You may want to take a look at Liant's FIGraph, a charting and graphing
function library built on top of PHIGS.  It comes with both a C and a FORTRAN
binding and it does lines, bars, pies, contours, and surfaces in addition
to scatter plots.  Since FIGraph sits on top of PHIGS, it works great
in an X environment, though you're not forced into an X only environment.

Anyway, if you want the usual marketing literature, send a note to 
info@liant.com.

If you have technical questions, send them to me, joes@lpi.liant.com.

These are the costs of override_redirect. The window manager does not care
about such a window in any way. You will have to do everything yourself, i.
e. installing the colormap (see XInstallColormap) and giving the input
focus to your window (see XSetInputFocus).

I thought it was generally accepted that having "." at the beginning of
the PATH variable was a bad idea because of various nasty tricks
such as, for instance, having a world-executable shell script named "ls"
in a directory that contains the command "rm -rf ~". Then if you changed
to that directory and typed "ls", you'd wipe out your directory, since
"./ls" and not "/bin/ls" would be executed.

Or is this something different?

This really isn't possible, unless you are willing to, effectively,
print screendumps of a (possibly relatively-high-resolution) screen.
Think about simulating XCopyArea or drawing with a function of GXxor,
to name just two that come to mind right off.

Or, of course, you're willing to (rather severely, IMO) restrict the X
operations you can perform.

Subject: Need help dragging objects on drawing area
Date: 9 Nov 92 22:04:07 GMT
Organization: Drexel University, College of Engineering, Philadelphia, PA


Hello,

I am writing an application that draws objects to the screen and connects
lines to these objects depending on the relations between the objects.

When the user selects an object, I would like to 'gray' it out, and let
the user 'drag' the object around the screen.
The object won't be changing size, just its location.

Question 1: How do you go about dragging an object around the drawing area?
            Can this be done ?

I have the rubber-band functions, those can be obtained from most X/Motif books.

The object is also draw in an unmanaged Pixmap, so that when the drawing area is
resized or exposed I can copy the info from the Pixmap to the Drawing Area.
I keep track of the objects and their relations in a tree type data structure,
I also keep each objects location, width and height in the trees nodes.

Question 2: How can I print text vertically?  I read in a book that libraries
            are in development to help the programmer do this or until Display 
            PostScript comes to X.  Any ideas how I can do this?

Any advice, comments, source code would be very helpful.

System Configuration: DEC/ULTRIX, X windows X11R4, Motif 1.1.

Thanks in advance for your help and time!!!

Yes but this doesn't sound like what the guy's describing. If this is
just free() only freeing memory back to the process, then starting the
same X client over again and walking it through the same sequence of
tasks should not cause the server process size to grow, because the
memory it freed before is still available to it.

The story as originally posted sounded like a server leak, and I
certainly don't know of this being a "well-known bug" in any vendor's
X implementation.

You can't call xv_create(p, PANEL_BUTTON, ...) in canvas.  You have to draw your
own and then use WIN_EVENT_PROC in the canvas to check the mouse movement to assign
your callback function.  When user move the mouse to that area and do a MS_LEFT
event then you trigger your callback routine.  Good luck.

Summary: Help required speeding up realtime animation on DG Aviions

I am writing on behalf of friends who work for a software firm who
produce Aerospace software which runs on Data General Aviions, and who
are still trying to convince management to connect them to the net.

One of their products is a real-time radar training simulator under
'X Windows' which must perform a full 'military' radar simulation (ie.
have chaff, jamming, etc).  Currently the performance of the radar is
very slow (using XDrawFilled - Polygon as phosphor fading must be
simulated), and they are interested in approaches which could speed up
drawing (and radar plot calculation if any good algorithms are around -
they have around 20000 paints on a 500x500 window in a 5 second period,
including fading.

A number of standard techniques, like using colour maps are not
appropriate as a large number of colours must be allocated to other
parts of the system.

Any useful suggestions would be appreciated (Hardware is not an
option :-)

This only work for ButtonPress/Release, but not KeyPress/Release, why?

If you see O'Reilly volume 6 "Motif Programming Manual" page 339

You will see:

XmNinputCallback	ButtonPress, ButtonRelease,	XmCR_INPUT

Can someone out there explain to me why the KeyPress/Release are

are work for me?

available in not too long.
