Howdy,

	Apparently my cross-posting didn't work so I apologize if this
came up several times.
	I have a Mac IIcx with which I'm creating frames for animations
which I need to send to videotape thru an SGI Iris 4D/70GT and a
minivas. Since the two machines are not connected, or even CLOSE to each
other, I figured that the easiest way to get the frames tothe SGI is
through a tape drive. I was wondering if a 1/4" tape drive exists for
the Mac which writes tapes sompatable (readable) by the SGI's tape
drive. I have TAR and UUENCODE for the Mac so placing the files in a
UNIX-compatable format shouldn't be a problem. If anyone can tell me of
a drive that WILL work, please let me know via e-mail. Right now I'm
looking at the $499 tape drives that handle 160 MB/tape, but I'm not
sure of the SGI's limitations in terms of tape length.

Date: Wed, 27 Jan 1993 01:30:26 GMT

Unfortunately, pc users rule the roost in our department. We are therefore 
going to buy a slide maker that is to be driven by a pc.  We have been
investigating the poloroid ci 5000 with mixed results.  Part
of the problem may be image file formats. I have been converting the files
first to gif files, and then capturing them.  The software we have doesn't seem
to offer any other image formats except for the standard eps, hpgl etc.

1) Can anyone recommend a procedure or system (hardware + software) 
that can be used to make slides on a pc from sgi images?
 
2) If we had to do it right, that is with a  machine hooked directly to 
the sgi, what is available in the lower price range?

 thanks for your help!

you can ftp some of what you need from sgi.com.  ftp there and login
with a name of anonymous.  use your email name for the password.
cd to the directory ~ftp/graphics/bin.  there you will find
fromtiff.Z, totiff.Z, fromyuv.Z, toyuv.Z.  as well, in the directory
~ftp/graphics/tiff you will find some libraries and tools for working
with tiff images.

....ermmm, isn't the language specification for C++ fairly strict? If I were to take pieces of C code from my SGI and attempt to compile them elsewhere, I'd like to think that I wouldn't experience too much trouble :-) (also,for example, I can compile GL programs with gcc)

Incidentally, the trouble is in the linking stage. With the options, -traditional-cpp and -x c++, all is OK until link, when I get :

gcc -x c++ -traditional-cpp -o imgcat imgcat.c++

Does your concave polygons have any shared vertices? The concave decomposition
code is very sensitive about illegal polygons and will abort early if any are 
detected. From the man page:

      Polygons whose edges intersect each other are never guaranteed to be
     drawn correctly.

this includes repeating vertices. Each architecture tends to implement slightly
different algorithms for concave polygons, and illegal polygons are good for
detecting these differences.

A couple of things:

First, are you installing the colormaps?  You need to use
XSetWMColormapWindows to install the colormaps of both the normal and
overlay GL colormaps.  If they aren't installed, you won't get the
correct colors.

Second, and this is probably the problem, you are trying to use RGB
for the overlay planes.  Some of our very high end hardware may
support this (I don't know for sure), but most of the hardware
doesn't; and none of it does with overlays with a depth of 2.  With a
depth of 2 you have exactly 3 colors + transparent; and the best way
to allocate those three colors is to use X color allocation
mechanisms (It is often a good idea to get a new X colormap for the
overlay planes so you don't need to share the 3 colors between
multiple applications).  Then use color (not c3i) to allocate the colors.

There is a public domain package available called hpcdtoppm.  I believe it
was posted to comp.sources.  You can probably find it in one of the source
archives.

Note the current SGI CD-ROM drive can only read the first session on
your Photo-CD.  You only have one session, unless you returned the
Photo-CD to have more pictures added.

How much money do you have?  If you have all the $ to go to the high
end, you can get a great deal of productivity out of a
Crosfield/Scantronix/Xyvision combination.  You would then have
scanning, plotting, TIFF, Scitex R300, Hell, DDES, DSEA, Crosfield,
Scantronix, SGI, and many other file formats.  

Surely there is a Crosfield Scanner with enough quality for you.
There are a great many of them on the 2nd hand market.  

This is a solved problem, if you have the cash.
Can you give more specifics?

You might also try the Optronics ColorGetter, but I do not think it
scans A4; Optronics support out there is pretty thin.

the menu pop-down causes an expose event which results in a long

Is there any way to put the Motif graphics (or at least the pulldown

     Is there a way to display the output of an SGI on a generic
X terminal?  I have tried logging into the SGI and setting the 
display variable, but that doesn't work.

Thanks
