625- Collected tags below.  Main features since Release 8.0:
626  o Added /vis/scene/transientsAction.  The default is "rerun", i.e.,
627    when the viewer requests, the previous event or run will be
628    processed again with the original random number seed so that
629    transients (trajectories, hits, user drawing, etc.) are
630    reconstructed.  Thus, transients are "remembered" and may be
631    copied between graphics systems.  Turn off with
632    "/vis/scene/transientsAction none".
633  o Introduced /vis/geometry/... for editing vis attributes of
634    geometry volumes.
635  o For developers:
636    * Migration from use of Establish/DecommisionSpecials.

80212th October 2005  John Allison (vis-V07-01-03)
803- G4VisCommandsViewer.cc: Trapped zero viewer pointer in /vis/viewer/update
804  (bug found by system test of vis-V07-01-02).
805
8062nd Oct 2005  Joseph Perl (vis-V07-01-02)

904
90512th May 2005  John Allison
906- Moved zlib to externals/zlib.
907
9086th May 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-14)
909- OpenGL: fixed bug (views not refreshed - opengl-V07-00-02).
910- Improved ASSCIITree guidance.
911- G4VisExecutive: Replaced printing of available graphics systems.
912  Now corresponds to behaviour of most old examples vis managers.
913- Fixed some pedantic warnings from gcc 4.
914- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: SetCopyNo of replicas and paramaterised
915  volumes (modeling-V07-00-00).

919
92022nd April 2005  John Allison
921- OpenGL: Implemented text for X-Windows viewers (opengl-V07-00-00/1).
922
92310th April 2005  John Allison  (visman-V07-00-00)
924- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: 2nd attempt to fix access to fpVisManager
925  from nested class for SUN.
926
92716th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-13)
928- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: fixed access to fpVisManager from nested class.
929- For gcc 2.95.2: Fixed G4String return for viewer commands.
930- Added constructor and virtual destructor to G4VUserVisAction.
931
93215th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-12)
933- Added return type G4int to G4ViewParameters::SetNoOfSides and
934  G4ModelingParameters::SetNoOfSides.  They return no. of sides, i.e.,
935  sides per circle in polyhedron contruction, that are actually set;
936  there is a lower limit of 12.
937- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: bug fix: no. of rotation steps correctly applied.
938
93910th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-11)
940- Reviewed all vis commands.  Improved guidance, simplified and
941  rationalised the commands.
942
9439th March 2005  John Allison
944- Removed "remove" and "edit" commands.
945- G4VisManager: removed "Delete" methods. (Removing or deleting an
946  existing scene, scene handler or viewer is very messy and not
947  necessary.  When a user creates a new one, he/she may leave the old
948  one around without harm.  It may be left unused or selected again later
949  if the user wants.)
950- Removed automatic parameter candidate specification for commands
951  that take an argument that is a scene, scene handler or viewer
952  name - it is checked in SetNewValue methods.  (The code was just
953  too complicated and, anyway, the result hindered, rather than
954  helped the user, because it restricted the parameter values and
955  mis-typing gave obscure messages.  Now the messages are clearer and,
956  as the guidance points out, the list of possible names can be
957  obtained with a "list" command.)
958- Made "list" commands flag current items.
959- Improved guidance for /vis/scene commands.  Still to do (groan!):
960    /vis/scene/add
961    /vis/sceneHandler
962    /vis/viewer
963
9649th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-10, needs greps-V07-00-01)
965- Refined logo and scale.
966- Improved physical volume clipping.
967- G4VisManager: Added default G4Transform3D::Identity to
968  objectTransformation argument in Draw methods.
969
9704th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-09)
971- Added first implementation of cutaway - a clipping box for physical
972  volume tree:
973    vis/scene/add/volume ! ! ! box km 0 1 0 1 0 1
974  (Does not seem properly to clip volumes wholly inside clipping volume.)
975
9763rd March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-08)
977- Introduced /vis/scene/add/logo.
978- Added Set methods to G4VModel.
979- Added argument to G4CallbackModel::operator()(const G4Transform3D&) so that
980  the model could implement a given transformation.  Provided default for
981  G4VUserVisAction::(const G4Transform3D& = G4Transform3D::Identity).
982- Improved guidance for:
983    compound commands
984    ASCIITree commands
985- Used std::istrstream::istrstream(std::string) throughout.
986
98723rd February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-07)
988- Protected scene handlers for the case of the drawing of solids NOT
989  from a physical volume tree:
990    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
991    G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
992    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
993    G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler.cc
994    G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.cc
995- Fixed a problem with ClearTransientStore.  ClearTransientStore
996  should restrict itself to its job.  In the following files,
997  ClearTransientStore also redraws the view.  In other places, a draw
998  command often follows, so it is not needed here.  In fact it can
999  cause a double recursive descent into DrawView, so the existing code
1000  has been commented out (JA - 23/Jan/05):
1001    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1002    G4HepRepFileSceneHandler.cc
1003    G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc
1004    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
1005    G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1006    G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1007    G4XXXSceneHandler.cc
1008- Removed (commented out) some code that forced extra kernel visits,
1009  purportedly to overcome a problem in OpenGLStored methods.  Let's
1010  fix OpenGL if necessary:
1011    G4VSceneHandler.cc
1012    G4VViewer.cc
1013- Commented out SetView and ClearView in /vis/viewer/refresh:
1014    G4VisCommandsViewer.cc
1015- Changed signature of G4VViewer::SetNeedKernelVisit(G4bool) for compatibility.
1016
101719th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-06 with greps-V07-00-00)
1018- Added G4VUserVisAction and G4CallbackModel.
1019- Implemented /vis/scene/add/userAction.
1020- Fixed bug in /vis/viewer/update (check existence of scene handler and scene).
1021
102215th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-05)
1023- Introduced drawing of readout geometry for logical volumes.
1024- For drawing of logical volumes, introduced boolean flags to control
1025  drawing of:
1026    o boolean components (if any)
1027    o voxels (if any) (note: voxels are not created until start of run)
1028    o readout geometry (if any)
1029- Augmented commands /vis/specify and /vis/scene/add/logicalVolume to use
1030  above flags.
1031- G4ASCIITree: Added printing of names of sensitive detector (if any) and
1032  readout geometry (if any).
1033
103415th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-04)
1035- Updated READMEs for G4VisExecutive.  Removed references to OPACS.
