Re: [Plplot-devel] Status report on remaining issues to be addressed fortheforthcoming 5.11.1 release (wxwidgets issues)

Hi Alan Regarding the rendering, this is buffered. Hence the bit that actually displays to screen is a blt, which is close to instant - it should take significantly less than one screen refresh. Well that would be the case if using an accelerated method. With gdi, gdi+ or gtk which wxWidgets use

Hi Arjen: Thanks for that report. You said: > I have attached the result of the comprehensive_test.sh script on Cygwin. This time I had an X server running, so that Tk is properly recognised as a valid option. Good. I hope this part of the X setup is put into your script that sets up and runs

Re: [Plplot-devel] Comprehensive testing on Cygwin with Tcl/Tk/Itcl/Itk

Hi Alan, I had a quick look at the source code: only the Tcl bindings use this global variable plplotLibDir to communicate the location of the library. If we use a small "setter" function instead, then the complications of exporting/importing a variable from the PLplot library is not needed a

Re: [Plplot-devel] make test fails on cygwin

Hi Chris, Under "bare" Windows you need to expand the PATH variable in the same way. It has to do with the way Windows works. If you run the comprehensive tests, then the PATH variable is manipulated to make it point to the right build (several build configurations are tested by the comprehen

Re: [Plplot-devel] make test fails on cygwin

I'm happy to report: make test Running tests... Test project /home/chm/pdl/git/plplot/cygbuild Start 1: examples_c 1/20 Test #1: examples_c ... Passed 26.68 sec Start 2: examples_cxx 2/20 Test #2: examples_cxx . Passed 27.62 sec

[Plplot-devel] make test fails on cygwin

Running: cmake -DBUILD_TEST=ON ../ make make test all tests fail. When I add the dll/ directory to the path by hand then everything appears to be running ok. I'll let you know how it proceeds. Is there a reason that 'make test' on cygwin requires a hand fix? As far as I know this is a

Re: [Plplot-devel] Status report on remaining issues to be addressedfor the forthcoming 5.11.1 release (wxwidgets issues)

Hi Jim I fought with x17 too. Philosophically the only correct behaviour for a driver to do on resize is to replot the whole buffer. For x17, this is clearly much more plotting than necessary. However, the only alternative is for each driver to have a buffer parser which checks which part of the

Re: [Plplot-devel] Status report on remaining issues to be addressed for theforthcoming 5.11.1 release (wxwidgets issues)

Hi Alan Could describe exactly what the -np option should do and also add that to the documentation. At the moment for wxWidgets as soon as a page is rendered we move to the next page, which as you state causes at most a brief flicker of a plot. But this is exactly what the documentation states
