250
25125th May 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-03-03)
252- G4OpenGLSceneHandler and G4OpenGLXViewerMessenger:
253  Fixed gcc-4.1.2 compiler warnings.

264  o Correct path /vis/ogl/set/printMode.
265  o Add SetView to pixmap screen dump ("/vis/ogl/set/printMode pixmap"
266    and "/vis/ogl/printEPS").
267
2688th May 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-06)
269- Moved vectored PostScript printing to G4OpenGLViewer.
270- /vis/ogl/printEPS should work for all viewers, including Win32.
271- Introduced /vis/ogl/set/printMode vectored|pixmap, currently only
272  effective on X windows (and still somewhat buggy).
273
2744th April 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-05 - needs visman-V08-02-04)
275- Implemented picking for OGLSX ( as well as OGLIX).  Hopefully works
276  for OGL*Win32.  Still doesn't work for OGL*Xm.
277
2783rd April 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-04 - needs visman-V08-02-03)
279- G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler:
280  o Re-organised display lists on a per-primitive basis, i.e., one
281    display list per primitive.  (This is so that, except for text,
282    the colour - or, rather, intensity - can be brought out of the
283    display list into the TOList (Transient Object List) and
284    controlled for the Display-by-Time feature.  Previously, if more
285    than one primitive were drawn between BeginPrimitives and
286    EndPrimitives, it would finish up all in one display list, colour
287    commands included. Rationalises and fixes a rare bug in the
288    Display-by-Time feature - see August 2006.)
289  o Added AddPrimitive(const G4Polymarker&) so that it is treated as
290    one primoitive to fit with the above re-organisation.
291- Implemented picking for OGLIX.
292
29325th March 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-03)
294- Fix compiler warnings.
295
2968th February 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-02)
297- Fixed Windows problem with DBL_MAX.  (Introduced G4OPENGL_DBL_MAX.)
298- G4OpenGLXViewer.cc: Small bug fix in print().  (Context was switched
299  .but not switched back.  Not serious, because context was always set
300  before normal drawing.)
301
3029th January 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-01)
303- Implemented bitmap markers for MarkerSizeType == screen.  (The old
304  polygon implementation remains for MarkerSizeType == world.)
305- Added G4OpenGLBitMapStore to assist the above.
306- G4OpenGLXViewer::CreateGLXContext:
307  o Bug fix: Added missing break in colormap lookup routine.
308
3095th January 2007  John Allison  (opengl-V08-02-00)
310- G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc:
311  o Followed change of signature of GetLineWidth in visman-V08-02-00.
312  o Minor efficiency improvements.
313
31421st November 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-09)
315- Fixed compiler warnings.
316
3171st November 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-08)
318- Replace /vis/oglx/set/printEPS by /vis/oglx/printEPS.  The new command
319  actually initiates a print, rather than set a flag for printing.
320
32124th October 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-07)
322- G4OpenGLStoredViewer.cc: Calculate light front horizon properly.
323- G4OpenGLViewerMessenger.cc: Make refresh depend on auto-refresh.
324
32519th September 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-06)
326- Added time origin for light front.
327- Added /vis/ogl/set/transparency.
328- G4OpenGLStoredViewer.cc: Bug fix in time range acceptance.
329
3304th September 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-05)
331- Implement cutaways.
332- Immediate mode: G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc: Flush all
333  primitives (see detector being drawn).
334- /vis/oglx/set/printEPS: change parameter default to true.
335
33630th August 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-04)
337- G4OpenGLSceneHandler:
338  o Implemented line width.
339  o Switched off back face culling when clipping so that the inside of
340    volumes can be seen.
341  o Added CreateSection/CutawayPolyhedron to exploit generic
342    sectioning (DCUT) and cutaways.  Currently not activated due to
343    instabilities in BooleanProcessor.  Local sectioning still active
344    but broken (at least on Mac) due to apparent change in effect of
345    clipping planes (polyhedron edges not reconstructed).
346  o Rationalised calculation of marker size.
