New developments in code, documentation and website are reported here.
GAMGI 0.13.8
3rd August 2008
This is a bug fix release. Several new and old bugs, simple but puzzling
and affecting productivity, were clarified and removed. Converted Cell
Align option menus (Gtk 1) to combo boxes (Gtk 2).
What is new:
- Fixed a simple but old and relevant bug in the Expat code:
conventional axes were exported when they should be primitive.
- Fixed a bug with Gtk 2.0 code: the window bottom bar
must be hidden after showing the window, otherwise this does
not work properly when coming from XML files.
- Replaced all the GTK 1 option menus in gamgi_gtk_cell_align
by GTK 2 combo boxes and cleaned the code.
- Fixed a Gtk warning in Atom->Config: Charge entry is not there.
- Changed sligthly the mass, radius, charge defaults policy: all atoms
must now have valid mass, radius, charge. For Dummy atoms the default
mass and radius is 1.0. Elements without a known radius get radius from
the lower element that has one. For all elements default charge is 0.0
- Reorganized all the atomic mass, radius, color data in Gamgi:
all this data is now stored in arrays in gamgi_chem_property.c.
- Synced mass, radius atomic defaults with the new mass, radius data.
- Fixed a bug in Gtk code: when pressing with the mouse on the ruler
and move,rotate,scale mode was off, garbage messages would show up.
- Fixed the mathematical algorithm to solve systems of two linear
Diophantine equations: we were missing some solutions because we were
not taking into account all the infinite intermediate solutions.
What is next:
- Replace GtkFileSelection by GtkFileChooserWidget.
- Add a bond angle, which is useful to control double bonds
in solid mode.
- Add plane area and direction length to Plane->Measure and
Direction->Measure.
- Write tutorials about crystalographic and atomic Plane,Direction usage.
- Implement dynamic text objects, to measure distances,
angles, etc. on real time.
- Improve selection dialogs, including list selection methods.
- Implement multiple object picking, including a
dynamic frame with moving ants and dragging anchors,
to select multiple objects and images from the screen.
GAMGI 0.13.7
8th July 2008
Added mass data for most important isotopes, including isotope abundance and
half-life (source: wikipedia). Added radius data including natural half-distances,
effective and calculated atomic radius, effective and calculated (2008) covalent
radius, Van der Waals radius (webelements). Added the widely used Shannon ionic
radius, depending of valence and coordination (Acta Cryst. paper). Cleaned and
replaced option menus by combo boxes in Cell->Link, Cell->Create and Cell->Modify.
Added new screenshots. Improved Help information for exported type formats,
Atom->Create and Atom->Modify. Many thanks to Pedro Isidoro and Luis Veiros,
who contributed to this release (providing the Shannon original papers and
collecting atomic data).
What is new:
- Fixed warnings in gamgi_phys_cell_link due to discarded attributes.
- From now on, for ALL atoms, including Dummy (Du), atomic mass and
radius must always be positive and charge can take any real value.
- Updated Cell->Link, Atom->Create, Atom->Modify Help documentation.
- Added mass, radius information to documentation covering Atom->Create
and Atom->Modify.
- Cleaned the interface and behaviour of Cell->Link.
- Replaced all option menus (GTK 1) in Cell->Link by combo boxes (GTK 2).
- Changed Atom->Create and Atom->Modify Help documentation for
notebook style. Updated Help->Current and Help->Topic accordingly.
- Added 5 new screenshots, to represent the 0.13 series.
- Simplified notation for mass and radius data, available from
Atom->Create and Atom->Modify.
- The 2008 covalent radius are now fully working on Gamgi.
- Grabed from WebElements
the new (2008) calculated covalent radius, available for Z <= 96.
- Updated effective and calculated atomic radius data, from
WebElements.
- The complete ionic Shannon (1976) radius are now fully working on Gamgi.
- The atomic radius information for all elements, including half-distance in
natural state, atomic effective, atomic calculated, covalent and Van der Waals
radius, is now working.
- The isotopic information for all elements, including isotope abundance,
half-life and excited states, is now working.
- Replaced the option menu (GTK 1) Scope, in Cell->Remove, by
a combo box (GTK 2).
- Added a new size, GAMGI_ENGINE_STRING, currently 50, for pair values.
- Replaced option menu (GTK 1) Borders, in Object->Measure dialogs by
combo box (GTK 2).
- Added main introduction file main.html to Help->Current.
- Added JPEG, PNG, TIFF, PPM, PS, XYZ files to Help->Topic->Introduction.
- Added Interfaces, Formats files to Help->Topic. Cleaned headers.
- The XML Cell parameter "o_vectors" is now "origin_vectors".
- In Cell->Create and Cell->Modify, improved the Origin page interface
and behaviour.
- Replaced option menus (GTK 1) origin vectors, axes, axes vectors,
in Cell->Create and Cell->Modify by combo boxes (GTK 2).
- In Gtk Combo Boxes, the renderer should be added AFTER the
tree store. In Gtk Tree Views the renderer should be added BEFORE
the tree store. All Combo Boxes and Tree Views now follow this rule.
- Replaced o4 option menus (GTK 1) by combo boxes (GTK 2) in
Cell->Create, Cell->Modify.
- Replaced o4 option menus (GTK 1) by combo boxes (GTK 2) in
Plane->Create, Plane->Modify, Direction->Create, Direction->Modify.
- Fixed a little offset bug when handling the reference combo box in
Direction->Modify, in static_autonomy (introduced in GAMGI 0.13.5).
- Updated the make_local file: the default configuration should work fine
for Fedora 8.0, Ubunty 7.10, Suse 10.3, Mandriva 2008 on xf86 machines. The
commented configuration for the same distributions on amd64 is exactly the
same, except lib is replaced everywhere by lib64.
- Updated the users mailling list address in Help->Start.
- Added second level dialogs to show atomic mass, radius and charge,
from Atom->Create, Atom->Config and Atom->Config.
- We have now clear ideias on how to implement general, powerful polytopes
in GAMGI to describe atomic structures. Each polytope will be created as an
independent Group object, from Group->Link, Molecule->Link, Cluster->Link
or Cell->Link, entering the number of neighbours or the desired neighbour
shell thickness. Each procedure will create just one or all the equivalent
polytopes. From the math point of view, an incremental algorithm, with
conflicting information, a O(n) algorithm, will be used to calculate the
arbitrarily complex 3D convex hulls we need to build.
What is next:
- Replace everywhere GtkCombo and GtkOptionMenu by GtkComboBox.
- Replace GtkFileSelection by GtkFileChooserWidget.
- Redesign Atom->Create and Atom->Modify, according with the new
notebook style, with more properties, including a wide range of atomic
radius.