1036
10379th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-03)
1038- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound: fixed previously
1039  missed FukuiRendererSceneHander.
1040
10414th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-02)
1042- Introduced G4VisExecutive.  MyVisManager deprecated.
1043
104427th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-01, needs intercoms-V07-00-00)
1045- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound.
1046- AddSolid: Methods for adding solids to the scene handler.  They
1047  must always be called in the triplet PreAddSolid, AddSolid and
1048  PostAddSolid.  The transformation and visualization attributes
1049  must be set by the call to PreAddSolid.  A possible default
1050  implementation is to request the solid to provide a G4Polyhedron
1051  or similar primitive - see, for example, G4VSceneHandler.
1052- AddCompound: Methods for adding "compound" GEANT4 objects to the scene
1053  handler.  These methods may either (a) invoke "user code" that
1054  uses the "user interface", G4VVisManager (see, for example,
1055  G4VSceneHandler in the Visualization Category, which for
1056  trajectories uses G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory, via
1057  G4TrajectoriesModel in the Modeling Category) or (b) invoke
1058  AddPrimitives below (between calls to Begin/EndPrimitives) or (c)
1059  use graphics-system-specific code or (d) any combination of the
1060  above.
1061
106226th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-00)
1063- G4VisManager:: removed optional argument
1064  const G4Transform3D& objectTransformation = G4Transform3D::Identity
1065  from Draw methods for a hit and trajectory.
1066- Trapped illegal nesting of Begin/EndPrimitives.
1067- Added fpCurrentMaterial to G4VSceneHandler and relevant derived
1068  classes and models for work with G4PhysicalVolumeModel via
1069  EstablishSpecials.  So now, the material is also available (in addition
1070  to current depth, logical and physical volum) during drawing of geometry
1071  items.
1072- Changed ASCIITree to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume and
1073  G4LogicalVolume::GetMass.
1074- Changed G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume.
1075- Improved guidance for /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker.
1076- G4VisCommandsViewerSet: made Up and Viewpoint vectors unit for safety.
1077- Some additions to test area.
1078
107910th December 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-02-09)
1080- Replaced M_PI with CLHEP's pi.
1081
10827th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-08)
1083- Tagged right after migration to cmath
1084- All occurences of include <math.h> have now become include <cmath>.
1085- All math functions are now prefaced with std::
1086
10877th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-07)
1088- Tagged right before migration to cmath
1089
109026th November 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-06)
1091- Tagged for release 7.0.
1092- Made from vis-V06-02-05
1093- plus opengl-V06-02-07 by John Allison
1094- plus vis-HepRep-V06-02-02 by Mark Donszelmann
1095- plus openinventor-V07-00-00 by Guy Barrand
1096
109718th November 2004  John Allison
1098- Included opengl-V06-02-07.
1099
110011th November 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-05)
1101- Made use of smart method GetPolyhedron for solids.  This greatly
1102  speeds 2nd and subsequent drawings when kernel access is required.
1103- Rationalised use of EstablishSpecials: functionality moved to base class.
1104- Removed use of obsolete G4Polymarker::line.
1105
110622nd September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-04)
1107- Moved Doxyfile to management.  doxygen output to tmp area.
1108- modeling-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1109- vistree-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1110- opengl-V06-02-06 - Trap non-regular polyhedra and other small changes.
1111- DAWN-V06-02-00 - Improve diagnostic on trapping non-regular polyhedra.
1112- vistest-V06-02-02: refined rotated tube test.
1113
111413th September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-03)
1115- vistree-V06-02-00: Improved ASCIITree:
1116  verbosity >= 3: prints volume, density of all volumes in hierarchy.
1117  verbosity >= 4: calculates the mass of the complete geometry tree taking
1118    into account daughters up to the depth specified for each physical
1119    volume in the current scene.  Culling is ignored so that all volumes
1120    are processed.  The calculation is quite tricky, since it involves
1121    subtracting the mass of that part of the mother that is occupied by
1122    each daughter and then adding the mass of the daughter, and so on
1123    down the heirarchy.  Uses G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene - see below.
1124  Added option to write to file (/vis/ASCIITree/set/outFile).
1125- modeling-V06-02-00: Added G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene and improvements
1126  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  See modeling/History for more details.
1127- Removed obsolete file: G4VisToOldVisCommands.hh
1128- Corrected mistake in /vis/viewer/set/*Vector commands.
1129- Augmented ParameterisedBox and rotated a tracker tube in test directory.
1130- Brought README.built_in_commands up to date for Geant4 6.2.  Removed all
1131  references to old commands.'
1132
11333rd August 2004  John Allison
1134- Rationalised vis command code (uses G4UIcommand static conversion
1135  functions where possible).
1136- Removed G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle GetDrawingStyle (const
1137  G4Visible&).  Instead, developer has to:
1138    // Get vis attributes - pick up defaults if none.
1139    const G4VisAttributes* pVA =
1140      fpViewer -> GetApplicableVisAttributes (v.GetVisAttributes ());
1141  where v is the visible object (polyline, circle, polyhedron, etc.), and:
1142    // Get view parameters that the user can force through the vis
1143    // attributes, thereby over-riding the current view parameter.
1144    G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle drawing_style = GetDrawingStyle (pVA);
1145    G4bool isAuxEdgeVisible = GetAuxEdgeVisible (pVA);
1146  Most developers do this anyway, so the removed routine was redundant
1147  and resulting code is more efficient and transparent.  To get
1148  colour, the developer can pick up directly from the vis attrributes,
1149  pVA, obtained as above:
1150    const G4Colour& c = pVA -> GetColour ();
1151  or use a slightly less efficient method:
1152    const G4Colour& c = GetColour (v);
1153  where v is the visible object.
1154  Note that for text, the developer must use a different procedure,
1155  since the default text colour is determined by the default text vis
1156  attributes, which may be specified independent of default vis
1157  attributes of other types of visible objects.  A function,
1158  GetTextColour, is provided and the recommended use is:
1159    const G4Colour& c = GetTextColour (text);  // Picks up default if none.
1160- Rationalised use of vis attributes in OpenGL and XXX.
1161
116228th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-02 with greps-V06-02-00)
1163- Implemented force auxiliary edge visible feature of G4VisAttributes.
1164- Included openinventor-V06-02-00 (minor revision - Guy Barrand).
