[itom-discussions] MacroSim installation on Itom 4.0

[Nicolás S. M. <ns...@np...>]

Hello:

First, I would like to thank you all for the great software you are
developing. I recently discovered Itom and I'm amazed by its functionality,
which fits perfectly with our metrology tasks in the production of
composite mirrors that we are developing at NPF (with a veery low budget,
so commercial software is out of our reach for the moment).

Now, regarding the subject of this mail, I've tried to install MacroSim
(unsuccessfully), as an Itom plugin following the instructions from the wiki
<https://bitbucket.org/itom/macrosim/wiki/Home> (i.e. installing cuda,
downloading the .zip file and extracting the folders and .dll's in the Itom
plugins and lib folders accordingly).

After adding the .py to the startup and restarting itom, MacroSim doesn't
appear in the plugin tree as expected. I've tried the 1.04 and 1.1.0
versions of MacroSim with no success. My Itom version is 4.0 and I'm using
the latest Cuda toolkit on Windows 10.

I've haven't tried with a previous version of Itom/Windows/Cuda, first I
wanted to ask if there is something wrong with my current installation
(sorry if it is obvious! I'm very new to Itom).

Any suggestions? I'm looking for a simple/fast installation if possible,
but would be glad to try more involved approaches if needed.

Thank you in advance for your help. Best regards!
