  /vis~/draw/text
2145  /vis~/set/section_plane
2146  /vis~/set/sides
2147  /vis~/set/verbose
2148  which have still to be re-implemented.  All /vis~/ commands are still
2149  available through /vis/ for the time being.  (Window size hint no longer
2150   works.)
2151- Added "auto refresh" to view parameters.
2152- Added "default" view parameters to viewers.
2153- Made OpenGL viewers "auto refresh" by default.
2154- Added:
2155  /vis/viewer/set/autoRefresh
2156  /vis/viewer/set/projection

2158  /vis/drawView [<theta-deg>] [<phi-deg>]
2159                [<pan-right>] [<pan-up>] [<pan-unit>]
2160                [<zoom-factor>]
2161                [<dolly>] [<dolly-unit>]
2162
21634th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-03)
2164- Added several new vis commands:
2165  /vis/viewer/dolly
2166  /vis/viewer/dollyTo
2167  /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi
2168  /vis/viewer/lightsVector
2169  /vis/viewer/pan
2170  /vis/viewer/panTo

2176  /vis/viewer/set/lightsMove
2177
21783rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-02)
2179- Tidied for CodeWizard.  Small changes to many files in management, modeling
2180  and OpenGL.
2181
21821st February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-01)
2183- Fixed cause of crash when setting viewpoint before creating scene (Bug #157).
2184  Solution: SetView no longer called when view parameters are changed.  In
2185  any case it's called just before drawing, whixh is the right place.
2186- Fixed /vis/set/sides problem (Satoshi Tanaka) (Bug #204).
2187  Solution: Update view's view parameters in /vis/set/sides - had somehow
2188  been overlooked.
2189
219025th January 2001  John Allison
2191- Added protection against empty G4Polyhedron objects.
2192   FukuiRenderer/src/G4FRSceneFunc.icc

2194   OpenGL/src/G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
2195   OpenInventor/src/G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc
2196   VRML/src/G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
2197   VRML/src/G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
2198
219925th January 2001  John Allison  (opengl-V03-00-00)
2200- Fixed Bug #120.  Implemented running re-calculation of up-vector in
2201  the case of "object rotation" (lights move with camera) to prevent
2202  "flipping" of view when camera passes through up-vector.  Note that
2203  the default is "camera rotation" (lights do not move with camera,
2204  i.e., remain fixed relative to object) so the default is that this
2205  "flipping" can happen.  To set "object rotation" (lights move with
2206  camera) use /vis/lights/move_with_camera true (soon to be
2207  /vis/viewer/set/lights move-with-camera) or click "Object" radio
2208  button on Rotation Panel in OpenGLXm mode.
2209- Changed some objects to references for efficiency.  E.g.:
2210  const G4Vector3D& vp = pView->fVP.GetViewpointDirection ().unit ();
2211
221218th January 2001  John Allison
2213- Corrected G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  This corrects a bug whereby the
2214  requested drawing of a physical volume and its decendants starting
2215  at a depth greater than 2 was incorrectly positioned on the screen.
2216- /vis/scene/include commands withdrawn - use equivalent commands
2217  /vis/scene/add.
2218- OpenGL: cosmetic and minor performance improvements.
2219
222016th January 2001  John Allison  (vis-03-00-00)
2221- All vis commands "available" in all G4 states.
2222- Other small cosmetic changes to commands.
2223- OpenGL: square and circle markers correctly rendered.
2224  Note: subsequent rotations in stored mode also rotate these markers.
2225- Some small changes to test  - see test/History.
2226
22272nd November 2000  Gunter Folger  (vis-V02-00-02)
2228- Added targets includes and clean_libs to visualization/GNUmakefile.

2238- Corrected "scene" where it should read "scene handler" in some
2239  comments and output statements.
2240
22413rd July 2000  John Allison
2242- Explicitly initialised all data members of G4ViewParameters in constructor.
2243

2245- Tagged for system testing.
2246
22478th June 2000  Guy Barrand
2248- OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc : correct polyhedron
2249  wire-frame in order to remove some edges. Now the
2250  rendering is the same than for OpenGL driver.
2251   This was requested for long by ALICE, and had been
2252  requested for ATLAS by Gaston Parrour recently.
2253
22547th June 2000  John Allison
2255- /vis/viewer/update preferred, synonym /vis/viewer/show deprecated.
2256

230811th May 2000  Satoshi Tanaka vis-V01-01-03
2309- In G4DAWNFILEViewer.cc,
2310  <       strcpy( fPSViewer, "ghostview" );

2339- Updated README file.
2340
234112th April 2000  John Allison  vis-V01-01-01
2342- Made G4PhysicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid virtual.
2343- G4PhysicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid no longer deals with composite
2344  solids - now programmed into CompositeSolid::CreatePolyhedron, where
2345  CompositeSolid means G4IntersectionSolid, G4SubtractionSolid and
2346  G4UnionSolid.
2347- G4PhysicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid no longer deals with displaced
2348  solids - now programmed into G4DisplacedSolid::CreatePolyhedron.
2349- Added G4LogicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid, which explicitly adds
2350  components of composite solids as white forced-wireframe objects.
2351- Removed unnecessary #includes from G4VSceneHandler.hh which required
2352  consequent inclusion in many other scene handlers and viewers.
2353
23547th April 2000  John Allison  vis-V01-01-00
2355- Modified GNUmakefiles for restructured geometry.

