#463 Right clicking does nothing in "draw tool"
I don't know what I could be doing wrong. In "draw tool", I made a bunch of atoms, and then I tried to delete them by right clicking on them. Nothing happens. I know right clicking in general works (like in "navigation tool").
I am using Kubuntu Linux 9.10. I first tried the 1.0 release and it gave me the problems. Then I tried to compile the source from the git repo and it is giving me the same problem.
It is interesting to note that "Kalzium" (which probably uses Avogadro for its 3-D model viewer/editor) has the same issue(s).
Any help would be great, thanks.
You're right!
I've looked at the code and found it should work. Maybe you are using open-source ATI driver (as me)? It fails when RenderMode != GL_RENDER (picking atoms/bonds)
Please, give information about your video driver. Can you select atoms?
Ok, so I can't seem to be able to select atoms either.
I have two computers and both of them are showing are showing the same problem:
One computer is actually running Kubuntu 10.04 using the open source ATI driver (it has an integrated Radeon HD 3000 in it). The other computer is running Kubuntu 9.10 and uses the open source Intel driver (it has an integrated GMA 950 in it).
It seems you'll not be able to do any 'pick' actions with this driver. Try proprietary ATI driver.
However, it's very strange that it doesn't work for Intel
Is it possible to confirm that this bug is due to the open source ATI driver's bad "glRenderMode(GL_SELECT)" implementation?
Also, random note, using the proprietary ATI driver on Ubuntu 10.04 will crash X and even uninstalling the driver will leave X.org's settings in a very bad mess in which you have to start from scratch :(.
(K)ubuntu just updated their drivers and now picking/right clicking on atoms works. Therefore, it was just a driver issue.
