Andreas Winter posted a comment on ticket #30
Dear users; Yes, compiling or running QtGrace v0.2.7 on Mac OS X with an Apple-Silicon-Processor is problematic. I had to include some changes to work. Please go to https://sourceforge.net/p/qtgrace/discussion/requested_features/thread/3f3ba2c2/?limit=25#abb1 and download xaa and xab. Then open a command-line "Terminal" and go to the directory xaa and xyb are. Then type cat xaa xab > QtGrace_v027a_Qt6_universal.zip This should generate a zip-file. Unpack it and you should get a QtGrace-executable...

OK, thanks. I copied that to .Xdefaults and added a soft link to .Xresources, but it did not increase the size of the buttons and menu. I tried resetX and restarting the computer, but that did not work either. How can I tell if I am using an X11 based GUI?
-
If you are using X11 based gui (it may work with Wayland too) you can try putting resouces into your .Xresources (notice the . in front of the time, you may also need a link to .Xdefaults, they are the same): XMgracegeometry: 865x710 XMgracefontList: -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--14------- XMgracetabFontList: -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--14------- XMgracebackground: gray XMgraceXmPushButtonbackground: skyblue XMgraceXmArrowButtonbackground: SGIVeryDarkGray XMgraceXmBulletinBoardPushButtonbackground:...

Thanks for the reply, Andreas. As I said, I am not a software engineer per se, and I don't know much about windowing systems. I understand that Motif is old and unsupported, but xmgrace still runs on my newer Ubuntu Linux machine. I guess I should try QtGrace, but I will need detailed instructions. I assume those can be found in the download. Let me explain how I am using xmgrace. I started many years ago using it to generate .agr plot files. I then essentially reverse-engineered those files to generate...

Dear Russ Paielli; I am the developer of QtGrace. I do not know much about the current status of xmgrace, but my impression is that there is no active development and there has not been one since 20 years or so. xmgrace uses the motif-library for the dialogs. The motif-library is also very (!) old and is not supported by current operating systems. The usual alternative is lesstif, but in my experience the support is getting worse. Therefore probably the problems concerning the buttons and menus....
-
Sorry if this post is a bit off-topic, but I am just trying to get a better idea of the status of xmgrace. The GRACE website seems to be mothballed, so I am trying this site. I may eventually use QtGRACE, but at this point I am just trying to continue using xmgrace. I am a NASA engineer, and I have been using xmgrace for perhaps 20 years or more for my work on air traffic management. I am not a software developer per se, but I do some development in Scala in support of my own ideas and research....

@andwin Btw, one person is now using my fork on github to make an Arch Linux package of qtgrace. I'll let you know whether he encounters any problems.
-
@andwin concerning the compilation errors. In Fedora 42 GCC 15 is used, which switched to C23 standard by default. Legacy yacc files have to be compiled with C17 standard, otherwise they won't pass the stricter checks of new standard. I implemented this in CMake in my fork but I don't know how to enforce the standard in qmake (should be a matter of setting a compiler flag). There is also a problem in server.h with incorrectly placed include guards leading to multiple definition errors (also fixed...

Dear Semen Yesylevsyy; In the past years I had questions regarding rpm-files from different people already. I have done modifications to QtGrace regarding the storage locations for files QtGrace needs on runtime to fit with the linux-filesystem better. But unfortunately I have not been able yet to generate rpm-files. People say they have been successfull, but I have not been able to reproduce their results. Often I had problems getting the newer Linux-distributions to run properly in the first place....
-
Dear Semen Yesylevskyy; I have tried to install Fedora 42 KDE and compile QtGrace. I got rather far, but the compilation failed due to multiple errors in pars.c (or pars.yacc): "too many arguments in function..." I do not understand this. I never got this error before and I did not change anything and as far as I can see the number of arguments is correct. Did you encounter similar errors? Therefore I could not reproduce your problems in Fedora, yet. But I think I could see what you mean on different...

Could you make a rpm spec file for QtGrace6? i tired and failed.

