596- Collected tags below.  Main features since Release 8.0:
597  o Added /vis/scene/transientsAction.  The default is "rerun", i.e.,
598    when the viewer requests, the previous event or run will be
599    processed again with the original random number seed so that
600    transients (trajectories, hits, user drawing, etc.) are
601    reconstructed.  Thus, transients are "remembered" and may be
602    copied between graphics systems.  Turn off with
603    "/vis/scene/transientsAction none".
604  o Introduced /vis/geometry/... for editing vis attributes of
605    geometry volumes.

79230th September 2005  Joseph Perl (raytracer-V07-01-03)
793New tag to include change Makoto made an hour after V07-01-02 was tagged.
794Change seems to just involve passing pWorld to material list where no argument was passed in previous version.

890
89122nd April 2005  John Allison

893
89410th April 2005  John Allison  (visman-V07-00-00)
895- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: 2nd attempt to fix access to fpVisManager
896  from nested class for SUN.
897
89816th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-13)
899- G4VisCommandsSceneAdd.cc: fixed access to fpVisManager from nested class.
900- For gcc 2.95.2: Fixed G4String return for viewer commands.
901- Added constructor and virtual destructor to G4VUserVisAction.
902
90315th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-12)
904- Added return type G4int to G4ViewParameters::SetNoOfSides and
905  G4ModelingParameters::SetNoOfSides.  They return no. of sides, i.e.,
906  sides per circle in polyhedron contruction, that are actually set;
907  there is a lower limit of 12.
908- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: bug fix: no. of rotation steps correctly applied.
909
91010th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-11)
911- Reviewed all vis commands.  Improved guidance, simplified and
912  rationalised the commands.
913
9149th March 2005  John Allison
915- Removed "remove" and "edit" commands.
916- G4VisManager: removed "Delete" methods. (Removing or deleting an
917  existing scene, scene handler or viewer is very messy and not
918  necessary.  When a user creates a new one, he/she may leave the old
919  one around without harm.  It may be left unused or selected again later
920  if the user wants.)
921- Removed automatic parameter candidate specification for commands
922  that take an argument that is a scene, scene handler or viewer
923  name - it is checked in SetNewValue methods.  (The code was just
924  too complicated and, anyway, the result hindered, rather than
925  helped the user, because it restricted the parameter values and
926  mis-typing gave obscure messages.  Now the messages are clearer and,
927  as the guidance points out, the list of possible names can be
928  obtained with a "list" command.)
929- Made "list" commands flag current items.
930- Improved guidance for /vis/scene commands.  Still to do (groan!):
931    /vis/scene/add
932    /vis/sceneHandler
933    /vis/viewer
934
9359th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-10, needs greps-V07-00-01)
936- Refined logo and scale.
937- Improved physical volume clipping.
938- G4VisManager: Added default G4Transform3D::Identity to
939  objectTransformation argument in Draw methods.
940
9414th March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-09)
942- Added first implementation of cutaway - a clipping box for physical
943  volume tree:
944    vis/scene/add/volume ! ! ! box km 0 1 0 1 0 1
945  (Does not seem properly to clip volumes wholly inside clipping volume.)
946
9473rd March 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-08)
948- Introduced /vis/scene/add/logo.
949- Added Set methods to G4VModel.
950- Added argument to G4CallbackModel::operator()(const G4Transform3D&) so that
951  the model could implement a given transformation.  Provided default for
952  G4VUserVisAction::(const G4Transform3D& = G4Transform3D::Identity).
953- Improved guidance for:
954    compound commands
955    ASCIITree commands
956- Used std::istrstream::istrstream(std::string) throughout.
957
95823rd February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-07)
959- Protected scene handlers for the case of the drawing of solids NOT
960  from a physical volume tree:
961    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
962    G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
963    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
964    G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler.cc
965    G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.cc
966- Fixed a problem with ClearTransientStore.  ClearTransientStore
967  should restrict itself to its job.  In the following files,
968  ClearTransientStore also redraws the view.  In other places, a draw
969  command often follows, so it is not needed here.  In fact it can
970  cause a double recursive descent into DrawView, so the existing code
971  has been commented out (JA - 23/Jan/05):
972    G4FRSceneFunc.icc
973    G4HepRepFileSceneHandler.cc
974    G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc
975    G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc
976    G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
977    G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
978    G4XXXSceneHandler.cc
979- Removed (commented out) some code that forced extra kernel visits,
980  purportedly to overcome a problem in OpenGLStored methods.  Let's
981  fix OpenGL if necessary:
982    G4VSceneHandler.cc
983    G4VViewer.cc
984- Commented out SetView and ClearView in /vis/viewer/refresh:
985    G4VisCommandsViewer.cc
986- Changed signature of G4VViewer::SetNeedKernelVisit(G4bool) for compatibility.
987
98819th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-06 with greps-V07-00-00)
989- Added G4VUserVisAction and G4CallbackModel.
990- Implemented /vis/scene/add/userAction.
991- Fixed bug in /vis/viewer/update (check existence of scene handler and scene).
992
99315th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-05)
994- Introduced drawing of readout geometry for logical volumes.
995- For drawing of logical volumes, introduced boolean flags to control
996  drawing of:
997    o boolean components (if any)
998    o voxels (if any) (note: voxels are not created until start of run)
999    o readout geometry (if any)
1000- Augmented commands /vis/specify and /vis/scene/add/logicalVolume to use
1001  above flags.
1002- G4ASCIITree: Added printing of names of sensitive detector (if any) and
1003  readout geometry (if any).
1004
100515th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-04)
1006- Updated READMEs for G4VisExecutive.  Removed references to OPACS.
1007
10089th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-03)
1009- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound: fixed previously
1010  missed FukuiRendererSceneHander.
1011
10124th February 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-02)
1013- Introduced G4VisExecutive.  MyVisManager deprecated.
1014
101527th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-01, needs intercoms-V07-00-00)
1016- Migration from AddThis to AddSolid and AddCompound.
1017- AddSolid: Methods for adding solids to the scene handler.  They
1018  must always be called in the triplet PreAddSolid, AddSolid and
1019  PostAddSolid.  The transformation and visualization attributes
1020  must be set by the call to PreAddSolid.  A possible default
1021  implementation is to request the solid to provide a G4Polyhedron
1022  or similar primitive - see, for example, G4VSceneHandler.
1023- AddCompound: Methods for adding "compound" GEANT4 objects to the scene
1024  handler.  These methods may either (a) invoke "user code" that
1025  uses the "user interface", G4VVisManager (see, for example,
1026  G4VSceneHandler in the Visualization Category, which for
1027  trajectories uses G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory, via
1028  G4TrajectoriesModel in the Modeling Category) or (b) invoke
1029  AddPrimitives below (between calls to Begin/EndPrimitives) or (c)
1030  use graphics-system-specific code or (d) any combination of the
1031  above.
1032
103326th January 2005  John Allison  (vis-V07-00-00)
1034- G4VisManager:: removed optional argument
1035  const G4Transform3D& objectTransformation = G4Transform3D::Identity
1036  from Draw methods for a hit and trajectory.