1165
116623rd July 2004  John Allison
1167- Added auxiliary edge visible flag to G4ViewParameters and a new
1168  command, /vis/viewer/set/auxiliaryEdge.  (Auxiliary edges are not
1169  genuine edges of the volume.  They may be in a curved surface made
1170  out of polygons, for example, or in plane surface of complicated
1171  shape that has to be broken down into simpler polygons.
1172  HepPolyhedron breaks all surfaces into triangles or quadrilaterals.
1173  There will be auxiliary edges for any volumes with a curved surface,
1174  such as a tube or a sphere, or a volume resulting from a Boolean
1175  operation.  Normally, they are not shown, but sometimes it is useful
1176  to see them.  In particular, a sphere, because it has no egdes, will
1177  not be seen in wireframe mode in some graphics systems unless this
1178  flag is turned on.)
1179
118016th July 2004  John Allison
1181- Refined forced wireframe algorithm - *always* force wireframe even
1182  if hidden line removal is specified.
1183- opengl-V06-02-04.
1184
118515th July 2004  John Allison
1186- Small improvement to G4XXX (sample graphics system).
1187
118814th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-01)
1189- Removed deprecated commands:
1190    /vis/viewer/show               (use /vis/viewer/update)

1586- Improved verbosity guidance.
1587- Improved /vis/scene/add/scale guidance (needs greps-V03-02-04).
1588- Removed /vis/viewer/refresh from compound commands.
1589- Capitalised 'R' in /vis/viewer/set/autoRefresh.
1590
159129th August 2001  John Allison/Joseph Perl  (vis-V03-02-14)
1592- Needs config-V03-02-06.
1593- First developers release of HepRep graphics driver.
1594
159524th August 2001  Joseph Perl  (vis-V03-02-13-00)
1596- First inclusion of HepRep graphics driver.
1597
159824th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-13)
1599- Fixed bugs in G4VisManager::GeometryHasChanged.
1600- Separated out G4Scene::CalculateExtent.
1601- Improved robustness and timeliness of invocation of some commands.
1602- Improved READMEs.
1603- Reduced warnings from OpenGL - see OpenGL/History.
1604- Cosmetic changes to test.
1605- Added explicit invocation of base class methods to avoid warnings about
1606  hiding of base class methods.
1607
160817th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-12)
1609- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-04.
1610- Added G4VisManager::Draw(const G4Scale&,...  Needs intercoms-V03-02-04.
1611- Added template graphics system XXX.
1612- Improved verbosity guidance.
1613
161414th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-11)
1615- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-03.
1616- Moved default value G4Transform3D::Identity of argument from
1617  G4VSceneHandler::BeginPrimitives to
1618  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginPrimitives.  Needs intercoms-V03-02-03.
1619- Fixed bug in G4VSceneHandler::AddPrimitive(const G4Scale&).  Needs
1620  greps-V03-02-02.
1621- Added sceneHandler.Begin/EndPrimitives messages to models (long
1622  standing bug!).
1623- Removed "dummy" graphics systems in G4VisManager.cc.
1624- Improved robustness of some commands, particularly
1625  /vis/scene/notifyHandlers.
1626- Improved support for multiple viewers (but see OpenGL/History).
1627
162811th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-01)
1629- Implemented /vis/scene/endOfEventAction.
1630
16319th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-00)
1632- Note: non-standard tag to indicate internal use only.
1633- Added /vis/scene/create at start of compound command /vis/open to avoid
1634  warnings.
1635- Removed G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy.  It is no longer used.  The
1636  textual or graphical representation of the geometry hierarchy is now
1637  done in G4xxxTree classes in visua;ization/Tree.
1638- Removed /vis/scene/notifyHandlers from
1639  G4VVisCommandScene::UpdateVisManagerScene - too much updating going on.
1640  It was leading to recursive refreshing/updating.
1641- Implemented auto-refresh at end of event.  (See also OpenGL/History.)
1642  Introduced G4VSceneHandler::Get/SetMarkForClearingTransientStore for
1643  postponed (lazy) clearing of transients (e.g., trajectories) from store
1644  (graphical database) and view.  The mark is set at the end of
1645  G4VisManager::EndOfEvent and the actual clearing is done in:
1646    void G4VisManager::ClearTransientStoreIfMarked(){
1647      // Assumes valid view.
1648      if (fpSceneHandler->GetMarkForClearingTransientStore()) {
1649        fpSceneHandler->SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(false);
1650        fpSceneHandler->ClearTransientStore();
1651      }
1652    }
1653  which is called at the start of each G4VisManager::Draw and the beginning
1654  of G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.  Thus the picture stays from the end of all
1655  drawing for the event until the first drawing of the next event.
1656   
16575th August 2001  John Allison
1658- Small refinements to printing under new verbosity control.
1659
16604th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10)
1661- Re-implemented verbosity control.  Output statements wherever possible
1662  are controlled by the verbosity in a simple graded message scheme:
1663    enum Verbosity {
1664      quiet,         // Nothing is printed.
1665      startup,       // Startup and endup messages are printed...
1666      errors,        // ...and errors...
1667      warnings,      // ...and warnings...
1668      confirmations, // ...and confirming messages...
1669      parameters,    // ...and parameters of scenes and views...
1670      all            // ...and everything available.
1671    };
1672  Note that the G4VisManager member object name and type have changed:
1673    Verbosity             fVerbosity;  // New.
1674    const G4int           fVerbose;
1675    // fVerbose is kept for backwards compatibility for some user
1676    // examples.  (It is used in the derived user vis managers to print
1677    // available graphics systems.)  It is initialised to 1 in the
1678    // constructor and cannot be changed.
1679
16803rd August 2001  John Allison
1681- Added README.quick, a quick installation guide.
1682
168330th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-09)
1684- Eliminated view parameters from G4VisManager.  Now, each view maintains its
1685  own parameters.  Can be copied from one view to another with:
1686    /vis/viewer/set/all <from-viewer-name>
1687    Copies view parameters from from-viewer to current viewer.
1688    Affects current viewer.
1689- Removed redundant methods from G4VisManager, mostly to do with old-style
1690  commands.
1691
169227th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-08)
1693- Needs config-V03-02-01.
1694- Introduced environment variable G4VIS_NONE that, if set, no visualization
1695  drivers are built and no vis libraries are built, not even
1696  libG4vis_management.  (libG4modeling is still built.)  The C-pre-processor
1697  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are *not* set.