2518- G4GoSceneHandler.cc/G4GoSceneHandler::EndPrimitives : modify
2519  the logic of setting the OMatrix for Go objects in order
2520  to avoid the usage of the CLHEP/Rotation.getAngleAxis that
2521  clearly has precision problem on some platforms (at least
2522  Linux and HP-UX).

2625          - Added (long unsigned int) cast in G4OpenGLXmRotationCallbacks.cc.
2626          - Added SetView and ShowView to G4OpenGLXViewer:
2627              // To force change of context...
2628              void G4OpenGLXViewer::SetView () {
2629                glXMakeCurrent (dpy, win, cx);
2630                G4OpenGLViewer::SetView (); 
2631              }
2632              // Hopefully to get better flushing in DEC OpenGL...
2633              void G4OpenGLXViewer::ShowView () {
2634                glXWaitGL ();
2635                glFlush ();
2636              }
2637
2638
2639vis-01-00-04 11th January 1999  John Allison

2660
2661vis-00-04-03  9th December 1998  John Allison
2662- Made /vis/ commands from /vis~/.  The idea is to maintain backwards
2663  compatibility while allowing us to "deprecate" the old commands over
2664  a period of time.  Some of these /vis/ commands respond with "superceded",
2665  i.e., superceded by new commands, but still available in /vis~/.
2666- OpenGL viewing volume increased by 20% to prevent corners being clipped.
2667
2668- 08/12/98 : G.Barrand : OpenInventor : due to
2669  huge load problems on various platforms, init only
2670  the HEPVis things that are needed.

2684  G4ModelingParameters and G4ViewParameters.
2685- G4PhysicalVolumeModel can now handle invisible daughters.
2686- More new /vis/ commands - depends on intercoms-00-04-01.
2687- G4VScene passes DefaultVisAttributes* to ModelingParameters.
2688
2689vis-00-03-07  23rd November 1998  John Allison.

2704- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is added to
2705  management/include/MyVisManager.cc.
2706
2707vis-00-03-05  9th November 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2708- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is commited:
2709 (1) Generatin of VRML 2.0 format files to describe Geant4 simulation.
2710 (2) Interactive displaying of physiccal-volume names and copy numbers
2711 (3) Interactive displaying of hit positions (displayed strings are
2712     costomizable.
2713 (4) Wireframe drawing style of Geant4 visualization is reflected as
2714     transparency = 0.7.  This value is customizable.
2715     If transparency is 1.0, drawing of detector geometry is skipped,
2716     and hits can be picked easily.
2717
27186th November 1998  John Allison
2719- Implemented basic /vis/viewer commands.
2720- Added `const G4String& name' argument to G4VScene and G4VView constructors.
2721
2722vis-00-03-04  30th October 1998  John Allison
2723- Tagged.
2724
272529th October 1998  Guy Barrand
2726- G4OpenGLXView.hh, G4OpenGLXmView.cc, G4OpenGLXmWindowHandlingCallbacks.cc
2727  in order that things compile and compile without warnings on HP/aCC
2728
272914th October 1998  John Allison
2730- Augmented the new /vis/ commands.  Still not complete but they
2731  co-work with the old commands.
2732- Changed char* fName to G4String fName in G4VScene and G4VView.
2733  Consequent changes in G4OpenGLView.  Also OpenInventor?  Etc.
2734
273511th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2736- added (not a very good) version of hidden lines removal code. This code
2737  suffers from depth buffering artefacts. glPolygonOffset is a feature of
2738  OpenGL version 1.1, and can help overcome depth buffer problems. The code
2739  to utilise glPolygonOffset is committed, but commented out, as it doesn't
2740  seem to work with the version of Mesa available on rsplus currently. My
2741  ideal strategy is to enable depth testing, draw the model as lines, enable
2742  filled polygon offsetting (glPolygonOffset(1.0 /*offset scale factor*/,
2743  2/*offset bias*/); glEnable (GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILLED);) then draw the
2744  model as filled polygons. The offsetting should just add `2' (in window
2745  coordinates, I think) onto the z value of all vertices relating to filled
2746  polygons, thus dismissing the conflict between almost identical z values
2747  for lines and filled polygon edges.
2748
2749vis-00-03-03 9th October 1998  John Allison
2750- G4VisManager inherits G4VStateDependent.  This is used to draw
2751  end-of-event models.
2752
27534th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2754- Added ability for all G4OpenGLX derived graphics systems to produce
2755  vectored PostScript hardcopy. Facility for `automated screen dump'
2756  (i.e. pixmap output) still kept, as some rasterization features
2757  don't make it into the vectored PostScript output (such as haloing
2758  effects). Facility currently available via G4OpenGLXm by clicking
2759  `Miscellany' then `Create .eps file', to get a popup printing
2760  window.
2761
2762vis-00-03-02a  26th September 1998 
2763- DAWNFILE driver is made platform dependent.
2764  (It is now compilable both at both Unix and NT without necessity
2765   of C macros like WIN32.)
2766
2767vis-00-03-02  25th September 1998 
2768- DAWNFILE driver is ported to VC++
2769

