588 processed again with the original random number seed so that
589 transients (trajectories, hits, user drawing, etc.) are
590 reconstructed. Thus, transients are "remembered" and may be
591 copied between graphics systems. Turn off with
592 "/vis/scene/transientsAction none".
593 o Introduced /vis/geometry/... for editing vis attributes of
594 geometry volumes.
595 o For developers:
596 * Migration from use of Establish/DecommisionSpecials.

815
81620th July 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-01-00)
817- opengl-V07-01-00: Introduced smooth shading. Also window size hints for Xm.
818- openinventor-V07-01-00: Changed Geant4_SoPolyhedron to construct
819 from G4Polyhedron. Functionality unchanged.
820- visman-V07-01-00: Protected new viewer pointer.
821- vistest-V07-01-00
822- Removed top level README files. (All wisdom now transferred
823 properly to User Guides.)
824
82517th July 2005 John Allison
826- raytracer-V07-01-00: Introduced RayTracerX.
827

834
8352nd June 2005 Joseph Perl (vis-V07-00-18)
836- Candidate tag for release.
837- Includes Mark's additional changes for HepRep2.
838- Includes Mark's fix for gcc-4.0 compilation.
839
8402nd June 2005 Joseph Perl (vis-V07-00-17)
841- Candidate tag for release. May or may not be final.
842- Undid Gabriele's fix to G4HepRepFileSceneHandler.cc.
843
8442nd June 2005 John Allison
845- Removed scene handler count and made small cosmetic improvements.
846
8472nd June 2005 Joseph Perl (vis-V07-00-16)
848- Incorporate improvements to HepRepFile and HepRepXML
849