angles, etc. on real time.
- Improve selection dialogs, including list selection methods.
- Implement multiple object picking, including a
dynamic frame with moving ants and dragging anchors,
to select multiple objects and images from the screen.

Replaced GtkText by GtkTextview everywhere in GAMGI, so GTK_ENABLE_BROKEN is
no longer needed to compile with Gtk-2.0. Fixed bugs in locale, Ctr-C, atomic
radius, dialogs size and widget focus. Updated documentation to reflect the
change to Gtk-2.0/GtkGLext-1.0 libraries. Improved man page and icons.
What is new:

- Updated documentation: all the Installation files.
- Updated documentation: Requirements (front page, installation, project
technical) and Formats Attributes (manuals introduction).
- Updated cell/create_symmetry.html and cell/modify_symmetry documentation.
- All Help documentation is now shown with Gtk 2.0 GtkTextView instead
of Gtk 1.2 GtkText. #define GTK_ENABLE_BROKEN is no longer needed.

everything will work in dots. We will come to this again when GAMGI
interfaces get translated to other non-english languages. This is
explained in the man page.
- Fixed a bug in gamgi_expat_export_object: when atomic
radius is -1 (not defined), it should not be exported.
- Fixed the sizes for dialog Help->Tutorial,
and Cell second level dialogs System, Lattice, Group.
- Solved the accelerator group bug (Ctr-C not working):
"key_realease_event" was handled before the accelerator.
Solution: use g_signal_connect_after for keys.
- GAMGI has now its own icon.
Still needs some expert work. Tiago Farto, thanks for the transparency!

GAMGI 0.13.2
5th March 2008
Ported GAMGI to GTK 2.0/GTKGLext 1.0. Apart from very minor details everything seems to be working fine. This was essential to guarantee the GAMGI future.

a g_object_set_data function was removed by mistake when porting to GTK 2.0.
- Replaced Gtkglarea by Gtkglext library and modified the code in
gamgi_mesa_area, gamgi_mesa_select and gamgi_global_main accordingly.
GAMGI is now running apparently fine with Gtkglext, with multiple drawing
areas, shared pre-compiled lists and window-independent OpenGL resources.
- We have only one show stopper bug now, in gtkglarea code,
crashing GAMGI with GTK 2.0 on exit.
- Removed an resulting in lots of warnings when starting a top window
(GTK complaining about NULL pointers to functions in callbacks).

- First and second level dialogs seem to be working fine.
- Top menus are now working fine, but position, width should be improved.
- Replaced gtk_object_set_data, gtk_object_get_data, by
g_object_set_data, g_object_get_data. Replaced GTK_OBJECT by G_OBJECT.
- Gamgi is linking and running, sort of, on GTK 2.0, with #define GTK_ENABLE_BROKEN.
- Replaced gtk_entry_new_with_max_length and gtk_widget_set_usize by gtk_entry_new,
gtk_entry_set_width_chars, gtk_entry_set_max_length.
- Created a man page for Gamgi, with all the basic surviving skills.