1698- Removed the need to specify environment variables for visualization drivers
1699  which do not need external packages or libraries, namely :
1700      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWNFILE_DRIVER
1701      G4VIS_BUILD_RAYTRACER_DRIVER
1702      G4VIS_BUILD_VRMLFILE_DRIVER
1703      G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1704      G4VIS_BUILD_GAGTREE_DRIVER
1705    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1706      G4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE
1707      G4VIS_USE_RAYTRACER
1708      G4VIS_USE_VRMLFILE
1709      G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1710      G4VIS_USE_GAGTREE
1711  For backwards compatibility, unless G4VIS_NONE is set, the corresponding
1712  C-pre-processor variables are automatically set.  Also, the C-pre-processor
1713  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are set.
1714- As before, environment variables for other drivers still need positive
1715  setting of their G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE environment variables.  In this
1716  category are:
1717      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWN_DRIVER
1718      G4VIS_BUILD_OPACS_DRIVER
1719      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLX_DRIVER
1720      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLWIN32_DRIVER
1721      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLXM_DRIVER
1722      G4VIS_BUILD_OIX_DRIVER
1723      G4VIS_BUILD_OIWIN32_DRIVER
1724      G4VIS_BUILD_VRML_DRIVER
1725    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1726      G4VIS_USE_DAWN
1727      G4VIS_USE_OPACS
1728      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLX
1729      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLWIN32
1730      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLXM
1731      G4VIS_USE_OIX
1732      G4VIS_USE_OIWIN32
1733      G4VIS_USE_VRML
1734  In this case G4VIS_NONE must *not* be set.
1735- Fixed unchecked pointer in G4VSceneHandler::ClearStore().
1736
173725th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-07)
1738- Improved access to models (modeling-V03-02-03).
1739- Made G4VSceneHandler::fpModel non-const G4VModel* for convenience.
1740- Improved checks and warning messages in /vis/scene/add/scale.
1741
174224th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-06)
1743- Needs greps-V03-02-01 for small interface change to G4Scale.
1744- Includes modeling-V03-02-02.
1745- Force rebuild of graphics "stores" (graphical databases) and, if
1746  auto-refresh is true, refresh of all views
1747  (/vis/scene/notifyHandlers) after an addition to scene.
1748- Improvements to /vis/scene/add/scale:
1749  o Added colour.
1750  o Assigned a genuine extent.
1751
175223rd July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-05 is non existent - sorry!!!)
1753- Improved /vis/scene/add/scale.
1754- Improved auto-refreshing.
1755
175621st July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-04)
1757- Added /vis/scene/add/scale.  Needs greps-V03-02-00 and intercoms-V03-02-02.
1758
175919th July 2001  Satoshi Tanaka  (vis-V03-02-03)
1760- Modification of G4DAWNFILEViewer.cc
1761- PostScript command "showpage" is always added to g4_XX.eps
1762  so that it is printable. (It can also be inserted into
1763  LaTeX documents.
1764
176518th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-02)
1766- Ensured rotation and translation of replica is restored (modeling-V03-02-00)
1767  (fixes crashes in replica tracking).
1768
176914th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-01)
1770- Included raytracer-V03-02-00 (minor cosmetics).
1771- Minor changes in G4OpenGLXViewer.cc to eliminate pedantic ISO C++ warnings.
1772- Merged vis-V03-02-patch01 (below) to head.
1773- Included new disclaimer.
1774
177514th July 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-02-patch01 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1776- Fixed crash in optimised mode: added Initialise() to viewers so
1777  that windows are opened after viewers are fully constructed.
1778
177910th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-00)
1780- Removed old-style commands.
1781- Removed maintenance of G4VisManager's G4ViewParameters object (this
1782  will be removed soon).
1783- Merged vis-V03-02-patch00 (below) to head.
1784
178510th July  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-patch00 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1786- Corrected mistake which could cause crash if user specified a non-
1787  existent scene handler in /vis/sceneHandler/remove.
1788
178919th June 2001  Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-01-07)
1790-OS dependence is removed from the DAWN-network driver.
1791 * gethostname() removed
1792 * G4SocketConfig.hh and G4SocketMacro.hh are removed.
1793- Now "setenv G4DAWN_HOST_NAME hostname" is mandatory to use
1794  the DAWN-network driver.
1795
179615th June 2001  John Allison
1797- Added GAGTree to G4VisManager.cc, MyVisManager.cc.  Need corresponding
1798  changes in config.
1799
180015th June 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-06)
1801- Added 2nd template argument (less) to sets in G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler and
1802  G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.
1803
180415th June 2001  Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-01-05)
1805- The  first committing of GAGTree driver.
1806- Other files in ./Tree/ are the same as vis-V03-01-04.
1807
18085th June 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-04)
1809- Moved re-useable code from G4ASCIITree to G4VTree.
1810- Made sure all pointers in G4VisManager are initialised on construction.
1811
18124th June 2001  John Allison
1813- G4ASCIITree: Added logical volume name and solid name and type under
1814  verbosity control.
1815- G4ASCIITree: Forced culling off so that all volumes are seen, even if
1816  "invisible".
1817
181829th May 2001  John Allison
1819- Small clean up in test directory.
1820
182125th May 2001  John Allison
1822- Bug fix in G4ASCIITree.cc: initialise fVerbosity(0).
1823
182424th May 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-01-03)
1825- Added missing files G4ASCIITreeMessenger.hh/cc.
1826- Bug fix in G4ASCIITreeMessenger.cc: currentAsDefault = true.
1827- Drivers in alphabetical order in MyVisManager.cc.
1828
182923rd May 2001  John Allison
1830- Eliminated Linux pedantic warnings, except FukuiRenderer, VRML and OPACS.
1831
183222nd May 2001  John Allison
1833- Refined ASCIITree.
1834
183521st May 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-02)
1836- Minor bug corrections (mostly to fix things that used to work with the
1837  old /vis~/ commands but ceased to work with the new /vis/commands:
1838  o If a scene is empty at drawing time, the "world" is added.
1839  o Window size hint now works for OpenGL.
1840- Fixed some minor warnings for strict C++ (size_t, etc.).
1841
184218th May 2001 John Allison
1843- Removed unnecessary virtual inheritance of G4VViewer in G4RayTracerViewer.
1844- Introduced verbosity to ASCIITree.
1845- Proper deletion of directories in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.
1846
184715th May 2001 John Allison
1848- Fixed bug in name of /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane command.
1849
18503rd May 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-01)
1851- Changes for greps-V03-01-01 (elimination of RW).