863 o Fixed default values in /vis/scene/add/text.
864
86512th May 2005 John Allison
866- Moved zlib to externals/zlib.
867
8686th May 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-14)
869- OpenGL: fixed bug (views not refreshed - opengl-V07-00-02).
870- Improved ASSCIITree guidance.
871- G4VisExecutive: Replaced printing of available graphics systems.
872 Now corresponds to behaviour of most old examples vis managers.
873- Fixed some pedantic warnings from gcc 4.
874- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: SetCopyNo of replicas and paramaterised
875 volumes (modeling-V07-00-00).
876
8775th May 2005 John Allison
878- Introduced zlib directory.
879
88022nd April 2005 John Allison
881- OpenGL: Implemented text for X-Windows viewers (opengl-V07-00-00/1).
882
88310th April 2005 John Allison (visman-V07-00-00)
884- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: 2nd attempt to fix access to fpVisManager
885 from nested class for SUN.
886
88716th March 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-13)
888- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: fixed access to fpVisManager from nested class.
889- For gcc 2.95.2: Fixed G4String return for viewer commands.
890- Added constructor and virtual destructor to G4VUserVisAction.
891
89215th March 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-12)
893- Added return type G4int to G4ViewParameters::SetNoOfSides and
894 G4ModelingParameters::SetNoOfSides. They return no. of sides, i.e.,
895 sides per circle in polyhedron contruction, that are actually set;
896 there is a lower limit of 12.
897- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: bug fix: no. of rotation steps correctly applied.
898
89910th March 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-11)
900- Reviewed all vis commands. Improved guidance, simplified and
901 rationalised the commands.
902
9039th March 2005 John Allison
904- Removed "remove" and "edit" commands.
905- G4VisManager: removed "Delete" methods. (Removing or deleting an
906 existing scene, scene handler or viewer is very messy and not
907 necessary. When a user creates a new one, he/she may leave the old
908 one around without harm. It may be left unused or selected again later
909 if the user wants.)
910- Removed automatic parameter candidate specification for commands
911 that take an argument that is a scene, scene handler or viewer
912 name - it is checked in SetNewValue methods. (The code was just
913 too complicated and, anyway, the result hindered, rather than
914 helped the user, because it restricted the parameter values and
915 mis-typing gave obscure messages. Now the messages are clearer and,
916 as the guidance points out, the list of possible names can be
917 obtained with a "list" command.)
918- Made "list" commands flag current items.
919- Improved guidance for /vis/scene commands. Still to do (groan!):
920 /vis/scene/add
921 /vis/sceneHandler
922 /vis/viewer
923
9249th March 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-10, needs greps-V07-00-01)
925- Refined logo and scale.
926- Improved physical volume clipping.
927- G4VisManager: Added default G4Transform3D::Identity to
928 objectTransformation argument in Draw methods.
929
9304th March 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-09)
931- Added first implementation of cutaway - a clipping box for physical
932 volume tree:
933 vis/scene/add/volume ! ! ! box km 0 1 0 1 0 1
934 (Does not seem properly to clip volumes wholly inside clipping volume.)
935
9363rd March 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-08)
937- Introduced /vis/scene/add/logo.
938- Added Set methods to G4VModel.
939- Added argument to G4CallbackModel::operator()(const G4Transform3D&) so that
940 the model could implement a given transformation. Provided default for
941 G4VUserVisAction::(const G4Transform3D& = G4Transform3D::Identity).
942- Improved guidance for:
943 compound commands
944 ASCIITree commands
945- Used std::istrstream::istrstream(std::string) throughout.
946
94723rd February 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-07)
948- Protected scene handlers for the case of the drawing of solids NOT
949 from a physical volume tree:
950 G4FRSceneFunc.icc
951 G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
952 G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
953 G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler.cc
954 G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.cc
955- Fixed a problem with ClearTransientStore. ClearTransientStore
956 should restrict itself to its job. In the following files,
957 ClearTransientStore also redraws the view. In other places, a draw
958 command often follows, so it is not needed here. In fact it can
959 cause a double recursive descent into DrawView, so the existing code
960 has been commented out (JA - 23/Jan/05):
961 G4FRSceneFunc.icc
962 G4HepRepFileSceneHandler.cc
963 G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc
964 G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
965 G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
966 G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
967 G4XXXSceneHandler.cc
968- Removed (commented out) some code that forced extra kernel visits,
969 purportedly to overcome a problem in OpenGLStored methods. Let's
970 fix OpenGL if necessary:
971 G4VSceneHandler.cc
972 G4VViewer.cc
973- Commented out SetView and ClearView in /vis/viewer/refresh:
974 G4VisCommandsViewer.cc
975- Changed signature of G4VViewer::SetNeedKernelVisit(G4bool) for compatibility.
976
97719th February 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-06 with greps-V07-00-00)
978- Added G4VUserVisAction and G4CallbackModel.
979- Implemented /vis/scene/add/userAction.
980- Fixed bug in /vis/viewer/update (check existence of scene handler and scene).
981
98215th February 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-05)
983- Introduced drawing of readout geometry for logical volumes.
984- For drawing of logical volumes, introduced boolean flags to control
985 drawing of:
986 o boolean components (if any)
987 o voxels (if any) (note: voxels are not created until start of run)
988 o readout geometry (if any)
989- Augmented commands /vis/specify and /vis/scene/add/logicalVolume to use
990 above flags.
991- G4ASCIITree: Added printing of names of sensitive detector (if any) and
992 readout geometry (if any).
993
99415th February 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-04)
995- Updated READMEs for G4VisExecutive. Removed references to OPACS.
996
9979th February 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-03)
998- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound: fixed previously
999 missed FukuiRendererSceneHander.
1000
10014th February 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-02)
1002- Introduced G4VisExecutive. MyVisManager deprecated.
1003
100427th January 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-01, needs intercoms-V07-00-00)
1005- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound.
1006- AddSolid: Methods for adding solids to the scene handler. They
1007 must always be called in the triplet PreAddSolid, AddSolid and
1008 PostAddSolid. The transformation and visualization attributes
1009 must be set by the call to PreAddSolid. A possible default
1010 implementation is to request the solid to provide a G4Polyhedron
1011 or similar primitive - see, for example, G4VSceneHandler.
1012- AddCompound: Methods for adding "compound" GEANT4 objects to the scene
1013 handler. These methods may either (a) invoke "user code" that
1014 uses the "user interface", G4VVisManager (see, for example,
1015 G4VSceneHandler in the Visualization Category, which for
1016 trajectories uses G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory, via
1017 G4TrajectoriesModel in the Modeling Category) or (b) invoke
1018 AddPrimitives below (between calls to Begin/EndPrimitives) or (c)
1019 use graphics-system-specific code or (d) any combination of the
1020 above.
1021
102226th January 2005 John Allison (vis-V07-00-00)
1023- G4VisManager:: removed optional argument
1024 const G4Transform3D& objectTransformation = G4Transform3D::Identity
1025 from Draw methods for a hit and trajectory.
1026- Trapped illegal nesting of Begin/EndPrimitives.
1027- Added fpCurrentMaterial to G4VSceneHandler and relevant derived
1028 classes and models for work with G4PhysicalVolumeModel via
1029 EstablishSpecials. So now, the material is also available (in addition
1030 to current depth, logical and physical volum) during drawing of geometry
1031 items.
1032- Changed ASCIITree to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume and
1033 G4LogicalVolume::GetMass.
1034- Changed G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume.
1035- Improved guidance for /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker.
1036- G4VisCommandsViewerSet: made Up and Viewpoint vectors unit for safety.
1037- Some additions to test area.
1038
103910th December 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-02-09)
1040- Replaced M_PI with CLHEP's pi.
1041
10427th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-08)
1043- Tagged right after migration to cmath
1044- All occurences of include <math.h> have now become include <cmath>.
1045- All math functions are now prefaced with std::
1046
10477th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-07)
1048- Tagged right before migration to cmath
1049
105026th November 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-06)
1051- Tagged for release 7.0.
1052- Made from vis-V06-02-05