1037- Trapped illegal nesting of Begin/EndPrimitives.
1038- Added fpCurrentMaterial to G4VSceneHandler and relevant derived
1039  classes and models for work with G4PhysicalVolumeModel via
1040  EstablishSpecials.  So now, the material is also available (in addition
1041  to current depth, logical and physical volum) during drawing of geometry
1042  items.
1043- Changed ASCIITree to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume and
1044  G4LogicalVolume::GetMass.
1045- Changed G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene to use G4VSolid::GetCubicVolume.
1046- Improved guidance for /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker.
1047- G4VisCommandsViewerSet: made Up and Viewpoint vectors unit for safety.
1048- Some additions to test area.
1049
105010th December 2004 Gabriele Cosmo (vis-V06-02-09)
1051- Replaced M_PI with CLHEP's pi.
1052
10537th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-08)
1054- Tagged right after migration to cmath
1055- All occurences of include <math.h> have now become include <cmath>.
1056- All math functions are now prefaced with std::
1057
10587th December 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-07)
1059- Tagged right before migration to cmath
1060
106126th November 2004 Joseph Perl (vis-V06-02-06)
1062- Tagged for release 7.0.
1063- Made from vis-V06-02-05
1064- plus opengl-V06-02-07 by John Allison
1065- plus vis-HepRep-V06-02-02 by Mark Donszelmann
1066- plus openinventor-V07-00-00 by Guy Barrand
1067
106818th November 2004  John Allison
1069- Included opengl-V06-02-07.
1070
107111th November 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-05)
1072- Made use of smart method GetPolyhedron for solids.  This greatly
1073  speeds 2nd and subsequent drawings when kernel access is required.
1074- Rationalised use of EstablishSpecials: functionality moved to base class.
1075- Removed use of obsolete G4Polymarker::line.
1076
107722nd September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-04)
1078- Moved Doxyfile to management.  doxygen output to tmp area.
1079- modeling-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1080- vistree-V06-02-01 - small fixes.
1081- opengl-V06-02-06 - Trap non-regular polyhedra and other small changes.
1082- DAWN-V06-02-00 - Improve diagnostic on trapping non-regular polyhedra.
1083- vistest-V06-02-02: refined rotated tube test.
1084
108513th September 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-03)
1086- vistree-V06-02-00: Improved ASCIITree:
1087  verbosity >= 3: prints volume, density of all volumes in hierarchy.
1088  verbosity >= 4: calculates the mass of the complete geometry tree taking
1089    into account daughters up to the depth specified for each physical
1090    volume in the current scene.  Culling is ignored so that all volumes
1091    are processed.  The calculation is quite tricky, since it involves
1092    subtracting the mass of that part of the mother that is occupied by
1093    each daughter and then adding the mass of the daughter, and so on
1094    down the heirarchy.  Uses G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene - see below.
1095  Added option to write to file (/vis/ASCIITree/set/outFile).
1096- modeling-V06-02-00: Added G4PhysicalVolumeMassScene and improvements
1097  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  See modeling/History for more details.
1098- Removed obsolete file: G4VisToOldVisCommands.hh
1099- Corrected mistake in /vis/viewer/set/*Vector commands.
1100- Augmented ParameterisedBox and rotated a tracker tube in test directory.
1101- Brought README.built_in_commands up to date for Geant4 6.2.  Removed all
1102  references to old commands.'
1103
11043rd August 2004  John Allison
1105- Rationalised vis command code (uses G4UIcommand static conversion
1106  functions where possible).
1107- Removed G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle GetDrawingStyle (const
1108  G4Visible&).  Instead, developer has to:
1109    // Get vis attributes - pick up defaults if none.
1110    const G4VisAttributes* pVA =
1111      fpViewer -> GetApplicableVisAttributes (v.GetVisAttributes ());
1112  where v is the visible object (polyline, circle, polyhedron, etc.), and:
1113    // Get view parameters that the user can force through the vis
1114    // attributes, thereby over-riding the current view parameter.
1115    G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle drawing_style = GetDrawingStyle (pVA);
1116    G4bool isAuxEdgeVisible = GetAuxEdgeVisible (pVA);
1117  Most developers do this anyway, so the removed routine was redundant
1118  and resulting code is more efficient and transparent.  To get
1119  colour, the developer can pick up directly from the vis attrributes,
1120  pVA, obtained as above:
1121    const G4Colour& c = pVA -> GetColour ();
1122  or use a slightly less efficient method:
1123    const G4Colour& c = GetColour (v);
1124  where v is the visible object.
1125  Note that for text, the developer must use a different procedure,
1126  since the default text colour is determined by the default text vis
1127  attributes, which may be specified independent of default vis
1128  attributes of other types of visible objects.  A function,
1129  GetTextColour, is provided and the recommended use is:
1130    const G4Colour& c = GetTextColour (text);  // Picks up default if none.
1131- Rationalised use of vis attributes in OpenGL and XXX.
1132
113328th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-02 with greps-V06-02-00)
1134- Implemented force auxiliary edge visible feature of G4VisAttributes.
1135- Included openinventor-V06-02-00 (minor revision - Guy Barrand).
1136
113723rd July 2004  John Allison
1138- Added auxiliary edge visible flag to G4ViewParameters and a new
1139  command, /vis/viewer/set/auxiliaryEdge.  (Auxiliary edges are not
1140  genuine edges of the volume.  They may be in a curved surface made
1141  out of polygons, for example, or in plane surface of complicated
1142  shape that has to be broken down into simpler polygons.
1143  HepPolyhedron breaks all surfaces into triangles or quadrilaterals.
1144  There will be auxiliary edges for any volumes with a curved surface,
1145  such as a tube or a sphere, or a volume resulting from a Boolean
1146  operation.  Normally, they are not shown, but sometimes it is useful
1147  to see them.  In particular, a sphere, because it has no egdes, will
1148  not be seen in wireframe mode in some graphics systems unless this
1149  flag is turned on.)
1150
115116th July 2004  John Allison
1152- Refined forced wireframe algorithm - *always* force wireframe even
1153  if hidden line removal is specified.
1154- opengl-V06-02-04.
1155
115615th July 2004  John Allison
1157- Small improvement to G4XXX (sample graphics system).
1158
115914th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-01)
1160- Removed deprecated commands:
1161    /vis/viewer/show               (use /vis/viewer/update)
1162    /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi     (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsThetaPhi)
1163    /vis/viewer/lightsVector       (use /vis/viewer/set/lightsVector)
1164    /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi  (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointThetaPhi)
1165    /vis/viewer/viewpointVector    (use /vis/viewer/set/viewpointVector)
1166  (See geant4/source/visualization/README.built_in_commands for list
1167  of current commands.)
1168- Tidied guidance for /vis/viewer/set.
1169- Included opengl-V06-02-03 (cosmetic).
1170
117114th July 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-02-00)
1172- opengl-V06-02-02 and vistest-V06-02-01:
1173  Hidden line *and/or* hidden surface removal now work for OGL*X and OGL*Xm.
1174
11751st July 2004  John Allison
1176- Correction to guidance of /vis/viewer/set/hiddenEdge.
1177- Small improvement to README of /vis/scene/add/axes.
1178- vistest-V06-02-00.
1179- opengl-V06-02-00.
1180- visman-V06-02-00: Fix for porting on gcc-3.4.0: made ProcessView()
1181  public, since used as private friend (Gabriele Cosmo).
1182
11839th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-03)
1184- Adopt G4DLLIMPORT/G4DLLEXPORT technique to handle extern simbols for
1185  allowing support of DLLs on Windows.
1186- Minor correction in modeling/GNUmakefile for GLOBLIBS definition.
1187- Coworks with "global-V06-01-02b".
1188