347- G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler:
348  o Fixed bug due to recursive calls of AddPrimitive (polymarkers -> markers).
349  o Pick up time range from G4VisAttributes.
350- G4OpenGLViewer(Messenger):
351  o Added position and colour to /vis/ogl/set/displayHeadTime.
352  o Added /vis/ogl/set/displayLightFront.
353- G4OpenGLStoredViewer.cc:
354  o Rationalised CompareForKernelVisit.  (Local sectioning still active.)
355  o Added position and colour to DisplayHeadTime.
356  o Added DisplayLightFront.
357 
35816th August 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-03)
359- Corrected Solaris compilation error.
360- Added /vis/ogl/set/fade and displayHeadTime.
361
36214th August 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-02)
363- Needs visman-V08-01-02.
364- G4OpenGLStored: Implemented display-by-time.  Only available in
365  stored mode at present.  Only implemented for circle, square,
366  polyline and polymarker at present, enough for currently available
367  trajectory models.  Time is communicated via G4AttValues.
368- Added G4OpenGLViewerMessenger.
369- Added /vis/ogl/set/startTime and endTime of displayed objects.
370- All factories: Instantiated G4OpenGLViewerMessenger.
371- G4OpenGLViewer: Added fStart/EndTime.
372- G4OpenGLXViewer.cc: Graceful recovery from unexpected tokens in
373  spewPrimitiveEPS and spewSortedFeedback.
374
37517th July  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-01)
376- Added /vis/oglx/set/printEPS (prints eps file on every update).
377
3783rd July 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-01-00)
379- Elimination of redundant variable doublebuffer and implementation of
380  FinishView in all viewers.
381
38230th May 2006  Joseph Perl  (opengl-V08-00-08)
383- G4OpenGLImmediateWin32Viewer: Removed tests on doublebuffer since that
384  variable seems to have random behavior and should be assumed false for
385  this viewer.
386
38729th May 2006  Joseph Perl  (opengl-V08-00-07)
388- G4OpenGLWin32Viewer, G4OpenGLImmediateWin32Viewer, G4OpenGLStoredWin32Viewer:
389  Removed common FinishView and instead made separate FinishView for the two different
390  versions of this viewer since each wants a different buffer swapping behaviour.
391
39212th May 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-06)
393- G4OpenGLWin32Viewer: Fixed buffer swapping behaviour.
394
39528th April 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-05 - needs visman-V08-00-14)
396- G4OpenGLStoredX/Xm/Win32Viewer.cc: Fixed buffer swapping problem when
397  recomputing transients.
398
39924th April 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-04)
400- Fixed compilation problem on Windows.
401
40219th April 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-03)
403- G4OpenGLSceneHandler, G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler and
404  G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler:
405  o Implemented Begin/EndPrimitives2D (needs visman-V08-00-12 and
406    greps-V08-00-02).
407  o Migrated to direct access to G4PhysicalVolumeModel.
408- G4OpenGLStoredX/Xm/Win32Viewer.cc: bug fix for conditional drawing
409  of display lists in DrawView.
410
41114th March 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-02)
412- Refined display list building and re-drawing algorithm.
413  o G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler::EndModeling: Changed to GL_COMPILE_AND_EXECUTE.
414  o Avoided unnecessary re-execution in DrawView (X, Xm and Win32).
415- G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler::RequestPrimitives: Refined display list
416  re-use algorithm.  In test19 with global culling off, numbers of
417  display lists used are:
418  o 191  No re-use:
419  o  73  Before this change: re-use except replicas (includes parameterised).
420  o  33  After this change: re-use except parameterised and replicas in radius.
421
42226th January 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-01)
423- Coworks with visman-V08-00-04 (removed fModified).

427  possible future implementation of 2D drawing.
428- G4OpenGLXViewer.cc: Improved exception printing.
429
43011th January 2006  John Allison  (opengl-V08-00-00)
431- Improved efficiency: all DrawView's:
432  o Don't call ClearView.
