Description Ivana.Hrivnacova 2001-02-13 03:11:39 CET
When a replica of G4Para solid is defined
the program exits with:
### Run 0 start.
G4SmartVoxelHeader::BuildReplicaVoxels probable error in replicated
geometry, logical volume ZEM_LV
*** G4Exception: Aborting execution ***

The picture of replicated geometry (with Dawn) looks ok.
When G4Para is replaced with G4Box everything works ok.
Tested within N03 example with redefined ExN03DetectorConstruction

Comment 1 Gabriele Cosmo 2001-02-15 08:07:59 CET
The optimiser is correctly reporting an error in the replicated geometry.
It is not allowed to replicate a G4Para in the kXaxis with different
alpha angle. Replicating a volume along a cartesian axis means "slicing"
it with slices -perpendicular- to that axis.
The visualised geometry is not correct.