1053- plus opengl-V06-02-07 by John Allison
1054- plus vis-HepRep-V06-02-02 by Mark Donszelmann
1055- plus openinventor-V07-00-00 by Guy Barrand
1056
105718th November 2004 John Allison
1058- Included opengl-V06-02-07.
1059
106011th November 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-02-05)
1061- Made use of smart method GetPolyhedron for solids. This greatly
1062 speeds 2nd and subsequent drawings when kernel access is required.
1063- Rationalised use of EstablishSpecials: functionality moved to base class.
1064- Removed use of obsolete G4Polymarker::line.
1065
106622nd September 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-02-04)
1067- Moved Doxyfile to management. doxygen output to tmp area.
1068- modeling-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1069- vistree-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1070- opengl-V06-02-06 - Trap non-regular polyhedra and other small changes.
1071- DAWN-V06-02-00 - Improve diagnostic on trapping non-regular polyhedra.
1072- vistest-V06-02-02: refined rotated tube test.
1073
107413th September 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-02-03)
1075- vistree-V06-02-00: Improved ASCIITree:
1076 verbosity >= 3: prints volume, density of all volumes in hierarchy.
1077 verbosity >= 4: calculates the mass of the complete geometry tree taking
1078 into account daughters up to the depth specified for each physical
1079 volume in the current scene. Culling is ignored so that all volumes
1080 are processed. The calculation is quite tricky, since it involves
1081 subtracting the mass of that part of the mother that is occupied by
1082 each daughter and then adding the mass of the daughter, and so on
1083 down the heirarchy. Uses G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene - see below.
1084 Added option to write to file (/vis/ASCIITree/set/outFile).
1085- modeling-V06-02-00: Added G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene and improvements
1086 to G4PhysicalVolumeModel. See modeling/History for more details.
1087- Removed obsolete file: G4VisToOldVisCommands.hh
1088- Corrected mistake in /vis/viewer/set/*Vector commands.
1089- Augmented ParameterisedBox and rotated a tracker tube in test directory.
1090- Brought README.built_in_commands up to date for Geant4 6.2. Removed all
1091 references to old commands.'
1092
10933rd August 2004 John Allison
1094- Rationalised vis command code (uses G4UIcommand static conversion
1095 functions where possible).
1096- Removed G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle GetDrawingStyle (const
1097 G4Visible&). Instead, developer has to:
1098 // Get vis attributes - pick up defaults if none.
1099 const G4VisAttributes* pVA =
1100 fpViewer -> GetApplicableVisAttributes (v.GetVisAttributes ());
1101 where v is the visible object (polyline, circle, polyhedron, etc.), and:
1102 // Get view parameters that the user can force through the vis
1103 // attributes, thereby over-riding the current view parameter.
1104 G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle drawing_style = GetDrawingStyle (pVA);
1105 G4bool isAuxEdgeVisible = GetAuxEdgeVisible (pVA);
1106 Most developers do this anyway, so the removed routine was redundant
1107 and resulting code is more efficient and transparent. To get
1108 colour, the developer can pick up directly from the vis attrributes,
1109 pVA, obtained as above:
1110 const G4Colour& c = pVA -> GetColour ();
1111 or use a slightly less efficient method:
1112 const G4Colour& c = GetColour (v);
1113 where v is the visible object.
1114 Note that for text, the developer must use a different procedure,
1115 since the default text colour is determined by the default text vis
1116 attributes, which may be specified independent of default vis
1117 attributes of other types of visible objects. A function,
1118 GetTextColour, is provided and the recommended use is:
1119 const G4Colour& c = GetTextColour (text); // Picks up default if none.
1120- Rationalised use of vis attributes in OpenGL and XXX.
1121
112228th July 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-02-02 with greps-V06-02-00)
1123- Implemented force auxiliary edge visible feature of G4VisAttributes.
1124- Included openinventor-V06-02-00 (minor revision - Guy Barrand).
1125
112623rd July 2004 John Allison
1127- Added auxiliary edge visible flag to G4ViewParameters and a new
1128 command, /vis/viewer/set/auxiliaryEdge. (Auxiliary edges are not
1129 genuine edges of the volume. They may be in a curved surface made
1130 out of polygons, for example, or in plane surface of complicated
1131 shape that has to be broken down into simpler polygons.
1132 HepPolyhedron breaks all surfaces into triangles or quadrilaterals.
1133 There will be auxiliary edges for any volumes with a curved surface,
1134 such as a tube or a sphere, or a volume resulting from a Boolean
1135 operation. Normally, they are not shown, but sometimes it is useful
1136 to see them. In particular, a sphere, because it has no egdes, will
1137 not be seen in wireframe mode in some graphics systems unless this
1138 flag is turned on.)
1139
114016th July 2004 John Allison
1141- Refined forced wireframe algorithm - *always* force wireframe even
1142 if hidden line removal is specified.
1143- opengl-V06-02-04.
1144
114515th July 2004 John Allison
1146- Small improvement to G4XXX (sample graphics system).
1147
114814th July 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-02-01)
1149- Removed deprecated commands:
1150 /vis/viewer/show (use /vis/viewer/update)
1151 /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsThetaPhi)
1152 /vis/viewer/lightsVector (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsVector)
1153 /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointThetaPhi)
1154 /vis/viewer/viewpointVector (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointVector)
1155 (See geant4/source/visualization/README.built_in_commands for list
1156 of current commands.)
1157- Tidied guidance for /vis/viewer/set.
1158- Included opengl-V06-02-03 (cosmetic).
1159
116014th July 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-02-00)
1161- opengl-V06-02-02 and vistest-V06-02-01:
1162 Hidden line *and/or* hidden surface removal now work for OGL*X and OGL*Xm.
1163
11641st July 2004 John Allison
1165- Correction to guidance of /vis/viewer/set/hiddenEdge.
1166- Small improvement to README of /vis/scene/add/axes.
1167- vistest-V06-02-00.
1168- opengl-V06-02-00.
1169- visman-V06-02-00: Fix for porting on gcc-3.4.0: made ProcessView()
1170 public, since used as private friend (Gabriele Cosmo).
1171
11729th June 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-01-03)
1173- Adopt G4DLLIMPORT/G4DLLEXPORT technique to handle extern simbols for
1174 allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1175- Minor correction in modeling/GNUmakefile for GLOBLIBS definition.
1176- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02b".
1177
11787th June 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-01-02)
1179- Includes "vis-HepRep-V06-01-04".
1180- Export extern symbols for allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1181 Modified files: G4RayTrajectory.hh, G4RayTrajectoryPoint.hh.
1182- GNUmakefiles: added definition of GLOBLIBS for DLLs support on Windows.
1183- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02a".
1184
11859th April 2004 John Allison (vis-V06-01-01 + interfaces-V06-01-00)
1186- Tagged OpenGL as below. Joint with interfaces-V06-01-00.
1187
11887th April 2004 Guy Barrand
1189- visualization/OpenGL/* : use the G4OpenGL.hh file.
1190- Added : visualization/OpenGL/include/G4OpenGL.hh to encapsulate
1191 the include of gl/gl.h and gl/glu.h that may be platform dependant.
1192 It permits to rm some #ifdef WIN32 spread in the code. It opens also
1193 the way to the usage of the Apple OpenGL on a Mac.
1194
119514 March 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-00-01)
1196- HepRepFile handle duplicate ShowView.
1197- HepRepFile improve layering and hierarchy for hits.
1198
119917th February 2004 John Allison (opengl-V06-00-00)
1200- Fixed bug #581: wrong order of statements in
1201 G4OpenGLXViewer::~G4OpenGLXViewer (see bug report).
1202
12031st December 2003 John Allison
1204- Added checks and minor improvment of behaviour at end of event and run:
1205 o G4VisManager::EndOfRun: added check on MarkForClearingTransientStore.
1206 o G4VisCommandsScene.cc: For "/vis/scene/endOf[Event|Run]Action refresh",
1207 SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(true).
1208
120927th November 2003 John Allison (vis-V05-02-06)
1210- Added /vis/scene/endOfRunAction.
1211- Includes vis-HepRep-V05-02-08.
1212- G4VisManager: Removed PrintAllGraphicsSystems and
1213 PrintInstalledGraphicsSystems. They are difficult to maintain and
1214 are anyway not used. (There remains PrintAvailableGraphicsSystems,
1215 which is much used, and iterates over instantiated graphics systems
1216 and needs no maintenance.)
1217
121820th November 2003 John Allison (vis-V05-02-05)
1219- Re-submitted. Includes vis-HepRep-05-02-07: fixes compiler issues and
1220 other minor fixes.
1221
122214th November 2003 John Allison (vis-V05-02-04)
1223- Includes vis-HepRep-05-02-03: new HepRep XML driver for HepRep Version 2.
1224- Bug fix in G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.
1225
122612th November 2003 John Allison
1227- Bug in /vis/scene/add/volume: requestedDepthOfDescent now correctly
1228 propagated to "world" volume.
1229- modeling-V05-02-02: G4PhysicalVolumeModel: CalculateExtent always
1230 searches complete hierarchy.