1852- Improvements in /vis/scene/add/volume.
1853- Added /vis/drawTree.
1854
185510th April 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-00)
1856- Added two new commands:
1857    /vis/scene/add/text
1858    /vis/scene/add/axes
1859- Added first version of ASCIITree to dump geometry hierarchy to
1860  standard output as ASCII stream.
1861  This requires two new environment variables:
1862    G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1863    G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1864  and config-V03-01-00.
1865
18662nd April 2001  John Allison
1867- Tidied OpenGL (opengl-V03-00-01) - see OpenGL/History.
1868
18692nd April 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-09)
1870- Fixed some warnings from DEC cxx.
1871
187215th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-08)
1873- Changed rotation of phi-replicas in G4PhysicalVolumeModel.cc to
1874  ensure correspondence with rule that phi=0 bisects the replica.
1875  WARNING: Prior to this fix the graphics did NOT correspond to the
1876  replica navigation.  If you have been relying on the graphics to
1877  position daughter volumes in a phi-replica, navigation will have
1878  been incorrect, possibly without causing a crash.  The above fix
1879  will change the apparent position as shown by the graphics and you
1880  will have to correct the positioning of daughters.  Make sure the
1881  diaghters are all properly enclosed within the replica.  Graphics
1882  and navigation now correspond,
1883
18847th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-07)
1885- Cosmetic corrections for ISO compliance.
1886
188723rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-06)
1888- Removed all references to RogueWave.
1889
18904th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-05)
1891- Reverted to /vis/viewer commands updating vis manager's view parameters.
1892  Otherwise this can have a big effect on users if old commands are still
1893  being used.  Let's schedule this change for the next version of Geant4.
1894- Added the following new commands:
1895  /vis/enable [true|false]
1896  /vis/disable
1897  /vis/verbose [<verbosity-integer>]
1898  /vis/viewer/set/lineSegmentsPerCircle  [<number-of-sides-per-circle>]
1899  /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane ...
1900  Only /vis/scene/add/text and /vis/scene/add/axes to go!!!
1901
19024th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-04)
1903- /vis/viewer commands no longer update vis manager's view parameters.
1904- Most /vis~/ copmmands give DEPRECATED warning, except:
1905  /vis~/draw/axes
1906  /vis~/draw/text
1907  /vis~/set/section_plane
1908  /vis~/set/sides
1909  /vis~/set/verbose
1910  which have still to be re-implemented.  All /vis~/ commands are still
1911  available through /vis/ for the time being.  (Window size hint no longer
1912   works.)
1913- Added "auto refresh" to view parameters.
1914- Added "default" view parameters to viewers.
1915- Made OpenGL viewers "auto refresh" by default.
1916- Added:
1917  /vis/viewer/set/autoRefresh
1918  /vis/viewer/set/projection
1919- Added compound command:
1920  /vis/drawView [<theta-deg>] [<phi-deg>]
1921                [<pan-right>] [<pan-up>] [<pan-unit>]
1922                [<zoom-factor>]
1923                [<dolly>] [<dolly-unit>]
1924
19254th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-03)
1926- Added several new vis commands:
1927  /vis/viewer/dolly
1928  /vis/viewer/dollyTo
1929  /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi
1930  /vis/viewer/lightsVector
1931  /vis/viewer/pan
1932  /vis/viewer/panTo
1933  /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi
1934  /vis/viewer/viewpointVector
1935  /vis/viewer/zoom
1936  /vis/viewer/zoomTo
1937  /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker
1938  /vis/viewer/set/lightsMove
1939
19403rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-02)
1941- Tidied for CodeWizard.  Small changes to many files in management, modeling
1942  and OpenGL.
1943
19441st February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-01)
1945- Fixed cause of crash when setting viewpoint before creating scene (Bug #157).
1946  Solution: SetView no longer called when view parameters are changed.  In
1947  any case it's called just before drawing, whixh is the right place.
1948- Fixed /vis/set/sides problem (Satoshi Tanaka) (Bug #204).
1949  Solution: Update view's view parameters in /vis/set/sides - had somehow
1950  been overlooked.
1951
195225th January 2001  John Allison
1953- Added protection against empty G4Polyhedron objects.
1954   FukuiRenderer/src/G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1955   OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc
1956   OpenGL/src/G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
1957   OpenInventor/src/G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc
1958   VRML/src/G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1959   VRML/src/G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1960
196125th January 2001  John Allison  (opengl-V03-00-00)
1962- Fixed Bug #120.  Implemented running re-calculation of up-vector in
1963  the case of "object rotation" (lights move with camera) to prevent
1964  "flipping" of view when camera passes through up-vector.  Note that
1965  the default is "camera rotation" (lights do not move with camera,
1966  i.e., remain fixed relative to object) so the default is that this
1967  "flipping" can happen.  To set "object rotation" (lights move with
1968  camera) use /vis/lights/move_with_camera true (soon to be
1969  /vis/viewer/set/lights move-with-camera) or click "Object" radio
1970  button on Rotation Panel in OpenGLXm mode.
1971- Changed some objects to references for efficiency.  E.g.:
1972  const G4Vector3D& vp = pView->fVP.GetViewpointDirection ().unit ();
1973
197418th January 2001  John Allison
1975- Corrected G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  This corrects a bug whereby the
1976  requested drawing of a physical volume and its decendants starting
1977  at a depth greater than 2 was incorrectly positioned on the screen.
1978- /vis/scene/include commands withdrawn - use equivalent commands
1979  /vis/scene/add.
1980- OpenGL: cosmetic and minor performance improvements.
1981
198216th January 2001  John Allison  (vis-03-00-00)
1983- All vis commands "available" in all G4 states.
1984- Other small cosmetic changes to commands.
1985- OpenGL: square and circle markers correctly rendered.
1986  Note: subsequent rotations in stored mode also rotate these markers.
1987- Some small changes to test  - see test/History.
1988
19892nd November 2000  Gunter Folger  (vis-V02-00-02)
1990- Added targets includes and clean_libs to visualization/GNUmakefile.
1991
199218th October 2000  John Allison  (vis-V02-00-01)

2414- Made G4VisManager::GetInstance() private to prevent inadvertent misuse.
2415- Removed #include GNU_GCC - no longer necessary for egcs.
2416- Continued developing the new commands.
