Mac OS X ======== * I installed the latest Qt SDK 4.5.1 and added the instructions to the wiki (http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_wiki/index.php?title=Qt). * Everything compiles without troubles. * If I run an example (qtwidget) with one plot a window pops up which remains black. The only way to proceed is the right mouse button. Windows closes. * If I run an example (qtwidget) with more than one plot (x08) than window pops up which is black. Proceeding with the right mouse button shows then the following plots correctly. Plotting speed is slow but acceptable. * I run ctest --verbose and it passed all tests regarding the qt device. Windows ======= * Still use the "old" QT SDK 4.5.0 for MinGW only. * Everything compiles. * Examples run correctly, only right mouse button proceeds. But plots are extremely slow. In example 8 one plot needs more than 4 seconds to show up (Pentium M 1.6Ghz, 4.5 year old laptop). Wingcc needs fraction of a second. wxWidgets less a second. * ctest run out of disk space ;) Regards, Werner > > Thanks, Alban, for your efforts. > > Alan > __________________________ > Alan W.