1538- Added BeginOfRun, BeginOfEvent and EndOfRun to G4VisManager, invoked via
1539 G4VisStateDependent.

1567
156817th August 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-12)
1569- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-04.
1570- Added G4VisManager::Draw(const G4Scale&,... Needs intercoms-V03-02-04.
1571- Added template graphics system XXX.
1572- Improved verbosity guidance.
1573
157414th August 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-11)
1575- Coworks with greps-V03-02-02 and intercoms-V03-02-03.
1576- Moved default value G4Transform3D::Identity of argument from
1577 G4VSceneHandler::BeginPrimitives to
1578 G4VGraphicsScene::BeginPrimitives. Needs intercoms-V03-02-03.
1579- Fixed bug in G4VSceneHandler::AddPrimitive(const G4Scale&). Needs
1580 greps-V03-02-02.
1581- Added sceneHandler.Begin/EndPrimitives messages to models (long
1582 standing bug!).
1583- Removed "dummy" graphics systems in G4VisManager.cc.
1584- Improved robustness of some commands, particularly
1585 /vis/scene/notifyHandlers.
1586- Improved support for multiple viewers (but see OpenGL/History).
1587
158811th August 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-10-01)
1589- Implemented /vis/scene/endOfEventAction.
1590
15919th August 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-10-00)
1592- Note: non-standard tag to indicate internal use only.
1593- Added /vis/scene/create at start of compound command /vis/open to avoid
1594 warnings.
1595- Removed G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy. It is no longer used. The
1596 textual or graphical representation of the geometry hierarchy is now
1597 done in G4xxxTree classes in visua;ization/Tree.
1598- Removed /vis/scene/notifyHandlers from
1599 G4VVisCommandScene::UpdateVisManagerScene - too much updating going on.
1600 It was leading to recursive refreshing/updating.
1601- Implemented auto-refresh at end of event. (See also OpenGL/History.)
1602 Introduced G4VSceneHandler::Get/SetMarkForClearingTransientStore for
1603 postponed (lazy) clearing of transients (e.g., trajectories) from store
1604 (graphical database) and view. The mark is set at the end of
1605 G4VisManager::EndOfEvent and the actual clearing is done in:
1606 void G4VisManager::ClearTransientStoreIfMarked(){
1607 // Assumes valid view.
1608 if (fpSceneHandler->GetMarkForClearingTransientStore()) {
1609 fpSceneHandler->SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(false);
1610 fpSceneHandler->ClearTransientStore();
1611 }
1612 }
1613 which is called at the start of each G4VisManager::Draw and the beginning
1614 of G4VisManager::EndOfEvent. Thus the picture stays from the end of all
1615 drawing for the event until the first drawing of the next event.
1616
16175th August 2001 John Allison
1618- Small refinements to printing under new verbosity control.
1619
16204th August 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-10)
1621- Re-implemented verbosity control. Output statements wherever possible
1622 are controlled by the verbosity in a simple graded message scheme:
1623 enum Verbosity {
1624 quiet, // Nothing is printed.
1625 startup, // Startup and endup messages are printed...
1626 errors, // ...and errors...
1627 warnings, // ...and warnings...
1628 confirmations, // ...and confirming messages...
1629 parameters, // ...and parameters of scenes and views...
1630 all // ...and everything available.
1631 };
1632 Note that the G4VisManager member object name and type have changed:
1633 Verbosity fVerbosity; // New.
1634 const G4int fVerbose;
1635 // fVerbose is kept for backwards compatibility for some user
1636 // examples. (It is used in the derived user vis managers to print
1637 // available graphics systems.) It is initialised to 1 in the
1638 // constructor and cannot be changed.
1639
16403rd August 2001 John Allison
1641- Added README.quick, a quick installation guide.
1642
164330th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-09)
1644- Eliminated view parameters from G4VisManager. Now, each view maintains its
1645 own parameters. Can be copied from one view to another with:
1646 /vis/viewer/set/all <from-viewer-name>
1647 Copies view parameters from from-viewer to current viewer.
1648 Affects current viewer.
1649- Removed redundant methods from G4VisManager, mostly to do with old-style
1650 commands.
1651
165227th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-08)
1653- Needs config-V03-02-01.
1654- Introduced environment variable G4VIS_NONE that, if set, no visualization
1655 drivers are built and no vis libraries are built, not even
1656 libG4vis_management. (libG4modeling is still built.) The C-pre-processor
1657 variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are *not* set.
1658- Removed the need to specify environment variables for visualization drivers
1659 which do not need external packages or libraries, namely :
1660 G4VIS_BUILD_DAWNFILE_DRIVER
1661 G4VIS_BUILD_RAYTRACER_DRIVER
1662 G4VIS_BUILD_VRMLFILE_DRIVER
1663 G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1664 G4VIS_BUILD_GAGTREE_DRIVER
1665 with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1666 G4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE
1667 G4VIS_USE_RAYTRACER
1668 G4VIS_USE_VRMLFILE
1669 G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1670 G4VIS_USE_GAGTREE
1671 For backwards compatibility, unless G4VIS_NONE is set, the corresponding
1672 C-pre-processor variables are automatically set. Also, the C-pre-processor
1673 variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are set.
1674- As before, environment variables for other drivers still need positive
1675 setting of their G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE environment variables. In this
1676 category are:
1677 G4VIS_BUILD_DAWN_DRIVER
1678 G4VIS_BUILD_OPACS_DRIVER
1679 G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLX_DRIVER
1680 G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLWIN32_DRIVER
1681 G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLXM_DRIVER
1682 G4VIS_BUILD_OIX_DRIVER
1683 G4VIS_BUILD_OIWIN32_DRIVER
1684 G4VIS_BUILD_VRML_DRIVER
1685 with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1686 G4VIS_USE_DAWN
1687 G4VIS_USE_OPACS
1688 G4VIS_USE_OPENGLX
1689 G4VIS_USE_OPENGLWIN32
1690 G4VIS_USE_OPENGLXM
1691 G4VIS_USE_OIX
1692 G4VIS_USE_OIWIN32
1693 G4VIS_USE_VRML
1694 In this case G4VIS_NONE must *not* be set.
1695- Fixed unchecked pointer in G4VSceneHandler::ClearStore().
1696
169725th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-07)
1698- Improved access to models (modeling-V03-02-03).

1701
170224th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-06)
1703- Needs greps-V03-02-01 for small interface change to G4Scale.
1704- Includes modeling-V03-02-02.
1705- Force rebuild of graphics "stores" (graphical databases) and, if
1706 auto-refresh is true, refresh of all views
1707 (/vis/scene/notifyHandlers) after an addition to scene.
1708- Improvements to /vis/scene/add/scale:
1709 o Added colour.
1710 o Assigned a genuine extent.
1711
171223rd July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-05 is non existent - sorry!!!)