2417
2418vis-00-04-04  16th December 1998  John Allison
2419- test/GNUmakefile for Linux-g++
2420- test/test19.cc - removed g4templates.hh
2421- OpenGL - reverted to 100%.
2422
2423vis-00-04-03  9th December 1998  John Allison
2424- Made /vis/ commands from /vis~/.  The idea is to maintain backwards
2425  compatibility while allowing us to "deprecate" the old commands over
2426  a period of time.  Some of these /vis/ commands respond with "superceded",
2427  i.e., superceded by new commands, but still available in /vis~/.
2428- OpenGL viewing volume increased by 20% to prevent corners being clipped.
2429
2430- 08/12/98 : G.Barrand : OpenInventor : due to
2431  huge load problems on various platforms, init only
2432  the HEPVis things that are needed.
2433
2434vis-00-04-02  30th November 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2435- G4VRMLFILE_DEST_DIR for customising out file name - see VRML/History.
2436
243729th November 1998
2438- Added CPPFLAGS += -I....electromagnetic/utils/include to test/GNUmakefile.
2439- Added fName to G4SceneData.
2440
2441vis-00-04-01  25th November 1998  John Allison.
2442- G4Ray/GNUmakefile update for move of files in particles.
2443- Added const G4VisAttributes* fpDefaultVisAttributes and access
2444  functions to G4ModelingParameters.
2445- Reverted to default assignment operator and copy constructor for
2446  G4ModelingParameters and G4ViewParameters.
2447- G4PhysicalVolumeModel can now handle invisible daughters.
2448- More new /vis/ commands - depends on intercoms-00-04-01.
2449- G4VScene passes DefaultVisAttributes* to ModelingParameters.
2450
2451vis-00-03-07  23rd November 1998  John Allison.
2452- modeling/GNUmakefile update for move of files in particles (Hisaya).
2453- Removed semi-colon in G4BoundingSphereScene.cc.
2454
2455vis-00-03-06  9th November 1998  John Allison.
2456- Small change to a message in G4VisManager.
2457- VRML refinement - see VRML/History.
2458- Needs greps-00-03-03.
2459
2460vis-00-03-05b  9th November 1998  John Allison.
2461- Merged 6th November changes with vis-00-03-05a
2462- Bug fix in G4VisManager::IsValidView for batch running.
2463- Needs greps-00-03-03.
2464
2465vis-00-03-05a  9th November 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2466- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is added to
2467  management/include/MyVisManager.cc.
2468
2469vis-00-03-05  9th November 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2470- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is commited:
2471 (1) Generatin of VRML 2.0 format files to describe Geant4 simulation.
2472 (2) Interactive displaying of physiccal-volume names and copy numbers
2473 (3) Interactive displaying of hit positions (displayed strings are
2474     costomizable.
2475 (4) Wireframe drawing style of Geant4 visualization is reflected as
2476     transparency = 0.7.  This value is customizable.
2477     If transparency is 1.0, drawing of detector geometry is skipped,
2478     and hits can be picked easily.
2479
24806th November 1998  John Allison
2481- Implemented basic /vis/viewer commands.
2482- Added `const G4String& name' argument to G4VScene and G4VView constructors.
2483
2484vis-00-03-04  30th October 1998  John Allison
2485- Tagged.
2486
248729th October 1998  Guy Barrand
2488- G4OpenGLXView.hh, G4OpenGLXmView.cc, G4OpenGLXmWindowHandlingCallbacks.cc
2489  in order that things compile and compile without warnings on HP/aCC
2490
249114th October 1998  John Allison
2492- Augmented the new /vis/ commands.  Still not complete but they
2493  co-work with the old commands.
2494- Changed char* fName to G4String fName in G4VScene and G4VView.
2495  Consequent changes in G4OpenGLView.  Also OpenInventor?  Etc.
2496
249711th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2498- added (not a very good) version of hidden lines removal code. This code
2499  suffers from depth buffering artefacts. glPolygonOffset is a feature of
2500  OpenGL version 1.1, and can help overcome depth buffer problems. The code
2501  to utilise glPolygonOffset is committed, but commented out, as it doesn't
2502  seem to work with the version of Mesa available on rsplus currently. My
2503  ideal strategy is to enable depth testing, draw the model as lines, enable
2504  filled polygon offsetting (glPolygonOffset(1.0 /*offset scale factor*/,
2505  2/*offset bias*/); glEnable (GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILLED);) then draw the
2506  model as filled polygons. The offsetting should just add `2' (in window
2507  coordinates, I think) onto the z value of all vertices relating to filled
2508  polygons, thus dismissing the conflict between almost identical z values
2509  for lines and filled polygon edges.
2510
2511vis-00-03-03 9th October 1998  John Allison
2512- G4VisManager inherits G4VStateDependent.  This is used to draw
2513  end-of-event models.
2514
25154th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2516- Added ability for all G4OpenGLX derived graphics systems to produce
2517  vectored PostScript hardcopy. Facility for `automated screen dump'
2518  (i.e. pixmap output) still kept, as some rasterization features
2519  don't make it into the vectored PostScript output (such as haloing
2520  effects). Facility currently available via G4OpenGLXm by clicking
2521  `Miscellany' then `Create .eps file', to get a popup printing
2522  window.
2523
2524vis-00-03-02a  26th September 1998 
2525- DAWNFILE driver is made platform dependent.
2526  (It is now compilable both at both Unix and NT without necessity
2527   of C macros like WIN32.)
2528
2529vis-00-03-02  25th September 1998 
2530- DAWNFILE driver is ported to VC++
2531
2532vis-00-03-01  24th September 1998  John Allison
2533- Eliminated G4VPhysicalVolume* fpWorld data memebr from G4VisManager.
2534
253522th September 1998 Guy Barrand.
2536- Correct modeling, management, G4Ray /GNUmakefile to have
2537  correct digits+hits includes.
2538
253919th September 1998 Guy Barrand.
2540- Due to a correction in globals.h restore correct code
2541  so that OpenInventor files compile correctly on NT.

2552
2553vis-00-02-04  22nd August 1998  John Allison
2554- Many changes in modeling - see modeling/History.
2555- New commands: /vis/scene/create, list, add/volume, add/ghosts.
2556
2557vis-00-02-03a  20th August 1998  John Allison
2558- Restored some code in G4SceneData.cc
2559- Fixed syntax bug in G4PhysicalVolumeSearchScene.hh
2560
2561vis-00-02-03  14th August 1998  John Allison
2562- Added G4VisManager::GeometryHasChanged() - run manager can notify change.