Dear @andwin thanks a lot for your reply! Maybe you can look at the issue, which I reported in 2023 concerning the absence of any antialiasing in KDE? (https://sourceforge.net/p/qtgrace/discussion/1358965/thread/ecd4b996fe/) This issues still persists now in Fedora 42 KDE and I suspect that it is somehow related to Wayland vs. X11 but I don't have enough knowledge to localize it. Also, I've recently made a fork of QtGrace on github for myself that uses CMake instead of qmake and compiles with Qt6...
-
Dear Semen Yesylevsyy; QtGrace is still alive, but in fact I have not done much in the last year or so. The main issue is, that I do not have urgend need for any improvements myself and that noone has asked about improvements for a long time. Therefore: What is there to do? Main issues for me are Qt6 currently because some things do not work as with Qt5. Apart from that I am still trying to get 64bit-versions of the pdfHaru-library and the fftw3-library. I think about including a 3D-plot next, but...

Dear @andwin, is QtGrace still alive or you abandoned it?

Thanks for quick reply! I don't see any antialiasing settings in the printing dialog and the general preferences of QtGrace. I have "Qt fonts" and "symbol fonts is special" selected, but I don't see any switch for antialiasing. It is also weird that the preferences dialog is displayed normally, but the color selection pop-up is not antialiased (attached), so I gues that something is definetely wrong. The KDE uses custom color scheme, but the widget style is a standard Breeze, so I wonder what can...
-
Dear Semen Yesylevskyy; the antialiasing is usually done internally. I don't think it is a KDE-issue. I can not test it at the moment, but I would suggest you check the settings for antialiasing in the preferences and in the printing setip dialog. Sometimes the antialiasing setzings get lost. I will check this myself as soon as I can. best regards andwin
-
First of all, I'm QtGrace user for many years and I want to thank a lot for this fascinating software! I recently switched from Linux Mint to Fedora 38 KDE and suddenly there is no antialiasing of fonts and lines in QtGrace (see screenshot). I've deleted the .ini file and recompiled QtGrace with no effect. Is this a Fedora-specific bug? It looks strange because this is KDE editiion and all othe Qt apps work flawlessly. Any suggestions are appreciated!
-
Dear PeterR; please look at the first entry in https://sourceforge.net/p/qtgrace/discussion/requested_features/thread/3f3ba2c2/ there you can download two files xaa and xab. Download them and open a terminal use a command like cat xaa xab > test.zip and unzip the new file. This is a preview version of QtGrace that should work on Apple Silicon. Please let me know whether this worked for you. best regards andwin

The new Apple MacBook Pro uses the Apple M2 chip, so I believe all current versions of QtGrace will not run. Help! Is there anyone who has recompiled Grace -- or QtGrace -- for the M2 chip? I am a longtime user of Grace, ever since it was merely Xmgr. I desperately need to get Grace running again!! PeterR

Dear Zahra Zare; Your answers are helpful, but I still can not tell what the reason for your problems is. The error-message: "[Error] Too many ticks ( > MAX_TICKS ), autoticking" occurs usually, when you have a X- or Y-axis with more then 256 tick-lines along the way. MAX_TICKS=256 is hardcoded into QtGrace. In the axis-Properies-dialog you can set start and stop and major-spacing. For example if you have x-start=0 and x-stop=1 and major-spacing=0.2 you get 6 ticks (0/0.2/0.4/0.6/0.8/1.0). If you...

Dear Andrea, -No, I didn't get this error when I open QtGrace without a project file or even if i do File->New. -I got this error in all project file - I got only that when opening the file - I checked that for simple file and it opened without error (like just 1 plot). But I usually use more than 1 plot. - Another thing I should mention is that I can not open file via File->open, I just do that with dragging xy file Thanks
-
Dear Zahra Zare; I need more informations to help you: - Does the error occur even if you open QtGrace without a project file or even if you do File->New? - Do you get the error for every project file? Or just one file? - Do you get the error once when opening a file or does the error occur repeatedly? - could you perhaps upload a small simple project file that results in the error? Thank you! Best regards andwin

Hi, I have this problem with Qtgrace as I open that do whatever I want but when I close it and I want to to open that it doesnt show me any thing "[Error] Too many ticks ( > MAX_TICKS ), autoticking" I am using surfacebook3 and Windows 11 Pro and the last version of QTgrace is installed.

