Gavrog Description

Free and open source app that will help you generate, analyze and visualize reticular ornaments Gavrog stands for Generation, Analysis and Visualization of Reticular Ornaments using Gavrog. It is about solid state chemistry, pretty pictures, and rather involved mathematics. Think Escher, Alhambra, crystals, soap bubbles.NOTE: Gavrog is released under the Apache License V2.0. What's New in This Release: · The software viewer is used automatically if OpenGL is not available. · BUG FIX: no more corrupted scenes when reading back '.gsl' files. · The random recoloring of tile classes is now 'more random'. · Removed the 'fullscreen' and 'maximal size' menu entries. · The search (-f) action now uses regular expressions. · Simple tiling properties are now displayed first before rendering the tiling. · The 'Dualize' and 'Max. Symmetry' actions now refuse to produce duplicates. · Unnamed tilings now receive default names of the form '#'. · An arbitrary viewing direction can now be specified via a dialog box. · Users can now set the step size for rotations via the arrow keys. · Changed the maximum level of surface detail to 4 (previously 3). · The color pickers in the option dialogs no longer ignore the current colors. · In "Open" and "Save" actions, full file names are now remembered. · If no creasing is applied, edges now have constant width. · Some basic info on each tiling is now saved in .ds files. · I/O paths and other interface attributes are no longer stored in scene files. · The "Fill Space" pane (formerly "Unit Cells") can now work additively. · Added the ability to blend edge and tile colors. · For files with multiple tilings, the user now selects which to show first. · Improved the layout for the option dialogs. · A disabled unit cell no longer creeps up when reembedding. · A dialog is now shown before writing over an existing file. · All recoloring dialogs now show the current color as the default. · Changed filter settings for Sunflow (raytracer) to obtain crisper images. · Brought back the Sunflow preview option. · All net nodes now re-use the same geometry, thus saving process memory. · The controls window is positioned better with regard to the viewer. · The viewer size is now remembered between program runs. · Added keyboard controlled rotations (left, right, up, down etc.) · Restructured the "File" menu for easier image export. · The underlying net of a tiling can now be displayed. · BUG FIX: unit cell now shows up in Sunflow renders with small field of view.