2563- Removed AddRun(Event)DurationModelToCurrentSceneData - no longer used.
2564- Some bug corrections in visualization/OpenGL (Guy Barrand - see
2565  vis blackboard for details).
2566- Some protection added in visualization/OPACS (do.)
2567- Created visualization/test/OPACS (do.)
2568
256912th August 1998  John Allison
2570- More new commands - not fully functional yet.
2571
257211th August 1998  Guy Barrand
2573- G4OpenInventor : remove uneccesary includes.
2574
2575vis-00-02-02b  11th August  Satoshi Tanaka
2576- AddPrimitive() for polymarker are implemented in DAWN and VRML drivers.
2577
2578vis-00-02-02a  9th August  John Allison
2579- Small bug fix in G4VisCommandsScene.cc.
2580
2581vis-00-02-02  9th August  John Allison
2582- Changed '.' to '-' in scene/view names.
2583- Began introduction of new /vis/ commands.
2584- Consequent changes to test - see test/History.
2585
25867th August  Guy Barrand.
2587- OPACS : use G4VView name to build widget names.
2588- OPACS : use new interactor parenting logic.
2589- OpenGL, OpenInventor, G4Ray : clean compilation warnings for OSF1/cxx, HP/aCC.
2590
25917th August  John Allison/Satoshi Tanaka/Guy Barrand.
2592- Added G4<driver>Scene::AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) to keep
2593  compilers happy.
2594
2595vis-00-02-01  6th August  John Allison
2596- Created G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.cc.
2597- Bug fix in G4VisManager: now follows change of world volume after
2598  /vis~/clear/scene.
2599- OpenInventor: Correct some upper -> lower case mess (Guy Barrand)
2600- G4RayView: syntax bug fixes.
2601
26024th August 1998 Andy Walkden
2603I made some changes to OpenGL code...
2604The changes are (i) to tidy up some redundant hidden line
2605removal function calls, (ii) to put some hidden line removal
2606code in G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive(G4Polyhedron) and
2607(iii) to add an option to generate an encapsulated postscript
2608file of the current view in OpenGLXm. There is now a button
2609in the Miscellany pulldown of the main menubar to bring up
2610a shell in which you can specify a filename, colour or black
2611and white and request the creation of a .eps file. The
2612code is to be found in G4OpenGLXView, and so is not bound
2613to the Xm user. Also it needs fixing for some Mesa
2614implementations, and the HP CDE environment manages to stuff
2615things up when rendering to a pixmap (although CDE makes a
2616mess of most other things as well, so this isn't
2617disastrous).
2618
2619
2620vis-00-01-08  21th July 1998  John Allison
2621- Removed automatic refresh from /vis/camera/reset in G4VisCommandsCamera.cc.
2622
2623vis-00-01-07b  21th July 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2624- Revised G4FRSCENE::SendBoundingBox() so that
2625  zooming polycy of  DAWN drivers becomes consistent with
2626  OpenGL drivers
2627
2628vis-00-01-07  20th July 1998  John Allison
2629- Corrected bug in G4VisManager::IsViewValid to trap drawing commands
2630  before geometry is available.
2631
2632vis-00-01-06  19th July 1998  John Allison
2633- Default culling: culling - on, culling of invisible objects - on.
2634- set/drawing_style does *not* change culling flags.
2635- Minor bug fixes.
2636
2637vis-00-01-05  15th July 1998  John Allison

2652
2653vis-00-01-01  4th July 1998  John Allison
2654- Moved G4VIS_BUILD.gmk and G4VIS_USE.gmk to geant4beta/config.

2658- Small changes to test - see test/History.
2659- Tidied.
2660- Removed GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE and make_list.sh.
2661
266230th June 1998 - Paulo & Marc
2663- added the G4FlavoredParallelWorldModel.hh file to
2664  visualization/modeling/include;
2665- added the /vis~/draw/Ghosts [particle name] command
2666  in the G4VisManMessDraw.cc file;
2667- added
2668  CPPFLAGS += -I$(G4BASE)/geometry/magneticfield/include and
2669  CPPFLAGS += -I$(G4BASE)/processes/parameterisation/include
2670  lines to GNUmakefile to compile G4VisManMessDraw.cc.

2675
2676vis-00-06-09  26th June 1998  John Allison
2677- OPACS and Open Inventor - something about widget parents (GB)
2678- Removed /new_vis/ commands.
2679
2680vis-00-06-08a  26th June 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2681- Updated G4VIS_USE.gmk
2682- (1) Macro -DG4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE is made properly set
2683- (2) G4VIS_USE_DAWN_ is renamed to G4VIS_USE_DAWN_OR_DAWNFILE
2684- (3) G4VIS_USE_VRML_ is renamed to G4VIS_USE_VRML_OR_VRMLFILE
2685
2686vis-00-06-08  22nd June 1998  John Allison
2687- Changed G4BASE = ../.. to G4BASE = $(shell (cd ../..; pwd))
2688- Changed GNUmakefile.G4VIS_BUILD to G4VIS_BUILD.gmk
2689
2690vis-00-06-07  19th June 1998  John Allison
2691- Defined G4_SOLVE_VIS_TEMPLATES in G4VIS_USE.gmk.  Needs
2692  the head version of GNUmakefile.architecture.
2693- Consequential changes (improvements) to template handling in test19.cc
2694- Some minor improvements in modeling.
2695
2696vis-00-06-06  11th June 1998  John Allison
2697- Fixes to test_utils - see test/History.
2698- Improvements in modeling - see modeling/History.
2699
2700vis-00-06-05  11th June 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2701- In G4VisManMessDraw.cc and G4VisManMessSet.cc , ...
2702  //    G4double unit = G4UIcommand::valueOf (unitString);
2703        G4double unit = G4UnitDefinition::GetValueOf (unitString);
2704
2705vis-00-06-04  10th June 1998  John Allison
2706- Created G4VIS_USE.gmk to replace GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE.
2707- Changed test/GNUmakefile to use G4VIS_USE.gmk.
2708- Separate libraries are now default in GNUmakefile.
2709- Committed an interim version of README.
2710- Moved G4BoundingSphereScene from management to modeling.
2711- First attempt at defining the "scene" as lists of models.
2712- Removed some unnecessary checks in G4VisManMess*.