Dear Sait Umar; I wanted to respond earlier, but I also wanted to test the current sources on Fedora. Unfortunately I was unable to install Fedora 37 properly in a virtual machine. I don't know why: at first everything looks ok, but as soon as I try to install new software packages nothing works as intended and as soon as I restart nothing works at all any more. Maybe I try again somtime, but I don't feel that I have so much time to waste (there is a reason I am not a big fan of linux anymore...)....
-
Hi, sorry for the late response. It would be good to get the latest version you have. Since in April I willl be updating the computers to Fedora 38 with libharu 2.4.3, it may be best to wait until then to test things again. I will also play with not mappinng the fonts. Thanks for all your support!
-
Dear Sait Umar; If it was a long time ago you probably got v0.2.7 and not v0.2.7a. There should not be a big difference - I do not know at the moment whether I changed anything concerning the pdf export. The postscript or EPS export is based on the original system from xmGrace/Grace and is therefore capable of exporting everything very well. The pdf export is based on the Haru-pdf-library which as far as I know is not able to create fill patterns (therefore there is solid-fill between sets only)....
-
Hi, I am not sure whether I got the 0.27a or not....it was a long time ago. Yes, I compile qtgrace myself. I created an rpm spec file, which is attached below. When you export to postscript everything seems to work ok. Thanks!
-
Dear Sait Umar; I was able to see the beta-letters in the legend in the pdf on you orignal post at the top (tested on Mac OS X). Yes, the 0.2.7a-version is not in the official release files. It is in a comment in the requested features forum. Did you compile v0.2.7 yourself? I will try reproducing what you did in Fedora to see whether this is a Fedora-specific issue. Best regards andwin
-
Thanks for the response! I now see the reply box..... I am Fedora Linux 37. Using Qt5. As far as qtgrace I do not see the 0.27a in the files on sourceforge. The About under Help is showing 0.27. The libharu library in Fedora 37 is 2.3.0. It looks like Fedora 38 (coming in April( will have version 2.4.3. One other issue on the plots I sent you was that the greek letter beta was not showing in the legend. I am also attaching the source file for the plots. Thanks!
-
Dear Sait Umar; Reply should be possible now. Concering your file: I recreated your QtGrace-project file and tried to export the file in pdf-format using Haru-library. The only problem I noticed is that there is no fill pattern between the two sets (just a solid blue filling). The same thing happens when I export the pdf without Haru directely via Qt. The reason is, that the Haru-library is used internally by Qt as well - and the Haru-library is unable to generate fill patterns. The second problem...

Dear Sait Umar; Please have a look at the entry about the Haru-pdf-library in the QtGrace-Extensions (Help->QtGrace-Extensions inside QtGrace). You should get a library for Haru in the QtGrace-download. You usually just have to tell QtGrace in the Preferences where to look for it and to activate it. Then you have to use the output-format pdf(haru) instead of the usual pdf. If you have problems activating libharu, let me know (there are still combinations of the librarty and of the operating system...

Dear Hiran Gurusingha; I assume that you are using a display with a high resolution like 4K. Here is a chapter of the help-file for the next version of QtGrace. The options should work in version v0.2.6. Adjustments for large screen resoutions In the last years the resolution of computer screens has increased quite a bit. I especially refer to 4K-displays that became affordable. QtGrace (like Grace) uses default dialog-, font- and icon-sizes in pixels to represent options in the dialogs. It is easy...

No problem,I will look at the grace makefiles and if they don't work I will manually copy them in the rpm spec file. Thanks!

Dear Sait Umar; The Makefiles in doc and other folders are relicts of grace-5.1.22. I never changed anything in these files (as far as I can remember) because I only use the qmake-command and make inside the src-directory. I am not shure who generated the different Makefiles (I remember, that several years ago someone tried to help me generate a rpm-file, but I do not know whether this worked as intended. I know, that I had to make a lot of changes of the internal structure, but I do not know whether...

Hi, the above suggestions cured all the compilation problems....I will try to build the rpm now. Thank you for your help.

Dear Sait Umar; Concerning the "-Werror=format-security"-problem: I have tested this option myself and to make the compiler happy please use: fputs(result_params.toLocal8Bit().constData(),cp); instead of the original fprintf(cp,result_params.toLocal8Bit().constData()); and remove my first suggestion with the dummy_text. There is a similar error in computils.cpp at line 694: sprintf(buf, QObject::tr("\nN.B. Statistics...") (I am too lazy to write the whole line here, but I think you will find it anyway)....

