Detailed Description

Variable Documentation

char magic_key[NB_MAGIC_KEYS]

Example:

% define magic key 1 to delete fibers:
set simul:display *
{
   magic_key1 = m, ( delete 10 fiber microtubule )
   magic_key2 = C, ( cut fiber * { plane = 1 0 0, 0 } )
   label = (Press 'm' to delete fibers!)
}

up to 4 keys (magic_key0, magic_key1 ... 3) can be defined.

unsigned int period

if period==2, only every other frame will be displayed

unsigned int style

3 styles are implemented:

• style 1 used OpenGL lines and points. It is suitable for 2D work.
• style 2 is a faster display, also suitable for 2D.
• style 3 draw real tubes and uses OpenGL lighting for rendering. It is nice for 3D.