1587- Moved default value G4Transform3D::Identity of argument from
1588  G4VSceneHandler::BeginPrimitives to
1589  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginPrimitives.  Needs intercoms-V03-02-03.
1590- Fixed bug in G4VSceneHandler::AddPrimitive(const G4Scale&).  Needs
1591  greps-V03-02-02.
1592- Added sceneHandler.Begin/EndPrimitives messages to models (long
1593  standing bug!).
1594- Removed "dummy" graphics systems in G4VisManager.cc.
1595- Improved robustness of some commands, particularly
1596  /vis/scene/notifyHandlers.
1597- Improved support for multiple viewers (but see OpenGL/History).
1598
159911th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-01)
1600- Implemented /vis/scene/endOfEventAction.
1601
16029th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-00)
1603- Note: non-standard tag to indicate internal use only.
1604- Added /vis/scene/create at start of compound command /vis/open to avoid
1605  warnings.
1606- Removed G4ModelingParameters::hierarchy.  It is no longer used.  The
1607  textual or graphical representation of the geometry hierarchy is now
1608  done in G4xxxTree classes in visua;ization/Tree.
1609- Removed /vis/scene/notifyHandlers from
1610  G4VVisCommandScene::UpdateVisManagerScene - too much updating going on.
1611  It was leading to recursive refreshing/updating.
1612- Implemented auto-refresh at end of event.  (See also OpenGL/History.)
1613  Introduced G4VSceneHandler::Get/SetMarkForClearingTransientStore for
1614  postponed (lazy) clearing of transients (e.g., trajectories) from store
1615  (graphical database) and view.  The mark is set at the end of
1616  G4VisManager::EndOfEvent and the actual clearing is done in:
1617    void G4VisManager::ClearTransientStoreIfMarked(){
1618      // Assumes valid view.
1619      if (fpSceneHandler->GetMarkForClearingTransientStore()) {
1620        fpSceneHandler->SetMarkForClearingTransientStore(false);
1621        fpSceneHandler->ClearTransientStore();
1622      }
1623    }
1624  which is called at the start of each G4VisManager::Draw and the beginning
1625  of G4VisManager::EndOfEvent.  Thus the picture stays from the end of all
1626  drawing for the event until the first drawing of the next event.
1627   
16285th August 2001  John Allison
1629- Small refinements to printing under new verbosity control.
1630
16314th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10)
1632- Re-implemented verbosity control.  Output statements wherever possible
1633  are controlled by the verbosity in a simple graded message scheme:
1634    enum Verbosity {
1635      quiet,         // Nothing is printed.
1636      startup,       // Startup and endup messages are printed...
1637      errors,        // ...and errors...
1638      warnings,      // ...and warnings...
1639      confirmations, // ...and confirming messages...
1640      parameters,    // ...and parameters of scenes and views...
1641      all            // ...and everything available.
1642    };
1643  Note that the G4VisManager member object name and type have changed:
1644    Verbosity             fVerbosity;  // New.
1645    const G4int           fVerbose;
1646    // fVerbose is kept for backwards compatibility for some user
1647    // examples.  (It is used in the derived user vis managers to print
1648    // available graphics systems.)  It is initialised to 1 in the
1649    // constructor and cannot be changed.
1650
16513rd August 2001  John Allison
1652- Added README.quick, a quick installation guide.
1653
165430th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-09)
1655- Eliminated view parameters from G4VisManager.  Now, each view maintains its
1656  own parameters.  Can be copied from one view to another with:
1657    /vis/viewer/set/all <from-viewer-name>
1658    Copies view parameters from from-viewer to current viewer.
1659    Affects current viewer.
1660- Removed redundant methods from G4VisManager, mostly to do with old-style
1661  commands.
1662
166327th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-08)
1664- Needs config-V03-02-01.
1665- Introduced environment variable G4VIS_NONE that, if set, no visualization
1666  drivers are built and no vis libraries are built, not even
1667  libG4vis_management.  (libG4modeling is still built.)  The C-pre-processor
1668  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are *not* set.
1669- Removed the need to specify environment variables for visualization drivers
1670  which do not need external packages or libraries, namely :
1671      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWNFILE_DRIVER
1672      G4VIS_BUILD_RAYTRACER_DRIVER
1673      G4VIS_BUILD_VRMLFILE_DRIVER
1674      G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1675      G4VIS_BUILD_GAGTREE_DRIVER
1676    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1677      G4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE
1678      G4VIS_USE_RAYTRACER
1679      G4VIS_USE_VRMLFILE
1680      G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1681      G4VIS_USE_GAGTREE
1682  For backwards compatibility, unless G4VIS_NONE is set, the corresponding
1683  C-pre-processor variables are automatically set.  Also, the C-pre-processor
1684  variables G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE are set.
1685- As before, environment variables for other drivers still need positive
1686  setting of their G4VIS_BUILD and G4VIS_USE environment variables.  In this
1687  category are:
1688      G4VIS_BUILD_DAWN_DRIVER
1689      G4VIS_BUILD_OPACS_DRIVER
1690      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLX_DRIVER
1691      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLWIN32_DRIVER
1692      G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLXM_DRIVER
1693      G4VIS_BUILD_OIX_DRIVER
1694      G4VIS_BUILD_OIWIN32_DRIVER
1695      G4VIS_BUILD_VRML_DRIVER
1696    with associated G4VIS_USE environment variables:
1697      G4VIS_USE_DAWN
1698      G4VIS_USE_OPACS
1699      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLX
1700      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLWIN32
1701      G4VIS_USE_OPENGLXM
1702      G4VIS_USE_OIX
1703      G4VIS_USE_OIWIN32
1704      G4VIS_USE_VRML
1705  In this case G4VIS_NONE must *not* be set.
1706- Fixed unchecked pointer in G4VSceneHandler::ClearStore().
1707
170825th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-07)
1709- Improved access to models (modeling-V03-02-03).
1710- Made G4VSceneHandler::fpModel non-const G4VModel* for convenience.
1711- Improved checks and warning messages in /vis/scene/add/scale.
