Hi, <div>2008/1/31, Maria Holstensson <<a href="mailto:Maria.Holstensson@icr.ac.uk">Maria.Holstensson@icr.ac.uk</a>>:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi, Thanks for your reply! I tried setting all those flags to 0, but it doesn't make that big a difference in the size of the ROOT output file.</blockquote><div> Are you sure to put all flags to 0 ? There is one flag per digitizer module, such as : #/gate/output/root/setRootSinglesAdderFlag 0 #/gate/output/root/setRootSinglesReadoutFlag 0 #/gate/output/root/setRootSinglesBlurringFlag 0 #/gate/output/root/setRootSinglesThresholderFlag 0 </div> and more ... so if you defined such modules, I think this is the reason why you even get big root files. Hope it helps, Simon <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I have all the information I need in the ASCII output, and due to lack of disk space I would like to exclude the ROOT output. But it doesn't seem to be possible? (If I at the same time want the random seeds) Thanks again, Maria >>> "Hannes Hofmann" <<a href="mailto:opengate@f00f.de">opengate@f00f.de</a>> 31/01/2008 10:22 >>> Hi, > Yes, at the moment my solution is the one you > suggest - to include the ROOT output.

You could also consider disabling some output for ROOT if you do not need them, e.g. /gate/output/root/setRootHitFlag 0 /gate/output/root/setRootSinglesFlag 0 /gate/output/root/setRootNtupleFlag 0 etc. > Regarding the ASCII output, yes I have had a look at these in Excel and > they are truncated because the list is too long.

Excel is just not made for such things.
