Elegant users forum

Under Fedora-15 - 64 bit,
I installed following packages with rpm -Uvh :

- elegant-24.0.1-1.x86_64.rpm
- SDDSToolKit-2.9-3.x86_64.rpm
- SDDSEpicsToolKit-2.9-1.x86_64.rpm
- EpicsExtensions-3.14.11-1.x86_64.rpm
- OAGTclTk-8.4.13-6.x86_64.rpm

elegant itself works well under Fedora-15, 32 bit or 64 bit.
But when I tried to save an sddsplot output into eps or png file, I can not type or modify its file name.

From "File" -> "Setup" menu of sddsplot, normally, we can choose/modify a file name (PRINT -> Print File: SAVE -> Save File:).
But with the last version, we can not change or modify these file names as we wish.
We can see the same problem from 32 bit version as well as 64 bit version.

Therefore, its output file name is always mpl.ps for "PRINT" case, ~/mpl.png for "SAVE" case.

If we can solve this issue, it will be very helpful to save our working time in saving files.

Yujong,

Until the problem is solved, you can also make EPS or PNG as follows:

% sddsplot -device=png,onwhite -output=plot.png ...

% sddsplot -device=ceps -output=plot.eps ...

Running "sddsplot -list" will give a list of device types supported by sddsplot.

Dear Dr. Borland,

Many thanks for your quick answer.

I will use your recommended commands until it is solved.

I also checked that sddsplot works properly under Fedora-14 32 bit.

Sincerely yours,

Yujong Kim