1718
171919th July 2001 Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-02-03)
1720- Modification of G4DAWNFILEViewer.cc
1721- PostScript command "showpage" is always added to g4_XX.eps
1722 so that it is printable. (It can also be inserted into
1723 LaTeX documents.
1724
172518th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-02)
1726- Ensured rotation and translation of replica is restored (modeling-V03-02-00)
1727 (fixes crashes in replica tracking).
1728
172914th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-01)
1730- Included raytracer-V03-02-00 (minor cosmetics).
1731- Minor changes in G4OpenGLXViewer.cc to eliminate pedantic ISO C++ warnings.
1732- Merged vis-V03-02-patch01 (below) to head.

1734
173514th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-patch01 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1736- Fixed crash in optimised mode: added Initialise() to viewers so
1737 that windows are opened after viewers are fully constructed.
1738
173910th July 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-02-00)
1740- Removed old-style commands.
1741- Removed maintenance of G4VisManager's G4ViewParameters object (this

1744
174510th July John Allison (vis-V03-02-patch00 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1746- Corrected mistake which could cause crash if user specified a non-
1747 existent scene handler in /vis/sceneHandler/remove.
1748

1785- Added missing files G4ASCIITreeMessenger.hh/cc.
1786- Bug fix in G4ASCIITreeMessenger.cc: currentAsDefault = true.
1787- Drivers in alphabetical order in MyVisManager.cc.
1788
178923rd May 2001 John Allison
1790- Eliminated Linux pedantic warnings, except FukuiRenderer, VRML and OPACS.
1791
179222nd May 2001 John Allison
1793- Refined ASCIITree.
1794
179521st May 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-02)
1796- Minor bug corrections (mostly to fix things that used to work with the
1797 old /vis~/ commands but ceased to work with the new /vis/commands:
1798 o If a scene is empty at drawing time, the "world" is added.
1799 o Window size hint now works for OpenGL.
1800- Fixed some minor warnings for strict C++ (size_t, etc.).
1801
180218th May 2001 John Allison
1803- Removed unnecessary virtual inheritance of G4VViewer in G4RayTracerViewer.
1804- Introduced verbosity to ASCIITree.
1805- Proper deletion of directories in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.
1806
180715th May 2001 John Allison
1808- Fixed bug in name of /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane command.
1809
18103rd May 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-01)
1811- Changes for greps-V03-01-01 (elimination of RW).
1812- Improvements in /vis/scene/add/volume.
1813- Added /vis/drawTree.
1814
181510th April 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-00)
1816- Added two new commands:
1817 /vis/scene/add/text
1818 /vis/scene/add/axes
1819- Added first version of ASCIITree to dump geometry hierarchy to
1820 standard output as ASCII stream.
1821 This requires two new environment variables:
1822 G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1823 G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1824 and config-V03-01-00.
1825
18262nd April 2001 John Allison
1827- Tidied OpenGL (opengl-V03-00-01) - see OpenGL/History.
1828
18292nd April 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-09)
1830- Fixed some warnings from DEC cxx.
1831
183215th March 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-08)
1833- Changed rotation of phi-replicas in G4PhysicalVolumeModel.cc to
1834 ensure correspondence with rule that phi=0 bisects the replica.
1835 WARNING: Prior to this fix the graphics did NOT correspond to the
1836 replica navigation. If you have been relying on the graphics to
1837 position daughter volumes in a phi-replica, navigation will have
1838 been incorrect, possibly without causing a crash. The above fix
1839 will change the apparent position as shown by the graphics and you
1840 will have to correct the positioning of daughters. Make sure the
1841 diaghters are all properly enclosed within the replica. Graphics
1842 and navigation now correspond,
1843
18447th March 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-07)
1845- Cosmetic corrections for ISO compliance.
1846
184723rd February 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-06)
1848- Removed all references to RogueWave.
1849
18504th February 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-05)
1851- Reverted to /vis/viewer commands updating vis manager's view parameters.
1852 Otherwise this can have a big effect on users if old commands are still
1853 being used. Let's schedule this change for the next version of Geant4.
1854- Added the following new commands:
1855 /vis/enable [true|false]
1856 /vis/disable
1857 /vis/verbose [<verbosity-integer>]
1858 /vis/viewer/set/lineSegmentsPerCircle [<number-of-sides-per-circle>]
1859 /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane ...
1860 Only /vis/scene/add/text and /vis/scene/add/axes to go!!!
1861
18624th February 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-04)
1863- /vis/viewer commands no longer update vis manager's view parameters.
1864- Most /vis~/ copmmands give DEPRECATED warning, except:
1865 /vis~/draw/axes
1866 /vis~/draw/text
1867 /vis~/set/section_plane
1868 /vis~/set/sides
1869 /vis~/set/verbose
1870 which have still to be re-implemented. All /vis~/ commands are still
1871 available through /vis/ for the time being. (Window size hint no longer
1872 works.)
1873- Added "auto refresh" to view parameters.
1874- Added "default" view parameters to viewers.
1875- Made OpenGL viewers "auto refresh" by default.
1876- Added:
1877 /vis/viewer/set/autoRefresh
1878 /vis/viewer/set/projection
1879- Added compound command:
1880 /vis/drawView [<theta-deg>] [<phi-deg>]
1881 [<pan-right>] [<pan-up>] [<pan-unit>]
1882 [<zoom-factor>]
1883 [<dolly>] [<dolly-unit>]
1884
18854th February 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-03)
1886- Added several new vis commands:
1887 /vis/viewer/dolly
1888 /vis/viewer/dollyTo
1889 /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi
1890 /vis/viewer/lightsVector
1891 /vis/viewer/pan
1892 /vis/viewer/panTo
1893 /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi
1894 /vis/viewer/viewpointVector
1895 /vis/viewer/zoom
1896 /vis/viewer/zoomTo
1897 /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker
1898 /vis/viewer/set/lightsMove
1899
19003rd February 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-02)
1901- Tidied for CodeWizard. Small changes to many files in management, modeling
1902 and OpenGL.
1903
19041st February 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-00-01)
1905- Fixed cause of crash when setting viewpoint before creating scene (Bug #157).
1906 Solution: SetView no longer called when view parameters are changed. In
1907 any case it's called just before drawing, whixh is the right place.
1908- Fixed /vis/set/sides problem (Satoshi Tanaka) (Bug #204).
1909 Solution: Update view's view parameters in /vis/set/sides - had somehow
1910 been overlooked.
1911
191225th January 2001 John Allison
1913- Added protection against empty G4Polyhedron objects.
1914 FukuiRenderer/src/G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1915 OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc
1916 OpenGL/src/G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
1917 OpenInventor/src/G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc
1918 VRML/src/G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1919 VRML/src/G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1920
192125th January 2001 John Allison (opengl-V03-00-00)
1922- Fixed Bug #120. Implemented running re-calculation of up-vector in
1923 the case of "object rotation" (lights move with camera) to prevent
1924 "flipping" of view when camera passes through up-vector. Note that
1925 the default is "camera rotation" (lights do not move with camera,
1926 i.e., remain fixed relative to object) so the default is that this
1927 "flipping" can happen. To set "object rotation" (lights move with
1928 camera) use /vis/lights/move_with_camera true (soon to be
1929 /vis/viewer/set/lights move-with-camera) or click "Object" radio
1930 button on Rotation Panel in OpenGLXm mode.
1931- Changed some objects to references for efficiency. E.g.:
1932 const G4Vector3D& vp = pView->fVP.GetViewpointDirection ().unit ();
1933
193418th January 2001 John Allison
1935- Corrected G4PhysicalVolumeModel. This corrects a bug whereby the
1936 requested drawing of a physical volume and its decendants starting
1937 at a depth greater than 2 was incorrectly positioned on the screen.
1938- /vis/scene/include commands withdrawn - use equivalent commands
1939 /vis/scene/add.
1940- OpenGL: cosmetic and minor performance improvements.
1941
194216th January 2001 John Allison (vis-03-00-00)
1943- All vis commands "available" in all G4 states.
1944- Other small cosmetic changes to commands.
1945- OpenGL: square and circle markers correctly rendered.
1946 Note: subsequent rotations in stored mode also rotate these markers.
1947- Some small changes to test - see test/History.
1948
19492nd November 2000 Gunter Folger (vis-V02-00-02)
1950- Added targets includes and clean_libs to visualization/GNUmakefile.
1951
195218th October 2000 John Allison (vis-V02-00-01)
1953- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: protected against volumes without material.
1954- Removed /vis/viewer/update from compound commands /vis/drawVolume
1955 and /vis/specify.
1956- Updated comments in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.cc.
1957
195819th August 2000 John Allison (vis-V02-00-00)
1959- Fixed bug in /vis/lights/direction - now does not refresh view.
1960- Corrected "scene" where it should read "scene handler" in some
1961 comments and output statements.
1962
19633rd July 2000 John Allison
1964- Explicitly initialised all data members of G4ViewParameters in constructor.
1965
19669th June 2000 John Allison (vis-V01-01-06)
1967- Tagged for system testing.
1968
19698th June 2000 Guy Barrand
1970- OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc : correct polyhedron
1971 wire-frame in order to remove some edges. Now the
1972 rendering is the same than for OpenGL driver.
1973 This was requested for long by ALICE, and had been
1974 requested for ATLAS by Gaston Parrour recently.
1975
19767th June 2000 John Allison
1977- /vis/viewer/update preferred, synonym /vis/viewer/show deprecated.
1978
19797th June 2000 Makoto Asai
1980- Fix the flip view of RayTracer.
1981

