Hi Joao, I believe that you are busy with Episode 3, so I'll try to keep this email short. It just contains updates on some things that I've been working on and have not committed yet. 1) I've reworked (just slightly ;) ) the QIrrWidget again and we no longer have the problem with OpenGL and the main menu on Linux. Another advantage is that there is a "working" MacOSX port of AMELIA. By working I mean that my cube example works, but MacOSX locks up most of the time when I start AMELIA (although I had few successful runs.). I should be able to commit the basic code soon (just need to clean it up). 2) We've had an undergraduate physics party, where we showed some demos, including AMELIA. I wrote a short documentation outlining some basic features of AMELIA. You might be interested in temporary using it as the "Getting Started Guide". It is here: http://hep.phys.sfu.ca/~kka34/amelia-doc/amelia.html 3) For the above party, I had to make a few modifications and you might be interested in having some of them in the official version. Let me know if I should commit any of them. Here they are: - I've added a fourth tab to the tabbar that says "Hints". It basically listed signatures of common events as a quick reference. I think something like this (but more general) would be quite useful. - AXMLEvent now reads the "run number" and "event number" info from the JiveXML files and displays them in the "Event Info" graphics view thing. - Since we had a touch screen, I've added zoom in and zoom out buttons to control the sphere camera. Same thing for enabling selection of multiple tracks. You can see these buttons in the screenshots used in the documentation mentioned above. 4) I'm going to start to play around with displaying the track hits and LAr calorimeters in the way we talked about while I was at Berkeley. So if you have any hints (ei: place to find good documentation on the JiveXML format?) or you think I should wait until you are less busy, just let me know. -- Cheers, Karol Krizka |
