All 6.4 versions in debian/ubuntu have both the wxpython and tk guis
available. You have only to install also the Suggested packages
and select the new gui by -wx option.

Re: [GRASS-user] Tutorial Not Same as GRASS 6.4

2011-03-01 Thread Sylvain Maillard
You just launch GRASS with the old Tcl/Tk interface
(http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/manuals/html64_user/gis.m.html) and
the tutorial was made with the new wxGUI
(http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/manuals/html64_user/wxGUI.html)

GRASS 6.4.0RC5+39438 is quite old, there are a lot of bug fixes and
improvements in the user interface, you will better have to download
the latest release from the website
(http://grass.osgeo.org/download/index.php). As the wxGUI is now the
default GUI, you will better understand what is written in the
tutorial ;)


cheers,
Sylvain

 I have GRASS 6.4.0RC5+39438 (2009).  I followed the tutorial, with lots
 of mental corrections and managed to get the example displayed.  The
 tutorial is good, just needs some tweeking to match the GRASS display.

 A quick introduction to the 6.4 wxGUI and raster maps,
 http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Quick_wx_tutorial,
 Does not correspond to the GRASS display.

 For example,

 Once inside add a raster map layer such as elevation from the
  PERMANENT mapset. To do this click on the checkerboard toolbar
 button with a + on it and then select the map name from the
 pull-down list which appears, and click [Ok].

 There is no icon checkerboard with a + on it.  Rather, there is a
 green, red, orange icon with an arrow in it.  However, it does have the
 description Add raster layer.  And, there is not a pull down list.
 Rather, a layer is added, labeled raster1 and clicking the i button
 brings up a pop-up that allows selecting the map.

 I am not good at describing things.  I don't know what the author
 intended the icons to be.

 How do I help feeding back the corrections?  Or, is this tutorial for a
 newer version?

I had neglected to upload the images that went along with that, now they
are up and hopefully it makes more sense now.

Probably it would help if someone could decorate the images with big red
arrows, and circled icons.

(GIMP: add a new layer, select by circle (keep x,y numbers equal to 
get a round one), Select-Border +2 pixels, change background color to
red, and Ctrl-x to cut donut [make sure antialias or feathering is checked in 
tool opts])

that's right, wxPython GUI became to be default GUI in 6.4.0RC6.