2061- Updated README file.
2062
206312th April 2000 John Allison vis-V01-01-01
2064- Made G4PhysicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid virtual.
2065- G4PhysicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid no longer deals with composite
2066 solids - now programmed into CompositeSolid::CreatePolyhedron, where
2067 CompositeSolid means G4IntersectionSolid, G4SubtractionSolid and
2068 G4UnionSolid.
2069- G4PhysicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid no longer deals with displaced
2070 solids - now programmed into G4DisplacedSolid::CreatePolyhedron.
2071- Added G4LogicalVolumeModel::DescribeSolid, which explicitly adds
2072 components of composite solids as white forced-wireframe objects.
2073- Removed unnecessary #includes from G4VSceneHandler.hh which required
2074 consequent inclusion in many other scene handlers and viewers.
2075
20767th April 2000 John Allison vis-V01-01-00
2077- Modified GNUmakefiles for restructured geometry.
2078
207929th February 2000 John Allison vis-V01-00-06

2243 clearly has precision problem on some platforms (at least
2244 Linux and HP-UX).
2245
2246vis-V00-01-05 4th October 1999 John Allison

2344 See modeling/History.
2345- OpenGL: - Corrected edgeCount check for triangles in
2346 G4OpenGLSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Polyhedron&).
2347 - Added (long unsigned int) cast in G4OpenGLXmRotationCallbacks.cc.
2348 - Added SetView and ShowView to G4OpenGLXViewer:
2349 // To force change of context...
2350 void G4OpenGLXViewer::SetView () {
2351 glXMakeCurrent (dpy, win, cx);

2357 glFlush ();
2358 }
2359
2360
2361vis-01-00-04 11th January 1999 John Allison
2362- Completed change of names from scene to sceneHandler, view to viewer.

2382
2383vis-00-04-03 9th December 1998 John Allison
2384- Made /vis/ commands from /vis~/. The idea is to maintain backwards
2385 compatibility while allowing us to "deprecate" the old commands over
2386 a period of time. Some of these /vis/ commands respond with "superceded",
2387 i.e., superceded by new commands, but still available in /vis~/.
2388- OpenGL viewing volume increased by 20% to prevent corners being clipped.
2389
2390- 08/12/98 : G.Barrand : OpenInventor : due to
2391 huge load problems on various platforms, init only
2392 the HEPVis things that are needed.

2406 G4ModelingParameters and G4ViewParameters.
2407- G4PhysicalVolumeModel can now handle invisible daughters.
2408- More new /vis/ commands - depends on intercoms-00-04-01.
2409- G4VScene passes DefaultVisAttributes* to ModelingParameters.
2410
2411vis-00-03-07 23rd November 1998 John Allison.
2412- modeling/GNUmakefile update for move of files in particles (Hisaya).

