Hello everybody

I am trying to define a non symmetrical PET, I mean, I can not use a  
conventional repeater as Ring or Linear. I am forced to use a  
genericRepeater. Singles information is stored in the ROOT file, but I  
am afraid I can not store Coincidence information. My current Gate  
version is Gate_v7.2. The code I am using is this one:

#/vis/open					VRML2FILE

If anybody knows how to solve this problem I will be very thankful