1712
171324th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-06)
1714- Needs greps-V03-02-01 for small interface change to G4Scale.
1715- Includes modeling-V03-02-02.
1716- Force rebuild of graphics "stores" (graphical databases) and, if
1717  auto-refresh is true, refresh of all views
1718  (/vis/scene/notifyHandlers) after an addition to scene.
1719- Improvements to /vis/scene/add/scale:
1720  o Added colour.
1721  o Assigned a genuine extent.
1722
172323rd July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-05 is non existent - sorry!!!)
1724- Improved /vis/scene/add/scale.
1725- Improved auto-refreshing.
1726
172721st July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-04)
1728- Added /vis/scene/add/scale.  Needs greps-V03-02-00 and intercoms-V03-02-02.
1729
173019th July 2001  Satoshi Tanaka  (vis-V03-02-03)
1731- Modification of G4DAWNFILEViewer.cc
1732- PostScript command "showpage" is always added to g4_XX.eps
1733  so that it is printable. (It can also be inserted into
1734  LaTeX documents.
1735
173618th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-02)
1737- Ensured rotation and translation of replica is restored (modeling-V03-02-00)
1738  (fixes crashes in replica tracking).
1739
174014th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-01)
1741- Included raytracer-V03-02-00 (minor cosmetics).
1742- Minor changes in G4OpenGLXViewer.cc to eliminate pedantic ISO C++ warnings.
1743- Merged vis-V03-02-patch01 (below) to head.
1744- Included new disclaimer.
1745
174614th July 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-02-patch01 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1747- Fixed crash in optimised mode: added Initialise() to viewers so
1748  that windows are opened after viewers are fully constructed.
1749
175010th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-00)
1751- Removed old-style commands.
1752- Removed maintenance of G4VisManager's G4ViewParameters object (this
1753  will be removed soon).
1754- Merged vis-V03-02-patch00 (below) to head.
1755
175610th July  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-patch00 in branch geant4-03-02-branch)
1757- Corrected mistake which could cause crash if user specified a non-
1758  existent scene handler in /vis/sceneHandler/remove.
1759
176019th June 2001  Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-01-07)
1761-OS dependence is removed from the DAWN-network driver.
1762 * gethostname() removed
1763 * G4SocketConfig.hh and G4SocketMacro.hh are removed.
1764- Now "setenv G4DAWN_HOST_NAME hostname" is mandatory to use
1765  the DAWN-network driver.
1766
176715th June 2001  John Allison
1768- Added GAGTree to G4VisManager.cc, MyVisManager.cc.  Need corresponding
1769  changes in config.
1770
177115th June 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-06)
1772- Added 2nd template argument (less) to sets in G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler and
1773  G4GAGTreeSceneHandler.
1774
177515th June 2001  Satoshi Tanaka (vis-V03-01-05)
1776- The  first committing of GAGTree driver.
1777- Other files in ./Tree/ are the same as vis-V03-01-04.
1778
17795th June 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-04)
1780- Moved re-useable code from G4ASCIITree to G4VTree.
1781- Made sure all pointers in G4VisManager are initialised on construction.
1782
17834th June 2001  John Allison
1784- G4ASCIITree: Added logical volume name and solid name and type under
1785  verbosity control.
1786- G4ASCIITree: Forced culling off so that all volumes are seen, even if
1787  "invisible".
1788
178929th May 2001  John Allison
1790- Small clean up in test directory.
1791
179225th May 2001  John Allison
1793- Bug fix in G4ASCIITree.cc: initialise fVerbosity(0).
1794
179524th May 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-01-03)
1796- Added missing files G4ASCIITreeMessenger.hh/cc.
1797- Bug fix in G4ASCIITreeMessenger.cc: currentAsDefault = true.
1798- Drivers in alphabetical order in MyVisManager.cc.
1799
180023rd May 2001  John Allison
1801- Eliminated Linux pedantic warnings, except FukuiRenderer, VRML and OPACS.
1802
180322nd May 2001  John Allison
1804- Refined ASCIITree.
1805
180621st May 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-02)
1807- Minor bug corrections (mostly to fix things that used to work with the
1808  old /vis~/ commands but ceased to work with the new /vis/commands:
1809  o If a scene is empty at drawing time, the "world" is added.
1810  o Window size hint now works for OpenGL.
1811- Fixed some minor warnings for strict C++ (size_t, etc.).
1812
181318th May 2001 John Allison
1814- Removed unnecessary virtual inheritance of G4VViewer in G4RayTracerViewer.
1815- Introduced verbosity to ASCIITree.
1816- Proper deletion of directories in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.
1817
181815th May 2001 John Allison
1819- Fixed bug in name of /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane command.
1820
18213rd May 2001 John Allison (vis-V03-01-01)
1822- Changes for greps-V03-01-01 (elimination of RW).
1823- Improvements in /vis/scene/add/volume.
1824- Added /vis/drawTree.
1825
182610th April 2001  John Allison (vis-V03-01-00)
1827- Added two new commands:
1828    /vis/scene/add/text
1829    /vis/scene/add/axes
1830- Added first version of ASCIITree to dump geometry hierarchy to
1831  standard output as ASCII stream.
1832  This requires two new environment variables:
1833    G4VIS_BUILD_ASCIITREE_DRIVER
1834    G4VIS_USE_ASCIITREE
1835  and config-V03-01-00.
1836
18372nd April 2001  John Allison
1838- Tidied OpenGL (opengl-V03-00-01) - see OpenGL/History.
1839
18402nd April 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-09)
1841- Fixed some warnings from DEC cxx.
1842
184315th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-08)
1844- Changed rotation of phi-replicas in G4PhysicalVolumeModel.cc to
1845  ensure correspondence with rule that phi=0 bisects the replica.
1846  WARNING: Prior to this fix the graphics did NOT correspond to the
1847  replica navigation.  If you have been relying on the graphics to
1848  position daughter volumes in a phi-replica, navigation will have
1849  been incorrect, possibly without causing a crash.  The above fix
1850  will change the apparent position as shown by the graphics and you
1851  will have to correct the positioning of daughters.  Make sure the
1852  diaghters are all properly enclosed within the replica.  Graphics
1853  and navigation now correspond,
1854
18557th March 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-07)
