Description Florence.Ranjard 2001-12-03 01:26:13 CET 
Dear All,

1:  In last couple of weeks,  when I use G4 visualization with OPENGLSXm
and click the button to 'create an .eps file'  in the 'screen dump mode',
it creates an eps file with a blank picture.
Until a few weeks ago, this did work properly and I did create
proper eps files.

2: When I click to 'create an eps file' in the 'postscript mode'
   it crashes with a core dump.

3: In the last few  months, when I try to draw a wireframe using
  OPENGLSXm, it only draws part of the wireframe. If I perform
the sequence 'remove hidden line', 'wireframe'  it draws the whole
wireframe.
But any successive operations like rotation, simply removes part of the
wireframe.

 I am using this from LHCb, which links with the standard versions
of the libraries supplied by G4 on afs at cern with the gcc2.95 compiler.

 Any suggestions ?

thanks and regards,
Sajan Easo

1. I see this too.  I will investigate, but I can't give it high priority.
2. It works fine for me.  I am using the candidate tag for Geant4 4.0.
3. I do not see this on my test geometry.
Let me know if 2 and 3 persist with Geant4 4.0.

Dear Sajan,

Is this still a problem in Geant4 4.0?

John.

No resources at the moment.  Will keep in touch with Sajan and we will try
to solve it together.