Dear Sait Umar; Thank you for your report. At first I need to know which version of the Qt-Library you are using. AA_EnableHighDpiScaling is available only for Qt5.6 or higher. If you are using some version lower than 5.6, just remove this line of code, it is not very important (it should only effect displays with very high resolution). The first error you report is a bit strange for me: in the write_set-function all data from every set is written in a QString-object (as text). This object can afterwards...

Hello, I just grabbed version 027 from the previous discussion and tried to build it on Fedora 34 with gcc 11 and got the following errors so far: ../src/files.cpp: In function 'int write_set(int, int, FILE, char, int, int)': ../src/files.cpp:2920:12: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Werror=format-security] 2920 | fprintf(cp,result_params.toLocal8Bit().constData()); | ~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ qtgrace.cpp:2742:32: error: ‘AA_EnableHighDpiScaling’...

Hi, Andreas: Yes, this version fixes the issue I was having. Thank you very much for all your attention. For a program that has not seen a release in 4 years, I wasn't sure I was going to get any kind of response...boy, was I wrong; I received the best. Will let you know if I find anything else. Thanks again for everything. Regards, Germán

Dear Germán; Here you go. I hope this is helpful. I have tested your script and it should work as intended. Please let me know if you can work with this or if you have further questions or suggestions. Best regards andwin

Dear Germán; I do not like the Visual Studio either. I am using the QtCreator since I need the Qt-library anyways. This means that QtGrace is compiled with MinGW64. Using the QtCreator also has the advantage that I can use the same compilation procedure on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. I will compile QtGrace for Windows (64bit) for you and post the zip-file here. Give me a few hours (I am currently editing some things in QtGrace I want to finish first). About grace-5.1.22 to 5.1.25: I had a look to...

Oh, boy...I am afraid that trying to compile this project in Windows is a bit of a tall order for me, at this very time. As mentioned, I am coming from the Linux parallel universe and, even so, through the MSYS2/MinGW64 portal, to ease my entry; otherwise, I have never used Visual Studio, either, which seems to be the de-facto development thing developers use on Windows...for now, I am sticking to the GNU Toolchain. So, yeah, I would very much appreciate if it was you who re-builds QtGrace and makes...

Dear Germán; Thank you for your replay! Yes, this is a small bug in QtGrace (every bug-report helps to improve QtGrace - thank you). The problem is, that in batch-mode the gui is not initialized. But there is a command that says: add every loaded file to the history-list in the main-window. This command fails in batch-mode because the main-window does not exist. If you can compile QtGrace yourself you just have to edit one line in files.cpp: in the funciton int load_project(char *fn, int as_n_template)...

Hi, Andreas: First of all, thanks for keeping up with me. Unfortunately, I don't know how to work with pipes, either; not a show stopper, though, as you indicated, I looked into batch mode. I looked into the one program that uses xmgrace and noticed that they were taking a 2-step approach. 1. They put together an *.agr file 2. Open and shut a non-gui/interactive xmgrace session; during such session, they send another 20 commands: the first one loads the *.agr file...the last one prints the plot....

Dear Germán; The grace_np-library actually opens xmgrace in the background and establishes a pipe for communication. Since I do not know how to work with pipes in Windows I have disabled the pipes for Windows. Therefore the libgrace_np does not work and therefore I did not include a dll-file for this. If you know how to work with pipes on Windows let me know and I could reactivate the pipes and also include libgrace_np.dll for external communication. The libgrace_np opens xmgrace once and lets you...

Thanks for such a prompt reply. The reason why I asked was precisely because I had tried command-line help (-h, --help) and got nothing back; but, re-directing the output to a file worked...weird, but very good news. Thanks for that trick. Now, I may continue to look into this further. As mentioned, it looks like the one program of ours uses Grace in batch mode, launching it in non-gui mode, assemblying commands and executing; it looks like our program links to the grace library (grace_np.h / libgrace_np.so)...
-
Dear Germán; Yes, you get a qtgrace.exe that should work like the xmgrace executable on Linux. It should also contain all the non-gui command-line capabilities of xmgrace. I do not use these and therefore do not test them extensively. The command-line options should work. You should be able to create plots with batch-files just like xmgrace. If you send me some examples of command-line-options you need I can also test them for you. Or you test them and tell me if you find something that does not...