1856- Cosmetic corrections for ISO compliance.
1857
185823rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-06)
1859- Removed all references to RogueWave.
1860
18614th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-05)
1862- Reverted to /vis/viewer commands updating vis manager's view parameters.
1863  Otherwise this can have a big effect on users if old commands are still
1864  being used.  Let's schedule this change for the next version of Geant4.
1865- Added the following new commands:
1866  /vis/enable [true|false]
1867  /vis/disable
1868  /vis/verbose [<verbosity-integer>]
1869  /vis/viewer/set/lineSegmentsPerCircle  [<number-of-sides-per-circle>]
1870  /vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane ...
1871  Only /vis/scene/add/text and /vis/scene/add/axes to go!!!
1872
18734th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-04)
1874- /vis/viewer commands no longer update vis manager's view parameters.
1875- Most /vis~/ copmmands give DEPRECATED warning, except:
1876  /vis~/draw/axes
1877  /vis~/draw/text
1878  /vis~/set/section_plane
1879  /vis~/set/sides
1880  /vis~/set/verbose
1881  which have still to be re-implemented.  All /vis~/ commands are still
1882  available through /vis/ for the time being.  (Window size hint no longer
1883   works.)
1884- Added "auto refresh" to view parameters.
1885- Added "default" view parameters to viewers.
1886- Made OpenGL viewers "auto refresh" by default.
1887- Added:
1888  /vis/viewer/set/autoRefresh
1889  /vis/viewer/set/projection
1890- Added compound command:
1891  /vis/drawView [<theta-deg>] [<phi-deg>]
1892                [<pan-right>] [<pan-up>] [<pan-unit>]
1893                [<zoom-factor>]
1894                [<dolly>] [<dolly-unit>]
1895
18964th February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-03)
1897- Added several new vis commands:
1898  /vis/viewer/dolly
1899  /vis/viewer/dollyTo
1900  /vis/viewer/lightsThetaPhi
1901  /vis/viewer/lightsVector
1902  /vis/viewer/pan
1903  /vis/viewer/panTo
1904  /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi
1905  /vis/viewer/viewpointVector
1906  /vis/viewer/zoom
1907  /vis/viewer/zoomTo
1908  /vis/viewer/set/hiddenMarker
1909  /vis/viewer/set/lightsMove
1910
19113rd February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-02)
1912- Tidied for CodeWizard.  Small changes to many files in management, modeling
1913  and OpenGL.
1914
19151st February 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-00-01)
1916- Fixed cause of crash when setting viewpoint before creating scene (Bug #157).
1917  Solution: SetView no longer called when view parameters are changed.  In
1918  any case it's called just before drawing, whixh is the right place.
1919- Fixed /vis/set/sides problem (Satoshi Tanaka) (Bug #204).
1920  Solution: Update view's view parameters in /vis/set/sides - had somehow
1921  been overlooked.
1922
192325th January 2001  John Allison
1924- Added protection against empty G4Polyhedron objects.
1925   FukuiRenderer/src/G4FRSceneFunc.icc
1926   OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc
1927   OpenGL/src/G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc
1928   OpenInventor/src/G4OpenInventorSceneHandler.cc
1929   VRML/src/G4VRML1SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1930   VRML/src/G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc.icc
1931
193225th January 2001  John Allison  (opengl-V03-00-00)
1933- Fixed Bug #120.  Implemented running re-calculation of up-vector in
1934  the case of "object rotation" (lights move with camera) to prevent
1935  "flipping" of view when camera passes through up-vector.  Note that
1936  the default is "camera rotation" (lights do not move with camera,
1937  i.e., remain fixed relative to object) so the default is that this
1938  "flipping" can happen.  To set "object rotation" (lights move with
1939  camera) use /vis/lights/move_with_camera true (soon to be
1940  /vis/viewer/set/lights move-with-camera) or click "Object" radio
1941  button on Rotation Panel in OpenGLXm mode.
1942- Changed some objects to references for efficiency.  E.g.:
1943  const G4Vector3D& vp = pView->fVP.GetViewpointDirection ().unit ();
1944
194518th January 2001  John Allison
1946- Corrected G4PhysicalVolumeModel.  This corrects a bug whereby the
1947  requested drawing of a physical volume and its decendants starting
1948  at a depth greater than 2 was incorrectly positioned on the screen.
1949- /vis/scene/include commands withdrawn - use equivalent commands
1950  /vis/scene/add.
1951- OpenGL: cosmetic and minor performance improvements.
1952
195316th January 2001  John Allison  (vis-03-00-00)
1954- All vis commands "available" in all G4 states.
1955- Other small cosmetic changes to commands.
1956- OpenGL: square and circle markers correctly rendered.
1957  Note: subsequent rotations in stored mode also rotate these markers.
1958- Some small changes to test  - see test/History.
1959
19602nd November 2000  Gunter Folger  (vis-V02-00-02)
1961- Added targets includes and clean_libs to visualization/GNUmakefile.
1962
196318th October 2000  John Allison  (vis-V02-00-01)
1964- G4PhysicalVolumeModel: protected against volumes without material.
1965- Removed /vis/viewer/update from compound commands /vis/drawVolume
1966  and /vis/specify.
1967- Updated comments in G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.cc.
1968
196919th August 2000  John Allison  (vis-V02-00-00)
1970- Fixed bug in /vis/lights/direction - now does not refresh view.
1971- Corrected "scene" where it should read "scene handler" in some
1972  comments and output statements.
1973
19743rd July 2000  John Allison
1975- Explicitly initialised all data members of G4ViewParameters in constructor.
1976
19779th June 2000  John Allison  (vis-V01-01-06)
1978- Tagged for system testing.
1979
19808th June 2000  Guy Barrand
1981- OPACS/src/G4GoSceneHandler.cc : correct polyhedron
1982  wire-frame in order to remove some edges. Now the
1983  rendering is the same than for OpenGL driver.
1984   This was requested for long by ALICE, and had been
1985  requested for ATLAS by Gaston Parrour recently.
1986
19877th June 2000  John Allison
1988- /vis/viewer/update preferred, synonym /vis/viewer/show deprecated.
1989
19907th June 2000  Makoto Asai
1991- Fix the flip view of RayTracer.
1992
19932nd June May 2000  John Allison
1994- Forced /control/verbose 2 for compound commands.
1995
199620th May 2000  John Allison
1997- Bug fix in G4PhysicalVolumeModel for replicas (Guy Barrand).
1998

