    Russell, I have found a little bit of information about QT and dark mode. It seems as though an option for dark mode became functional with Qt 5.12.2, but implementing it in applications requires a bit of extra code, as described here: https://successfulsoftware.net/2021/03/31/how-to-add-a-dark-theme-to-your-qt-application/ But, the even better news is that Mac applications can be set to use only the light mode with a small addition ot the info.plist file. This is described near the bottom of the...

    I think that I figured it out! The problem seems to be related to the dark mode that is now an option on MacOS (and the default, I think). If SciDAVis is launched with dark mode on, the colors are mixed up, as seen in the About box posted earlier. I had checked earlier to see if dark mode might be the problem, and I was thrown of track because changing to light mode when SciDAVis was open didn't change anything. But, if light mode is on when the progam is started, the colors are fine! And, if dark...

    Here is a snapshot of the About box, as it appears on my system, I see this on two computers of mine, but I just checked on another system and it looks fine! I think that ther must be something else installed on my systems that is causing this. I will try to figure it out and report back. Thanks! David

    SciDAVis color problem on MacOS 12 (Monterey)

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on discussion General Discussion

    I want to thank Russel and all of the other SciDavis developers for the great work that they have been doing. I only recently discovered that the latest versions, 2.x, are available as precompiled binaries for MacOS. This is wonderful! The user interface seems to behave much more smoothly than with the 1.x versions. In. particular, it is now easy to resize a graph without accidentally resizing the layer. A small thing, perhaps, but it was an endless source of frustration for my students and me. Thanks...

    Thanks for checking. Although I might be able to build the latest version, I really need to be available for students in a class. I would be happy to help in the process of making a Mac binary available, but I would need some direction. David

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on ticket #415

    Thanks very much. Unfortunately, I will probably have to wait until version 2.x is available on MacOS before I can take advantage of this fix. David

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on ticket #413

    Thanks very much for looking at this! Here is a project file. It may well be that this has been fixed in the later versions of SciDavis, but 1.26 is the newest version available for MacOS, as far as I know. David

    I just discovered the same problem, using wxMaxima 19.12.1, installed with homebrew. Thanks, David

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on ticket #371

    This appers to be fixed in the 1.25 release. Thank you! David

    HPC, Thanks for your ongoing efforts. This is not urgent, and the patched version will be appreciated whenever it becomes available. David

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on ticket #371

    Many thanks to Fellype and gbm for taking a look at this, and my apologies for omitting the project file, which I am attaching now. I was able to reproduce the crash with this file on Windows 10 and SciDAVis 1.2.3, running on virtual machine with Virtual Box. I think that one of the key elements that leads to the crash is changing the x-axis association between columns with different x values. In any case, it sounds like gbm has found a fix, and I look forward to seeing his patch incorporated in...

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on ticket #308

    There's no rush, but I've played around a bit and have narrowed down the conditions where this error occurs (so far). It seems to happen when the maximum of the x-axis is 1000 or greater. In this case the error occurs when trying to reset the tics on either the x- or y-axis. Making the maximum on the x-axis less than 1000 fixes the problem on both axes. Also, a negative value for the minimum on the y-axis seems to cause the same error, but a negative minimum on the x-axis doesn't. Also, the same...

    It may well be Mac specific. Is there anything that I can do to help track it down?

  • David Goldenberg David Goldenberg posted a comment on ticket #266

    Russel, Thanks very much for incorporating the patches for this and the curve fit error bug into the new Mac biary for 1.18. I think that I may be able to help explain the issue bbear2002 has been describling, and offer a work around In all of the versions I have looked at (sarting at 1D8, but not of all them since), when the "Draw backbone" option is turned on, there is a small gap between the ends of the vertical axes and the bottom axis. In 1D8, turning on the Canvas frame option drew a box that...