433  o Set flag so SetView will not be called in ProcessView.
434  o Leave background colour to ClearView.
435- Used dynamic_cast<G4OpenGLViewer*>, no need for G4OpenGLViewerDataStore.
436- G4OpenGLXmViewerMessenger: Made a smart singleton; interrogates vis manager
437  for current viewer.

440- Protected G4OpenGLXmViewerMessenger with #ifdef G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLXM_DRIVER.
441
44222nd November 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-08)
443- Added G4OpenGLXmViewerMessenger.
444- Corrected text position.
445- Made depth test for polyhedron GL_LEQUAL (slightly dominant).
446
44717th November 2005  Gabriele Cosmo
448- Fixed settings of background style for WIN32 viewers.
449
45013th November 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-07)
451- Implemented X-Window-style geometry hints in G4OpenGLXViewer.
452
45313th October 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-06)
454- Allowed any colour background.
455- Implemented non-uniform scaling.
456- Migration to <sstream>.
457
45829th September 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-05)
459- Added G4OpenGLViewerDataStore to facilitate access of viewer data by
460  scene handler.
461- Re-implemented transparency button in OpenGLXm.
462
46313th September 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-04 - needs visman-V07-01-02)
464- Implemented white background for all OGL viewers.
465- G4OpenGLSceneHandler.cc:
466  o Fixed hidden line removal (bug introduced in opengl-V07-01-02).
467  o Fixed treatment of triangular polygons for drawing of auxiliary/soft lines.
468  o Corrected GetTextColour(text).
469  o Corrected GetColour(polyhedron).
470
4715th September 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-03)
472- Bug fix: stored transparent objects were being lost.
473
4742nd September 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-02 - needs visman-V07-01-01)
475- Bug fix: edgeflags problem introduced with smooth shading in
476  opengl-V07-01-00.
477- Implementation of a "better algorithm" for the rendering of
478  transparent polyhedron objects.  It renders all opaque objects
479  first, then renders the transparent objects with the depth buffer in
480  read-only mode (see OpenGL Programming Guide).  It uses the new
481  facility in G4VSceneHandler::ProcessScene for an optional second pass
482  of the run-duration models in the scene.  Note this algorithm is
483  still only an approximation.  It will still give the wrong blended
484  colour if two transparent objects are rendered front first.  For
485  nested transparent objects, this is unfortunate, because
486  G4PhysicalVolumeModel traverses Geant4's mother-daughter hierarchy
487  in such a way that mothers come first.  Also, there is no guaranteed
488  relationship between the order of rendering and the depth of two
489  transparent objects if they are at the same level or in different
490  branches of the hierarchy.  Still, the only error will be an
491  incorrect colour - the objects will still give the appearance of
492  transparency, so it's a pretty good algorithm.  (An even better
493  algorithm would be to attempt to render the facets in depth order,
494  deepest first.  But how do you calculate the depth - centre of area,
495  deepest corner?  One can still imagine pathalogical cases that would
496  sometimes give the wrong colour.  Also, for stored mode, the order
497  is fixed in a display list so when the user rotates the view, one
498  would lose the depth ordering.  I think we have to accept that
499  blending in OpenGL is only ever an approximation.  For accurate
500  blending, use RayTracer.)
501
50228th August 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-01)
503- Half-way implementation of rendering of transparent polyhedron
504  objects.  In this implementation, no account is taken of the order
505  of rendering.  Transparent objects are rendered with depth testing
506  off so that objects behind can still be seen.  But this means that
507  opaque objects in front do not obscure them - and they jolly well
508  should!  A better algorithm is to render all opaque objects first,
509  then render the transparent objects with the depth buffer in
510  read-only mode (see OpenGL Programming Guide).  This is going to
511  take a little more thought - see opengl-V07-01-02.
512
51320th July 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-01-00)
514- Introduced smooth shading, taking advantage of hitherto un-noticed
515  feature of HepPolyhedron::GetNextFacet that calculates the normals
516  at each vertex so that curved surfaces are rendered more
517  realistically (Gouraud shading).