2251- G4GoSceneHandler.cc/G4GoSceneHandler::EndPrimitives : modify
2252  the logic of setting the OMatrix for Go objects in order

2361              void G4OpenGLXViewer::SetView () {
2362                glXMakeCurrent (dpy, win, cx);
2363                G4OpenGLViewer::SetView (); 
2364              }

2437- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is added to
2438  management/include/MyVisManager.cc.
2439
2440vis-00-03-05  9th November 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2441- VRML 2.0 Visualization driver is commited:
2442 (1) Generatin of VRML 2.0 format files to describe Geant4 simulation.
2443 (2) Interactive displaying of physiccal-volume names and copy numbers
2444 (3) Interactive displaying of hit positions (displayed strings are
2445     costomizable.
2446 (4) Wireframe drawing style of Geant4 visualization is reflected as
2447     transparency = 0.7.  This value is customizable.
2448     If transparency is 1.0, drawing of detector geometry is skipped,
2449     and hits can be picked easily.
2450
24516th November 1998  John Allison
2452- Implemented basic /vis/viewer commands.
2453- Added `const G4String& name' argument to G4VScene and G4VView constructors.
2454
2455vis-00-03-04  30th October 1998  John Allison
2456- Tagged.
2457
245829th October 1998  Guy Barrand
2459- G4OpenGLXView.hh, G4OpenGLXmView.cc, G4OpenGLXmWindowHandlingCallbacks.cc
2460  in order that things compile and compile without warnings on HP/aCC
2461
246214th October 1998  John Allison
2463- Augmented the new /vis/ commands.  Still not complete but they
2464  co-work with the old commands.
2465- Changed char* fName to G4String fName in G4VScene and G4VView.
2466  Consequent changes in G4OpenGLView.  Also OpenInventor?  Etc.
2467
246811th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2469- added (not a very good) version of hidden lines removal code. This code
2470  suffers from depth buffering artefacts. glPolygonOffset is a feature of
2471  OpenGL version 1.1, and can help overcome depth buffer problems. The code
2472  to utilise glPolygonOffset is committed, but commented out, as it doesn't
2473  seem to work with the version of Mesa available on rsplus currently. My
2474  ideal strategy is to enable depth testing, draw the model as lines, enable
2475  filled polygon offsetting (glPolygonOffset(1.0 /*offset scale factor*/,
2476  2/*offset bias*/); glEnable (GL_POLYGON_OFFSET_FILLED);) then draw the
2477  model as filled polygons. The offsetting should just add `2' (in window
2478  coordinates, I think) onto the z value of all vertices relating to filled
2479  polygons, thus dismissing the conflict between almost identical z values
2480  for lines and filled polygon edges.
2481
2482vis-00-03-03 9th October 1998  John Allison
2483- G4VisManager inherits G4VStateDependent.  This is used to draw
2484  end-of-event models.
2485
24864th October 1998 Andy Walkden
2487- Added ability for all G4OpenGLX derived graphics systems to produce
2488  vectored PostScript hardcopy. Facility for `automated screen dump'
2489  (i.e. pixmap output) still kept, as some rasterization features
2490  don't make it into the vectored PostScript output (such as haloing
2491  effects). Facility currently available via G4OpenGLXm by clicking
2492  `Miscellany' then `Create .eps file', to get a popup printing
2493  window.
2494
2495vis-00-03-02a  26th September 1998 
2496- DAWNFILE driver is made platform dependent.
2497  (It is now compilable both at both Unix and NT without necessity
2498   of C macros like WIN32.)
2499
2500vis-00-03-02  25th September 1998

2534- Removed AddRun(Event)DurationModelToCurrentSceneData - no longer used.
2535- Some bug corrections in visualization/OpenGL (Guy Barrand - see
2536  vis blackboard for details).

2541- More new commands - not fully functional yet.
2542
254311th August 1998  Guy Barrand
2544- G4OpenInventor : remove uneccesary includes.
2545
2546vis-00-02-02b  11th August  Satoshi Tanaka
2547- AddPrimitive() for polymarker are implemented in DAWN and VRML drivers.
2548
2549vis-00-02-02a  9th August  John Allison
2550- Small bug fix in G4VisCommandsScene.cc.