2713
2714vis-00-06-03  27th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2715- DAWNFILE driver is added. It is to generate g4.prim file
2716  under the current directory.  And make DAWN or DAVID invoke
2717  using the g4.prim file as an input. For details, see the blackboard
2718  document.
2719
272021st May 1998 Andy Walkden
2721- Added hidden line removal code to G4OpenGLView. HLR utilises OpenGL's
2722  stencil buffer, but still the drawn lines are a little fragmented
2723  (an effect seen often when depth buffering is used to resolve pixel
2724  rendering disputes).
2725- HLR requires wireframe rendering, filled polygon rendering and then wireframe
2726  rendering again. Hence, three visits to the kernel help to slow HLR
2727  rendering right down.
2728
2729vis-00-06-02  20th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2730- Added G4VisFeaturesOfDAWNFILE.hh, cc
2731- Revised visualization/GNUmakefile, GNUmakefile.G4VIS_BUILD,
2732  GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE
2733- These are for DAWNFILE driver in preparation, which enables to
2734  invoke DAVID directly from Geant4.
2735
2736vis-00-06-01a 20th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2737- code refinement of FukuiRenderer driver
2738
2739vis-00-06-01  29th April 1998  John Allison
2740- Introduced non-pure virtual functions
2741  Establish/DecommissionSpecials (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2742  G4VGraphicsScene with implementation of the former in G4VScene.
2743  Modified G4PhysicalVolumeModel to use it; also protected
2744  G4PhysicalVolumeModel against non-implementation of
2745  Establish/DecommissionSpecials.
2746- Template instantiations in G4RayView made exclusive to GNU_GCC
2747- Some minor changes under test - see test/History.
2748
274927th April 1998 Andy Walkden
2750- altered OpenGLView's structure a little. Now, G4OpenGLXmView is a
2751  type of (inherits from) G4OpenGLXView.
2752- made code for haloing effects common to all OpenGL views.
2753- changed XUnmapWindow in G4OpenGLXView::~G4OpenGLXView to XDestroyWindow
2754  (idea of Guy's)
2755
275627th April 1998 Guy Barrand
2757- vis/OPACS : remove Begin/EndModeling in G4GoScene.
2758
2759vis-00-05-06  23rd April 1998  John Allison
2760- Changed test19.mac to test19.g4m and consequent change in test19.cc.
2761- Fixed order of linking vis-a-vis -lG4track and -lG4tracking (GB).
2762- Fixed inadvertent bug in test_utils/src/MyPhysicsList.cc.
2763- Bug fix in G4OpenGLXmConvenienceRoutines.cc (GB).
2764
2765vis-00-05-05  21st April 1998  John Allison
2766- Added run-time command line argument: test19 [<session-type>] [<verbosity>]
2767- Removed #if GNU_GCC from template instantiation requests in test19.cc.
2768- Added fDefaultTextVisAttributes to G4ViewParameters.
2769- Added G4VScene::GetTextColour (changed G4FukuiRendererScene, G4GoScene and
2770  G4OpenInventorScene.
2771- Changed default view parameters: culling on and invisible object culling on.
2772- Tidied CreateScene/View.
2773- Continued BaBar development.
2774
277515th April 1998  John Allison
2776- Added test/EucIntfce/, test/Bogus/ and test/babar_utils/ for BaBar test code.
2777  Also a new main() in BaBarCallListTest.cc.  Also a data file call_list.dat.
2778  See babar_utils/README.
2779- Camera commands, except spin and orbit, no longer initiate draw.
2780- Text is blue for time being (visible on black or white background.)
2781
278215th April 1998 : Guy Barrand
2783- From discussion with John and Simone G4VToolkit
2784  has been renamed to G4VInteractorManager.
2785
2786vis-00-05-04a  11th April 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2787- Code improvements in DAWN driver
2788- (1) View parameters are sent to DAWN only at drawing times.
2789- (2) Way of getting marker size are made simpler by using
2790-     G4VScene::GetMarkerRadius ()  etc.
2791
2792vis-00-05-04  8th April 1998  John Allison
2793- Small bug fix - then tag for Easter.
2794
2795HEAD  6th April 1998  John Allison
2796- Added error printing to G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text).
2797- Added /vis~/draw/text.
2798- Added units to /vis~/draw/axes.
2799- Began the job of restructuring vis commands; so there is a new class
2800  G4VisCommandsCameraMessengers for starters!
2801
2802HEAD  4th April 1998  John Allison
2803- Removed automatic drawing after /vis~/set commands.  Now an explicit
2804  redraw is necessary, but it allows you to change parameters during
2805  building a view.  For example to superimpose projected hits on a
2806  section:
2807    /vis~/clear/view
2808    /vis~/set/section_plane on 0 0 20 cm 0 0 1
2809    /vis~/draw/current
2810    /vis~/set/section_plane off
2811    /run/beamOn
2812- Fixed small bug in OpenGL for section drawing.
2813- Made some small improvements in G4ViewParameters.
2814
2815vis-00-05-03  4th April 1998  John Allison
2816- Re-engineered maintenance of current depth, etc.  Needed new method
2817  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginModeling (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2818  graphics_reps.  The result is much cleaner model and modeling
2819  parameters classes.  Also, the current depth, physical volume and
2820  logical volume are immediately available as protected pointers in
2821  G4VScene.
2822- Required G4VScene::Begin/EndModeling to be invoked from subclass.
2823- Introduced G4NullModel to hold modeling parameters.  This avoids
2824  having to create a G4VModel for each graphics primitive.
2825
2826HEAD  3rd April 1998  John Allison
2827- Added GetMarkerDiameter/Radius to G4VScene.
2828- Bug fix in G4VScene::GetMarkerSize.
2829- Removed GetCurrentPhysicalVolume from G4PhysicalVolumeModel - now in
2830  G4ModelingParameters (but might move again soon!).
2831- test/GNUmakefile now uses "$(MAKE) separate" for vis libraries.
2832- test19 recognises argument "1" as a verbose flag value.

2963  this since I have a few changes for other categories in
2964  the pipeline - see previous email) with:

2980  to-be-adopted G4VIS_... variables - see visualization/test/README.
2981- Consequent changes to other visualization GNUmakefiles.
2982- New way of instantiating graphics systems:
2983  Set the appropriate environment variables and include and
2984  compile G4VisRegisterGraphicsSystems.icc in your main():
2985    ...
2986    #include G4VisRegisterGraphicsSystems.icc
2987    ...
2988    main() {
2989      ...