2425vis-00-03-05a 9th November 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2426- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is added to
2427 management/include/MyVisManager.cc.
2428
2429vis-00-03-05 9th November 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2430- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is commited:
2431 (1) Generatin of VRML 2.0 format files to describe Geant4 simulation.
2432 (2) Interactive displaying of physiccal-volume names and copy numbers
2433 (3) Interactive displaying of hit positions (displayed strings are
2434 costomizable.
2435 (4) Wireframe drawing style of Geant4 visualization is reflected as
2436 transparency = 0.7. This value is customizable.
2437 If transparency is 1.0, drawing of detector geometry is skipped,
2438 and hits can be picked easily.
2439
24406th November 1998 John Allison
2441- Implemented basic /vis/viewer commands.
2442- Added `const G4String& name' argument to G4VScene and G4VView constructors.
2443
2444vis-00-03-04 30th October 1998 John Allison
2445- Tagged.
2446
244729th October 1998 Guy Barrand
2448- G4OpenGLXView.hh, G4OpenGLXmView.cc, G4OpenGLXmWindowHandlingCallbacks.cc
2449 in order that things compile and compile without warnings on HP/aCC
2450
245114th October 1998 John Allison
2452- Augmented the new /vis/ commands. Still not complete but they
2453 co-work with the old commands.
2454- Changed char* fName to G4String fName in G4VScene and G4VView.
2455 Consequent changes in G4OpenGLView. Also OpenInventor? Etc.
2456
245711th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2458- added (not a very good) version of hidden lines removal code. This code
2459 suffers from depth buffering artefacts. glPolygonOffset is a feature of
2460 OpenGL version 1.1, and can help overcome depth buffer problems. The code
2461 to utilise glPolygonOffset is committed, but commented out, as it doesn't
2462 seem to work with the version of Mesa available on rsplus currently. My
2463 ideal strategy is to enable depth testing, draw the model as lines, enable
2464 filled polygon offsetting (glPolygonOffset(1.0 /*offset scale factor*/,
2465 2/*offset bias*/); glEnable (GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILLED);) then draw the
2466 model as filled polygons. The offsetting should just add `2' (in window
2467 coordinates, I think) onto the z value of all vertices relating to filled
2468 polygons, thus dismissing the conflict between almost identical z values
2469 for lines and filled polygon edges.
2470
2471vis-00-03-03 9th October 1998 John Allison
2472- G4VisManager inherits G4VStateDependent. This is used to draw
2473 end-of-event models.
2474
24754th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2476- Added ability for all G4OpenGLX derived graphics systems to produce
2477 vectored PostScript hardcopy. Facility for `automated screen dump'
2478 (i.e. pixmap output) still kept, as some rasterization features
2479 don't make it into the vectored PostScript output (such as haloing
2480 effects). Facility currently available via G4OpenGLXm by clicking
2481 `Miscellany' then `Create .eps file', to get a popup printing
2482 window.
2483
2484vis-00-03-02a 26th September 1998
2485- DAWNFILE driver is made platform dependent.
2486 (It is now compilable both at both Unix and NT without necessity
2487 of C macros like WIN32.)
2488
2489vis-00-03-02 25th September 1998
2490- DAWNFILE driver is ported to VC++
2491
2492vis-00-03-01 24th September 1998 John Allison

2560- G4RayView: syntax bug fixes.
2561
25624th August 1998 Andy Walkden
2563I made some changes to OpenGL code...
2564The changes are (i) to tidy up some redundant hidden line
2565removal function calls, (ii) to put some hidden line removal
2566code in G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive(G4Polyhedron) and
2567(iii) to add an option to generate an encapsulated postscript
2568file of the current view in OpenGLXm. There is now a button
2569in the Miscellany pulldown of the main menubar to bring up
2570a shell in which you can specify a filename, colour or black
2571and white and request the creation of a .eps file. The
2572code is to be found in G4OpenGLXView, and so is not bound
2573to the Xm user. Also it needs fixing for some Mesa
2574implementations, and the HP CDE environment manages to stuff
2575things up when rendering to a pixmap (although CDE makes a
2576mess of most other things as well, so this isn't
2577disastrous).
2578
2579
2580vis-00-01-08 21th July 1998 John Allison
2581- Removed automatic refresh from /vis/camera/reset in G4VisCommandsCamera.cc.
2582
2583vis-00-01-07b 21th July 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2584- Revised G4FRSCENE::SendBoundingBox() so that
2585 zooming polycy of DAWN drivers becomes consistent with
2586 OpenGL drivers
2587
2588vis-00-01-07 20th July 1998 John Allison
2589- Corrected bug in G4VisManager::IsViewValid to trap drawing commands
2590 before geometry is available.
2591
2592vis-00-01-06 19th July 1998 John Allison
2593- Default culling: culling - on, culling of invisible objects - on.
2594- set/drawing_style does *not* change culling flags.

2649
2650vis-00-06-07 19th June 1998 John Allison

2652 the head version of GNUmakefile.architecture.
2653- Consequential changes (improvements) to template handling in test19.cc
2654- Some minor improvements in modeling.
2655
2656vis-00-06-06 11th June 1998 John Allison
2657- Fixes to test_utils - see test/History.
2658- Improvements in modeling - see modeling/History.
2659
2660vis-00-06-05 11th June 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2661- In G4VisManMessDraw.cc and G4VisManMessSet.cc , ...
2662 // G4double unit = G4UIcommand::valueOf (unitString);
2663 G4double unit = G4UnitDefinition::GetValueOf (unitString);
2664
2665vis-00-06-04 10th June 1998 John Allison

2673
2674vis-00-06-03 27th May 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2675- DAWNFILE driver is added. It is to generate g4.prim file
2676 under the current directory. And make DAWN or DAVID invoke
2677 using the g4.prim file as an input. For details, see the blackboard
2678 document.
2679
268021st May 1998 Andy Walkden
2681- Added hidden line removal code to G4OpenGLView. HLR utilises OpenGL's
2682 stencil buffer, but still the drawn lines are a little fragmented
2683 (an effect seen often when depth buffering is used to resolve pixel
2684 rendering disputes).
2685- HLR requires wireframe rendering, filled polygon rendering and then wireframe
2686 rendering again. Hence, three visits to the kernel help to slow HLR
2687 rendering right down.
2688
2689vis-00-06-02 20th May 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2690- Added G4VisFeaturesOfDAWNFILE.hh, cc
2691- Revised visualization/GNUmakefile, GNUmakefile.G4VIS_BUILD,

2701 Establish/DecommissionSpecials (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2702 G4VGraphicsScene with implementation of the former in G4VScene.
2703 Modified G4PhysicalVolumeModel to use it; also protected
2704 G4PhysicalVolumeModel against non-implementation of
2705 Establish/DecommissionSpecials.
2706- Template instantiations in G4RayView made exclusive to GNU_GCC
2707- Some minor changes under test - see test/History.
2708