2559- OPACS : use new interactor parenting logic.
2560- OpenGL, OpenInventor, G4Ray : clean compilation warnings for OSF1/cxx, HP/aCC.
2561
25627th August  John Allison/Satoshi Tanaka/Guy Barrand.
2563- Added G4<driver>Scene::AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) to keep
2564  compilers happy.
2565
2566vis-00-02-01  6th August  John Allison
2567- Created G4VisManagerRegisterMessengers.cc.
2568- Bug fix in G4VisManager: now follows change of world volume after
2569  /vis~/clear/scene.
2570- OpenInventor: Correct some upper -> lower case mess (Guy Barrand)
2571- G4RayView: syntax bug fixes.
2572
25734th August 1998 Andy Walkden
2574I made some changes to OpenGL code...
2575The changes are (i) to tidy up some redundant hidden line
2576removal function calls, (ii) to put some hidden line removal
2577code in G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive(G4Polyhedron) and
2578(iii) to add an option to generate an encapsulated postscript
2579file of the current view in OpenGLXm. There is now a button
2580in the Miscellany pulldown of the main menubar to bring up
2581a shell in which you can specify a filename, colour or black
2582and white and request the creation of a .eps file. The
2583code is to be found in G4OpenGLXView, and so is not bound
2584to the Xm user. Also it needs fixing for some Mesa
2585implementations, and the HP CDE environment manages to stuff
2586things up when rendering to a pixmap (although CDE makes a
2587mess of most other things as well, so this isn't
2588disastrous).
2589
2590
2591vis-00-01-08  21th July 1998  John Allison
2592- Removed automatic refresh from /vis/camera/reset in G4VisCommandsCamera.cc.
2593
2594vis-00-01-07b  21th July 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2595- Revised G4FRSCENE::SendBoundingBox() so that
2596  zooming polycy of  DAWN drivers becomes consistent with
2597  OpenGL drivers
2598
2599vis-00-01-07  20th July 1998  John Allison
2600- Corrected bug in G4VisManager::IsViewValid to trap drawing commands
2601  before geometry is available.
2602
2603vis-00-01-06  19th July 1998  John Allison
2604- Default culling: culling - on, culling of invisible objects - on.
2605- set/drawing_style does *not* change culling flags.
2606- Minor bug fixes.
2607
2608vis-00-01-05  15th July 1998  John Allison

2635  visualization/modeling/include;
2636- added the /vis~/draw/Ghosts [particle name] command
2637  in the G4VisManMessDraw.cc file;
2638- added
2639  CPPFLAGS += -I$(G4BASE)/geometry/magneticfield/include and

2650
2651vis-00-06-08a  26th June 1998 Satoshi Tanaka
2652- Updated G4VIS_USE.gmk
2653- (1) Macro -DG4VIS_USE_DAWNFILE is made properly set
2654- (2) G4VIS_USE_DAWN_ is renamed to G4VIS_USE_DAWN_OR_DAWNFILE
2655- (3) G4VIS_USE_VRML_ is renamed to G4VIS_USE_VRML_OR_VRMLFILE
2656
2657vis-00-06-08  22nd June 1998  John Allison
2658- Changed G4BASE = ../.. to G4BASE = $(shell (cd ../..; pwd))