2839
28404th August 1998 Andy Walkden
2841I made some changes to OpenGL code...
2842The changes are (i) to tidy up some redundant hidden line
2843removal function calls, (ii) to put some hidden line removal
2844code in G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive(G4Polyhedron) and
2845(iii) to add an option to generate an encapsulated postscript
2846file of the current view in OpenGLXm. There is now a button
2847in the Miscellany pulldown of the main menubar to bring up
2848a shell in which you can specify a filename, colour or black
2849and white and request the creation of a .eps file. The
2850code is to be found in G4OpenGLXView, and so is not bound
2851to the Xm user. Also it needs fixing for some Mesa
2852implementations, and the HP CDE environment manages to stuff
2853things up when rendering to a pixmap (although CDE makes a
2854mess of most other things as well, so this isn't
2855disastrous).
2856
2857
2858vis-00-01-08  21th July 1998  John Allison
2859- Removed automatic refresh from /vis/camera/reset in G4VisCommandsCamera.cc.
2860
2861vis-00-01-07b  21th July 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2862- Revised G4FRSCENE::SendBoundingBox() so that
2863  zooming polycy of  DAWN drivers becomes consistent with
2864  OpenGL drivers
2865
2866vis-00-01-07  20th July 1998  John Allison

2868  before geometry is available.
2869
2870vis-00-01-06  19th July 1998  John Allison
2871- Default culling: culling - on, culling of invisible objects - on.
2872- set/drawing_style does *not* change culling flags.

2951
2952vis-00-06-03  27th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2953- DAWNFILE driver is added. It is to generate g4.prim file
2954  under the current directory.  And make DAWN or DAVID invoke
2955  using the g4.prim file as an input. For details, see the blackboard
2956  document.
2957
295821st May 1998 Andy Walkden
2959- Added hidden line removal code to G4OpenGLView. HLR utilises OpenGL's
2960  stencil buffer, but still the drawn lines are a little fragmented
2961  (an effect seen often when depth buffering is used to resolve pixel
2962  rendering disputes).
2963- HLR requires wireframe rendering, filled polygon rendering and then wireframe
2964  rendering again. Hence, three visits to the kernel help to slow HLR
2965  rendering right down.
2966
2967vis-00-06-02  20th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2968- Added G4VisFeaturesOfDAWNFILE.hh, cc
2969- Revised visualization/GNUmakefile, GNUmakefile.G4VIS_BUILD,
2970  GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE
2971- These are for DAWNFILE driver in preparation, which enables to
2972  invoke DAVID directly from Geant4.

2979  Establish/DecommissionSpecials (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2980  G4VGraphicsScene with implementation of the former in G4VScene.
2981  Modified G4PhysicalVolumeModel to use it; also protected
2982  G4PhysicalVolumeModel against non-implementation of
2983  Establish/DecommissionSpecials.
2984- Template instantiations in G4RayView made exclusive to GNU_GCC
2985- Some minor changes under test - see test/History.
2986

2989  type of (inherits from) G4OpenGLXView.
2990- made code for haloing effects common to all OpenGL views.
2991- changed XUnmapWindow in G4OpenGLXView::~G4OpenGLXView to XDestroyWindow
2992  (idea of Guy's)
2993

3005- Removed #if GNU_GCC from template instantiation requests in test19.cc.
3006- Added fDefaultTextVisAttributes to G4ViewParameters.
3007- Added G4VScene::GetTextColour (changed G4FukuiRendererScene, G4GoScene and
3008  G4OpenInventorScene.
3009- Changed default view parameters: culling on and invisible object culling on.
3010- Tidied CreateScene/View.
3011- Continued BaBar development.
3012
301315th April 1998  John Allison
3014- Added test/EucIntfce/, test/Bogus/ and test/babar_utils/ for BaBar test code.
3015  Also a new main() in BaBarCallListTest.cc.  Also a data file call_list.dat.
3016  See babar_utils/README.
3017- Camera commands, except spin and orbit, no longer initiate draw.
3018- Text is blue for time being (visible on black or white background.)
3019