518- G4OpenGLImmediateSceneHandler.cc: Removed unnecessary #include's.
519- G4OpenGLXmViewer.cc: Fixed to use window size hints.  This changes
520  the default window size.  It used to be 400x400, hardcoded in
521  G4OpenGLXmViewer.cc, but now it picks up the
522  G4ViewParameters::GetWindowSizeHintX/Y, which defaults to 600x600.
523  The user may change it on the command line, e.g:
524    /vis/open OGLSXm 500
525  or
526    /vis/viewer/create ! ! 500
527
52830th May 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-00-03)
529- Fixed compilation problem in OpenGL on SUN.  (Replaced multimap by
530  map of vectors in G4OpenGLFontBaseStore.)
531
5324th May 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-00-02)
533- Restored sequence Set/Clear/DrawView in ClearTransientStore.  (It
534  was taken out to prevent recursive calling, but that seems to be OK,
535  and it is needed to implement refresh at end of event/run.)
536
53722nd April 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-00-01)
538- Rationalised work of opengl-V07-00-00.  Functionality unchanged.
539  o G4OpenGLViewer.hh: Created virtual void CreateFontLists(){}.
540  o In all concrete viewers, added call to CreateFontLists().
541  o Moved font code for X to G4OpenGLXViewer::CreateFontLists().
542  o There is no longer a need to implement in the XmViewer, since it
543    now inherits.  Thus the font code now only appears once for X.
544  o Awaiting implementation for WIN32.
545
54617th April 2005  John Allison  (opengl-V07-00-00)
547- Based on vis-V07-00-13.
548- Implemented text for X-Windows viewers.  Uses glXUseXFont, which
549  creates display lists for nominated fonts.  Simple-minded scheme in
550  which each viewer creates its own font display lists for a variety
551  of sizes, which are accessed by the scene handler through a new
552  class, G4OpenGLFontBaseStore.  Affected methods:
553    G4OpenGLXViewer::CreateMainWindow()
554    G4OpenGLXmViewer::CreateMainWindow()
555    G4OpenGLSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text)
556
55718th November 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-07)
558- Removed redundant fLastVP from G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.
559
56015th November 2004  Guy Barrand
561- G4OpenGLWin32Viewer::ShowView : glFlush was not sufficient
562  to see trajectories (for example with N03). Correct so that
563  ShowView do a FinishView that does : glFlush, wglSwapBuffer
564  and empty the Windows message queue.
565
56622nd September 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-06)
567- doxygen output to tmp area.
568- Trap non-regular polyhedrons.
569
57013th September 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (opengl-V06-02-05)
571- G4OpenGLTransform3D.cc: simplified implementation for GetMatrix()
572  to allow for porting on CLHEP-1.9.X series.
573
57423rd July 2004  John Allison
575- Draws auxiliary edges if required.
576- Added auxiliary edge button.
577
57816th July 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-04)
579- Refinements to hidden line, hidden surface removal.
580
58114th July 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-03)
582- Removed superfluous #include "G4VisManager.hh" from G4OpenGLXmViewer.cc.
583
58413th July 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-02)
585- Hidden line *and* hidden surface removal now works.
586
5879th July 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-01)
588- Fixed long-standing problem with hidden line removal.
589- Improved messages on failure to get visual.
590- Added GLX_STENCIL_SIZE explicit request to visual attributes - most
591  systems provided by default anyway, so no effect.
592
5931st July 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-02-00)
594- Rationalised G4OpenGLSceneHandler ready for hidden line removal.
595- Bug fix in G4OpenGLXmPanningCallbacks.cc for dolly control.
596
59718th June 2004  Gunter Folger (geant4-06-02)
5989th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-03)
5997th June 2004  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V06-01-02)
600- GNUmakefile and disclaimer changes - see visualization/History.
601
6029th April 2004  John Allison  (vis-V06-01-01 + interfaces-V06-01-00)
603- Tagged OpenGL as below.  Joint with interfaces-V06-01-00.