2660
2661vis-00-06-07  19th June 1998  John Allison
2662- Defined G4_SOLVE_VIS_TEMPLATES in G4VIS_USE.gmk.  Needs
2663  the head version of GNUmakefile.architecture.
2664- Consequential changes (improvements) to template handling in test19.cc
2665- Some minor improvements in modeling.
2666
2667vis-00-06-06  11th June 1998  John Allison
2668- Fixes to test_utils - see test/History.
2669- Improvements in modeling - see modeling/History.
2670
2671vis-00-06-05  11th June 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2672- In G4VisManMessDraw.cc and G4VisManMessSet.cc , ...
2673  //    G4double unit = G4UIcommand::valueOf (unitString);
2674        G4double unit = G4UnitDefinition::GetValueOf (unitString);
2675
2676vis-00-06-04  10th June 1998  John Allison
2677- Created G4VIS_USE.gmk to replace GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE.
2678- Changed test/GNUmakefile to use G4VIS_USE.gmk.
2679- Separate libraries are now default in GNUmakefile.
2680- Committed an interim version of README.
2681- Moved G4BoundingSphereScene from management to modeling.
2682- First attempt at defining the "scene" as lists of models.
2683- Removed some unnecessary checks in G4VisManMess*.
2684
2685vis-00-06-03  27th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2686- DAWNFILE driver is added. It is to generate g4.prim file
2687  under the current directory.  And make DAWN or DAVID invoke
2688  using the g4.prim file as an input. For details, see the blackboard
2689  document.
2690
269121st May 1998 Andy Walkden
2692- Added hidden line removal code to G4OpenGLView. HLR utilises OpenGL's
2693  stencil buffer, but still the drawn lines are a little fragmented
2694  (an effect seen often when depth buffering is used to resolve pixel
2695  rendering disputes).
2696- HLR requires wireframe rendering, filled polygon rendering and then wireframe
2697  rendering again. Hence, three visits to the kernel help to slow HLR
2698  rendering right down.
2699
2700vis-00-06-02  20th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2701- Added G4VisFeaturesOfDAWNFILE.hh, cc
2702- Revised visualization/GNUmakefile, GNUmakefile.G4VIS_BUILD,
2703  GNUmakefile.G4VIS_USE
2704- These are for DAWNFILE driver in preparation, which enables to
2705  invoke DAVID directly from Geant4.
2706
2707vis-00-06-01a 20th May   1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2708- code refinement of FukuiRenderer driver
2709
2710vis-00-06-01  29th April 1998  John Allison
2711- Introduced non-pure virtual functions
2712  Establish/DecommissionSpecials (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2713  G4VGraphicsScene with implementation of the former in G4VScene.
2714  Modified G4PhysicalVolumeModel to use it; also protected
2715  G4PhysicalVolumeModel against non-implementation of
2716  Establish/DecommissionSpecials.
2717- Template instantiations in G4RayView made exclusive to GNU_GCC
2718- Some minor changes under test - see test/History.
2719
272027th April 1998 Andy Walkden
2721- altered OpenGLView's structure a little. Now, G4OpenGLXmView is a
2722  type of (inherits from) G4OpenGLXView.
2723- made code for haloing effects common to all OpenGL views.
2724- changed XUnmapWindow in G4OpenGLXView::~G4OpenGLXView to XDestroyWindow
2725  (idea of Guy's)
2726
272727th April 1998 Guy Barrand
2728- vis/OPACS : remove Begin/EndModeling in G4GoScene.
2729
2730vis-00-05-06  23rd April 1998  John Allison
2731- Changed test19.mac to test19.g4m and consequent change in test19.cc.
2732- Fixed order of linking vis-a-vis -lG4track and -lG4tracking (GB).
2733- Fixed inadvertent bug in test_utils/src/MyPhysicsList.cc.
2734- Bug fix in G4OpenGLXmConvenienceRoutines.cc (GB).
2735
2736vis-00-05-05  21st April 1998  John Allison
2737- Added run-time command line argument: test19 [<session-type>] [<verbosity>]
2738- Removed #if GNU_GCC from template instantiation requests in test19.cc.
2739- Added fDefaultTextVisAttributes to G4ViewParameters.
2740- Added G4VScene::GetTextColour (changed G4FukuiRendererScene, G4GoScene and
2741  G4OpenInventorScene.
2742- Changed default view parameters: culling on and invisible object culling on.
2743- Tidied CreateScene/View.
2744- Continued BaBar development.
2745
274615th April 1998  John Allison
2747- Added test/EucIntfce/, test/Bogus/ and test/babar_utils/ for BaBar test code.
2748  Also a new main() in BaBarCallListTest.cc.  Also a data file call_list.dat.
2749  See babar_utils/README.
2750- Camera commands, except spin and orbit, no longer initiate draw.
2751- Text is blue for time being (visible on black or white background.)
2752
275315th April 1998 : Guy Barrand
2754- From discussion with John and Simone G4VToolkit
2755  has been renamed to G4VInteractorManager.
2756
2757vis-00-05-04a  11th April 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2758- Code improvements in DAWN driver
2759- (1) View parameters are sent to DAWN only at drawing times.
2760- (2) Way of getting marker size are made simpler by using
2761-     G4VScene::GetMarkerRadius ()  etc.
2762
2763vis-00-05-04  8th April 1998  John Allison
2764- Small bug fix - then tag for Easter.
2765
2766HEAD  6th April 1998  John Allison
2767- Added error printing to G4OpenGLScene::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text).
2768- Added /vis~/draw/text.
2769- Added units to /vis~/draw/axes.
2770- Began the job of restructuring vis commands; so there is a new class
2771  G4VisCommandsCameraMessengers for starters!
2772
2773HEAD  4th April 1998  John Allison
2774- Removed automatic drawing after /vis~/set commands.  Now an explicit
2775  redraw is necessary, but it allows you to change parameters during
2776  building a view.  For example to superimpose projected hits on a
2777  section:
2778    /vis~/clear/view
2779    /vis~/set/section_plane on 0 0 20 cm 0 0 1
2780    /vis~/draw/current
2781    /vis~/set/section_plane off
2782    /run/beamOn
2783- Fixed small bug in OpenGL for section drawing.
2784- Made some small improvements in G4ViewParameters.
2785
2786vis-00-05-03  4th April 1998  John Allison
2787- Re-engineered maintenance of current depth, etc.  Needed new method
2788  G4VGraphicsScene::BeginModeling (G4PhysicalVolumeModel&) in
2789  graphics_reps.  The result is much cleaner model and modeling
2790  parameters classes.  Also, the current depth, physical volume and
2791  logical volume are immediately available as protected pointers in
2792  G4VScene.
2793- Required G4VScene::Begin/EndModeling to be invoked from subclass.
2794- Introduced G4NullModel to hold modeling parameters.  This avoids
2795  having to create a G4VModel for each graphics primitive.
2796
2797HEAD  3rd April 1998  John Allison
2798- Added GetMarkerDiameter/Radius to G4VScene.
2799- Bug fix in G4VScene::GetMarkerSize.
2800- Removed GetCurrentPhysicalVolume from G4PhysicalVolumeModel - now in
2801  G4ModelingParameters (but might move again soon!).
2802- test/GNUmakefile now uses "$(MAKE) separate" for vis libraries.
2803- test19 recognises argument "1" as a verbose flag value.
2804
2805HEAD April 2, 98 G.Barrand
2806- Modifications for Win32/NT.
2807- G4VIS_BUILD_[OIX, OIWIN32]_DRIVER, G4VIS_USE_[OIX, OIWIN32]
2808
2809vis-00-05-02  26th March 1998  John Allison
2810- Added GetMarkerSize to G4VScene.
2811- Made ~G4VisManager virtual.
2812- Added current logical volume and current physical volume to working
2813  space in modeling parameters.  So it is no longer necessary to cast
2814  to G4PhysicalVolumeModel; all such casts removed.
2815- Moved nested classes out of G4RayView.
2816
2817HEAD March 24, 98 G.Cosmo
2818- Modified G4VisManMessExpert.cc to correctly use random numbers
2819  by calling directly G4UniformRand().
2820
2821HEAD March 24, 98 G.Barrand
2822- GNUmakefile : MAKESHLIB changed in G4MAKESHLIB
2823
2824vis-00-05-01a  24 March 1998  Satoshi Tanaka
2825- Geometry tree can be obtained by, e.g.,
2826  % grep PVName g4.prim > g4.tree
2827
2828vis-00-05-01  23rd March 1998  John Allison
2829- Made RegisterGraphicsSystems pure virtual.
2830- Added verbose level control to printing at initialization.
2831- Fixed (hopefully) bug in scene deletion.
2832- Made AddPrimitive (const G4Text/Circle/Square) pure virtual.
2833  (Had to add dummy void G4VRML1SCENE::AddPrimitive (const G4Text&).)

2933  It coworks (I hope - it's difficult to be 100% sure about
2934  this since I have a few changes for other categories in
2935  the pipeline - see previous email) with:

2951  to-be-adopted G4VIS_... variables - see visualization/test/README.
2952- Consequent changes to other visualization GNUmakefiles.
2953- New way of instantiating graphics systems:
2954  Set the appropriate environment variables and include and
2955  compile G4VisRegisterGraphicsSystems.icc in your main():
2956    ...
2957    #include G4VisRegisterGraphicsSystems.icc
2958    ...
2959    main() {
2960      ...
2961- Added G4VisFeaturesOfXXX files which simple return a G4String.
2962 (Guy, Jeff, would you like to join this scheme?)