3023
3024vis-00-05-04a  11th April 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
3025- Code improvements in DAWN driver
3026- (1) View parameters are sent to DAWN only at drawing times.
3027- (2) Way of getting marker size are made simpler by using
3028-     G4VScene::GetMarkerRadius ()  etc.
3029
3030vis-00-05-04  8th April 1998  John Allison
3031- Small bug fix - then tag for Easter.
3032
3033HEAD  6th April 1998  John Allison
3034- Added error printing to G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text).
3035- Added /vis~/draw/text.
3036- Added units to /vis~/draw/axes.
3037- Began the job of restructuring vis commands; so there is a new class
3038  G4VisCommandsCameraMessengers for starters!
3039
3040HEAD  4th April 1998  John Allison
3041- Removed automatic drawing after /vis~/set commands.  Now an explicit
3042  redraw is necessary, but it allows you to change parameters during
3043  building a view.  For example to superimpose projected hits on a
3044  section:
3045    /vis~/clear/view
3046    /vis~/set/section_plane on 0 0 20 cm 0 0 1
3047    /vis~/draw/current
3048    /vis~/set/section_plane off
3049    /run/beamOn
3050- Fixed small bug in OpenGL for section drawing.
3051- Made some small improvements in G4ViewParameters.
3052
3053vis-00-05-03  4th April 1998  John Allison
3054- Re-engineered maintenance of current depth, etc.  Needed new method
3055  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginModeling (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
3056  graphics_reps.  The result is much cleaner model and modeling
3057  parameters classes.  Also, the current depth, physical volume and
3058  logical volume are immediately available as protected pointers in
3059  G4VScene.
3060- Required G4VScene::Begin/EndModeling to be invoked from subclass.
3061- Introduced G4NullModel to hold modeling parameters.  This avoids
3062  having to create a G4VModel for each graphics primitive.
3063
3064HEAD  3rd April 1998  John Allison
3065- Added GetMarkerDiameter/Radius to G4VScene.
3066- Bug fix in G4VScene::GetMarkerSize.
3067- Removed GetCurrentPhysicalVolume from G4PhysicalVolumeModel - now in
3068  G4ModelingParameters (but might move again soon!).
3069- test/GNUmakefile now uses "$(MAKE) separate" for vis libraries.
3070- test19 recognises argument "1" as a verbose flag value.
3071
3072HEAD April 2, 98 G.Barrand
3073- Modifications for Win32/NT.
3074- G4VIS_BUILD_[OIX, OIWIN32]_DRIVER, G4VIS_USE_[OIX, OIWIN32]
3075
3076vis-00-05-02  26th March 1998  John Allison
3077- Added GetMarkerSize to G4VScene.
3078- Made ~G4VisManager virtual.
3079- Added current logical volume and current physical volume to working
3080  space in modeling parameters.  So it is no longer necessary to cast
3081  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel; all such casts removed.
3082- Moved nested classes out of G4RayView.
3083
3084HEAD March 24, 98 G.Cosmo
3085- Modified G4VisManMessExpert.cc to correctly use random numbers
3086  by calling directly G4UniformRand().
3087
3088HEAD March 24, 98 G.Barrand
3089- GNUmakefile : MAKESHLIB changed in G4MAKESHLIB
3090
3091vis-00-05-01a  24 March 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
3092- Geometry tree can be obtained by, e.g.,
3093  % grep PVName g4.prim > g4.tree
3094
3095vis-00-05-01  23rd March 1998  John Allison
3096- Made RegisterGraphicsSystems pure virtual.
3097- Added verbose level control to printing at initialization.
3098- Fixed (hopefully) bug in scene deletion.
3099- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Text/Circle/Square) pure virtual.
3100  (Had to add dummy void G4VRML1SCENE::AddPrimitive (const G4Text&).)
3101- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) virtual again.
3102- Opened some .hh files to G4VIS_USE flags.
3103- Removed Pre/PostAddThis from some graphics systems (not OPACS, OI).
3104- First implementation of G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy (DTREE).
3105- Added Get Global/Current Tag/Description to G4VModel.
3106- Introduced "working space" in G4ModelingParameters for geometry depth.
3107- Relocated some template instantiation requests (might give trouble on DEC).
3108
3109vis-00-04-05a  16th March 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
3110- DAWN driver outputs physical-volume names and copy number.
3111
3112vis-00-04-05  5th March 1998  John Allison
3113- Added G4Text/Circle/Square in G4RayScene.hh.
3114- Added G4Text/Circle/Square in G4BoundingSphereScene.hh.