604
6057th April 2004  Guy Barrand
606- visualization/OpenGL/* : use the G4OpenGL.hh file.
607- Added : visualization/OpenGL/include/G4OpenGL.hh to encapsulate
608  the include of gl/gl.h and gl/glu.h that may be platform dependant.
609  It permits to rm some #ifdef WIN32 spread in the code. It opens also
610  the way to the usage of the Apple OpenGL on a Mac.
611
61217th February 2004  John Allison  (opengl-V06-00-00)
613- Fixed bug #581: wrong order of statements in
614  G4OpenGLXViewer::~G4OpenGLXViewer (see bug report).
615
6164th October 2003  Gabriele Cosmo  (vis-V05-02-01)
617- GNUmakefile:
618  o replaced "digits+hits" with "digits_hits".
619- Coworks with "geometry-V05-02-00" and "digits_hits-V05-02-00".
620
62122nd September 2003  John Allison  (vis-V05-02-00, greps-V05-02-00)
622- Cosmetic change to regularise names:
623  o changed _Feedback3Dcolo to G4OpenGLXViewerFeedback3Dcolor.
624  o changed _DepthIndex to G4OpenGLXViewerDepthIndex.
625
62623rd June 2003  Guy Barrand  (opengl-V05-01-02)
627- Commit a first implementation of G4OpenGLWin32Viewer.
628
62910th June 2003  Gabriele Cosmo  (opengl-V05-01-01)
630- More fixes for warnings in viewers classes.
631- Added inclusion of <windows.h> for WIN32 platforms when GL headers
632  are included.
633
63405th June 2003  Gabriele Cosmo  (opengl-V05-01-00)
635- Fixes for porting compilation on WIN32:
636  o G4OpenGLWin32Viewer[.hh.cc]: removed inclusion of <GL/glx.h>.
637  o G4OpenGLViewer.cc: replaced local variables near/far with pnear/pfar
638    since declared 'obsolete' in WIN32 platforms.
639
64027th November 2002  John Allison  (vis-V04-01-08)
641- Improved algorithm of CompareForKernelVisit.
642
64311th November 2002  John Allison  (opengl-V04-01-02)
644- Corrected inclusion of G4OpenGLXViewer #ifdef X_DRIVER.
645- Added G4OpenGLSceneHandler::AddThis for trajectories and hits - simply
646  call default but there as a marker and encourager.
647- Added tracking and digits+hits/hits to GNUmakefile.
648
64916th October 2002  John Allison  (opengl-V04-01-01)
650- Fix for WIN32.  Now compiles but viewer not implemented.
651
65224th June 2002  John Allison  (opengl-V04-01-00)
653- Further cosmetic changes in G4OpenGLXViewer.cc for DEC compiler.
654
65510th June 2002  John Allison  (opengl-V04-00-03)
656- Cosmetic changes for SUN-CC in G4OpenGLXmConvenienceRoutines.cc.
657
6586th June 2002  John Allison  (opengl-V04-00-02)
659- Cosmetic changes for GNU compiler in G4OpenGLXViewer.cc.
660
66123rd February 2002  John Allison  (opengl-V04-00-01)
662- Changes to encourage compilation on Windows in preparation for
663  implementation of G4OpenGLWin32Viewer.  Removed spurious includes of
664  glx.h, unistd.h and assert.h.
665
66624th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-13)
667- Limited the printing of warnings in
668  G4OpenGLSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Text& text).
669
67014th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-11)
671- Improved KernelVisitDecision.
672- Fixed a few small bugs in multiple "stored" viewers, but see next item.
