Hi,
I've been using OpenFlipper for visualization purposes for some time now, I'm quite impressed by the available options (e.g. the number of supported file formats and plugins)! There are a few questions/remarks/suggestions I'd like to ask:
1.) Scrolling up in the viewer results in zooming out, scrolling down results in zooming in. Since I'm an avid Blender user, I'm used to the opposite scrolling behaviour. Is there a way to modify this in OpenFlipper? I could of course change it in the source and re-compile it, but this is not exactly the ideal solution :).
2.) When loading an object (e.g. a .vtk file containing a model consisting of hexahedral cells), the cells are displayed in white. However, the option at 'View' → 'Color schemes' → 'Default colors' results in the cells being displayed in grey. Can this option be invoked when a new object is loaded? Added to tracking system as Bug #1696. The color plugin is not
personnaly i think blender is using the wrong direction ;-). I commited a new patch to the svn which adds an invert checkbox to the options dialog. maintained very well. Usually you can set the default color via Options->General Viewer Settings -> Default Color. I have to check, if the vtk plugin uses this setting.
3.) In an earlier version, it was possible to display the hexahedral mesh (flat shaded) and the irregular edges simultaneously, which was a very nice option. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to do this in the new version. Is it still possible? BTS-> Bug #1697
I'm currently using OpenFlipper v1.4, just compiled it from source. Might be useful to mention that I'm working on an Arch Linux system (64 bit). While compiling, I got a lot of warnings:
warning Detected QT Version higher than 4.8.4! warning OpenFlipper has not been tested with this QT Version.
The version of QT installed on my system is 4.8.5 (as well as QT 5). So far, no problems in OpenFlipper! Thanks for the report. We also updated some build daemons -> works fine. Upgraded tested version to 4.8.5 ( Qt5 is also working partially and will be supported soon)
Best, Jan Möbius
