Summary:	G4cout discards some output after G4cout.width() or setw()

Description V.Hejny 2001-01-23 02:12:31 CET

When moving from G4 2.0 to 3.0 I observed in my code that some output
was no longer on screen. This was all output done after a G4cout.width()
call. (Surprinsingly, the output stops at the second call).

Now I recompiled G4 with G4VERBOSE to find a reason for a endless loop
in tracking. Again, now in the verbose tracking output, only the step
number and the first position coordinate is printed. The rest (including)
eond-of-line is omitted.

P.S.: Maybe you add an entry for Geant4 3.0 in the form for problem reporting.

Could you please provide us with a snippet of code where this problem
can easily be reproduced ?  Are you using any particular UI session ?
Thanks.

As reported below from the user who opened this report, the problem
doesn't look related to G4 kernel code. It is therefore closed.