673- There's an outstanding bug in OpenGL Stored.  If there is more than
674  one viewer controlled by a scene handler, after a ClearStore on the
675  scene handler, e.g., with /vis/scene/notifyHandlers, the first
676  viewer to get refreshed should trigger the display list rebuild, but
677  the second need not.  However, when the second viewer's turn comes,
678  the display lists are there, and are called, e.g.,
679  G4OpenGLStoredXViewer::DrawView calls
680  G4OpenGLStoredViewer::DrawDisplayLists that calls glCallList, but
681  nothing appears on the screen.  To overcome this there is some
682  temporary code in G4VViewer::NeedKernelVisit which marks *all*
683  viewers to force a rebuild.  To see the symptoms, comment out that
684  temporary code and issue these commands:
685    /vis/verbose c
686    /control/verbose 2
687    /vis/scene/create
688    /vis/scene/add/volume
689    /vis/sceneHandler/create OGLSX
690    /vis/viewer/create ! ! 1
691    /run/beamOn
692    /vis/viewer/create ! ! 1
693    /vis/viewer/select viewer-0
694    /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi 20 20
695    /vis/viewer/select viewer-1
696    /vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi 40 40
697    /vis/viewer/set/style surface
698    /vis/viewer/refresh
699    /vis/viewer/select viewer-0
700    /vis/viewer/refresh
701    /vis/viewer/select viewer-1
702    /vis/viewer/set/style wireframe
703    /vis/scene/notifyHandlers
704  You may have to do this too:
705    /vis/viewer/select viewer-0
706    /vis/scene/notifyHandlers
707  One of the viewers is empty.  Curious!!
708
7099th August 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-10-00)
710- Implemented G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler::ClearTransientStore()
711- Removed G4OpenGLSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) (it only
712  invoked G4VSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Polymarker&) which is
713  picked up by inheritance anyway.
714- Removed lots of unnecessary header files from G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler.cc.
715- Corrected order of calling base class functions in
716  G4OpenGLStoredSceneHandler::Begin/EndModeling.
717
71824th July 2001  John Allison  (vis-V03-02-06)
719- G4OpenGLSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Text&) handles transformation.
720
72114th July 2001  John Allison (opengl-V03-02-00)
722- Fixed crash in optimised mode: added Initialise() to viewers so
723  that windows are opened after viewers are fully constructed.
724
7252nd April 2001  John Allison (opengl-V03-00-01 wrt vis-V03-00-09)
726- Tidied G4OpenGLXmViewer callback code.  Removed superfluous header files.
727
7287th March 2001  John Allison
729- Changed char* to const char* in many places and that gave problems in
730  calls to Xt and Xm.  Hope all's OK.  Differences:
731    cvs diff -r vis-V03-00-06 vis-V03-00-07
732
73325th January 2001  John Allison  (opengl-V03-00-00)
734- Implemented running re-calculation of up-vector in the case of "object
735  rotation" (lights move with camera) to prevent "flipping" of view when
736  camera passes through up-vector.  Note that the default is "camera
737  rotation" (lights do not move with camera, i.e., remain fixed relative
738  to object) so the default is that this "flipping" can happen.  To set
739  "object rotation" (lights move with camera) use
740  /vis/lights/move_with_camera true (soon to be
741  /vis/viewer/set/lights move-with-camera) or click "Object" radio button
742  on Rotation Panel in OpenGLXm mode.
743- Changed some objects to references for efficiency.  E.g.:
744  const G4Vector3D& vp = pView->fVP.GetViewpointDirection ().unit ();
745
74622nd May 2000  John Allison  (opengl-V01-01-00)
747- Fixed slow response of 2nd window of OpenGLXm.  Worked around Mesa bug
748  by sharing static visuals in G4OpenGLXViewer (Guy Barrand):
749    static XVisualInfo* vi_single_buffer;
750    static XVisualInfo* vi_double_buffer;
751- Removed ChooseVisual from G4OpenGLXmViewer.cc - done in base class
752  G4OpenGLXViewer.
753- Protected double deletion of window in destructors of G4OpenGLXmViewer
754  and G4OpenGLXViewer (Guy Barrand).
755- Changed requested bits per colour to r,g,b = 1,1,1 in G4OpenGLViewer.cc.
756- Corrected order of CreateMainWindow() and InitializeGLView() in X*Viewer
757  constructors.
Note: See TracBrowser for help on using the repository browser.