2710- altered OpenGLView's structure a little. Now, G4OpenGLXmView is a
2711 type of (inherits from) G4OpenGLXView.
2712- made code for haloing effects common to all OpenGL views.
2713- changed XUnmapWindow in G4OpenGLXView::~G4OpenGLXView to XDestroyWindow
2714 (idea of Guy's)
2715

2726- Added run-time command line argument: test19 [<session-type>] [<verbosity>]
2727- Removed #if GNU_GCC from template instantiation requests in test19.cc.
2728- Added fDefaultTextVisAttributes to G4ViewParameters.
2729- Added G4VScene::GetTextColour (changed G4FukuiRendererScene, G4GoScene and
2730 G4OpenInventorScene.
2731- Changed default view parameters: culling on and invisible object culling on.
2732- Tidied CreateScene/View.
2733- Continued BaBar development.
2734
273515th April 1998 John Allison
2736- Added test/EucIntfce/, test/Bogus/ and test/babar_utils/ for BaBar test code.
2737 Also a new main() in BaBarCallListTest.cc. Also a data file call_list.dat.
2738 See babar_utils/README.
2739- Camera commands, except spin and orbit, no longer initiate draw.
2740- Text is blue for time being (visible on black or white background.)
2741

2743- From discussion with John and Simone G4VToolkit
2744 has been renamed to G4VInteractorManager.
2745
2746vis-00-05-04a 11th April 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2747- Code improvements in DAWN driver
2748- (1) View parameters are sent to DAWN only at drawing times.
2749- (2) Way of getting marker size are made simpler by using
2750- G4VScene::GetMarkerRadius () etc.
2751
2752vis-00-05-04 8th April 1998 John Allison
2753- Small bug fix - then tag for Easter.
2754
2755HEAD 6th April 1998 John Allison
2756- Added error printing to G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text).
2757- Added /vis~/draw/text.
2758- Added units to /vis~/draw/axes.
2759- Began the job of restructuring vis commands; so there is a new class
2760 G4VisCommandsCameraMessengers for starters!
2761
2762HEAD 4th April 1998 John Allison
2763- Removed automatic drawing after /vis~/set commands. Now an explicit
2764 redraw is necessary, but it allows you to change parameters during
2765 building a view. For example to superimpose projected hits on a
2766 section:
2767 /vis~/clear/view
2768 /vis~/set/section_plane on 0 0 20 cm 0 0 1
2769 /vis~/draw/current
2770 /vis~/set/section_plane off
2771 /run/beamOn
2772- Fixed small bug in OpenGL for section drawing.
2773- Made some small improvements in G4ViewParameters.
2774
2775vis-00-05-03 4th April 1998 John Allison
2776- Re-engineered maintenance of current depth, etc. Needed new method
2777 G4VGraphicsScene::BeginModeling (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2778 graphics_reps. The result is much cleaner model and modeling
2779 parameters classes. Also, the current depth, physical volume and
2780 logical volume are immediately available as protected pointers in
2781 G4VScene.
2782- Required G4VScene::Begin/EndModeling to be invoked from subclass.
2783- Introduced G4NullModel to hold modeling parameters. This avoids
2784 having to create a G4VModel for each graphics primitive.
2785
2786HEAD 3rd April 1998 John Allison
2787- Added GetMarkerDiameter/Radius to G4VScene.
2788- Bug fix in G4VScene::GetMarkerSize.
2789- Removed GetCurrentPhysicalVolume from G4PhysicalVolumeModel - now in
2790 G4ModelingParameters (but might move again soon!).
2791- test/GNUmakefile now uses "$(MAKE) separate" for vis libraries.
2792- test19 recognises argument "1" as a verbose flag value.
2793
2794HEAD April 2, 98 G.Barrand
2795- Modifications for Win32/NT.
2796- G4VIS_BUILD_[OIX, OIWIN32]_DRIVER, G4VIS_USE_[OIX, OIWIN32]

2799- Added GetMarkerSize to G4VScene.
2800- Made ~G4VisManager virtual.
2801- Added current logical volume and current physical volume to working
2802 space in modeling parameters. So it is no longer necessary to cast
2803 to G4PhysicalVolumeModel; all such casts removed.
2804- Moved nested classes out of G4RayView.
2805
2806HEAD March 24, 98 G.Cosmo
2807- Modified G4VisManMessExpert.cc to correctly use random numbers
2808 by calling directly G4UniformRand().
2809
2810HEAD March 24, 98 G.Barrand
2811- GNUmakefile : MAKESHLIB changed in G4MAKESHLIB
2812
2813vis-00-05-01a 24 March 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2814- Geometry tree can be obtained by, e.g.,
2815 % grep PVName g4.prim > g4.tree
2816
2817vis-00-05-01 23rd March 1998 John Allison
2818- Made RegisterGraphicsSystems pure virtual.
2819- Added verbose level control to printing at initialization.
2820- Fixed (hopefully) bug in scene deletion.
2821- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Text/Circle/Square) pure virtual.
2822 (Had to add dummy void G4VRML1SCENE::AddPrimitive (const G4Text&).)
2823- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) virtual again.
2824- Opened some .hh files to G4VIS_USE flags.
2825- Removed Pre/PostAddThis from some graphics systems (not OPACS, OI).
2826- First implementation of G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy (DTREE).
2827- Added Get Global/Current Tag/Description to G4VModel.
2828- Introduced "working space" in G4ModelingParameters for geometry depth.
2829- Relocated some template instantiation requests (might give trouble on DEC).
2830
2831vis-00-04-05a 16th March 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2832- DAWN driver outputs physical-volume names and copy number.
2833
2834vis-00-04-05 5th March 1998 John Allison
2835- Added G4Text/Circle/Square in G4RayScene.hh.
2836- Added G4Text/Circle/Square in G4BoundingSphereScene.hh.
2837- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) non-virtual in G4VScene.hh.
2838
2839HEAD 5th March 1998 Andy Walkden
2840- Implemented G4Circle/Square.
2841- Added haloing to OpenGLXm "value added" options.
2842
2843HEAD 5th March 1998 S.Sadilov

2853 mode in which EPS files are generated.
2854
2855vis-00-04-04 4th March 1998 John Allison
