Thank you all for good suggestions. I will make a try during the week.

    Hi
    
    I wonder what selection I should do on the ccmake of geant4 and gate in order to be able to visualize the geometry? I know one can use QT but how should I install this? I have the latest MacOS.
    
    Hälsningar / Best Regards

    Hi Hälsningar,
    
    I used to install GATE on Linux Ubuntu, for visualizing simulation geometry you need at least to put 'GEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11' to 'ON' . To use QT you need to install it (if it's not available on your machine).
    Here is a link on how to install QT on MacOS, just follow the described steps.
    https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/install-mac.html
    
    Then during the configuration of GEANT4 using CCMAKE put 'GEANT4_USE_QT' to 'ON' and in the  variable 'QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE' enter the path to you're QT installation folder.
    
    If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask.
    
    Mahdjoub,
    St. Louis, MO, USA

    Hello Michael,
    
    I just checked my installation: G4 (and thus Gate) use the qt version
    installed with conda: https://anaconda.org/anaconda/qt
    It is easy to install : conda install -c anaconda qt
    You need to install anaconda before :
    https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/mac-os/
    
    once qt is installed, check in the G4 ccmake that Qt5Core_DIR (and other QT
    related variables) are set to this qt conda version.
    
    Surely other methods to install qt exist, but this one works for me.
    
    HTH,
    David

    Hi Michael,
    I had similar issues. What worked for me was installing QT using conda. (https://anaconda.org) So you would do something like
    
    $ conda install qt
    
    My ccmake configuration then is:
    
     Qt5Core_DIR                      /Users/nkrah/anaconda2/lib/cmake/Qt5Core
     Qt5Gui_DIR                       /Users/nkrah/anaconda2/lib/cmake/Qt5Gui
     Qt5OpenGL_DIR                    /Users/nkrah/anaconda2/lib/cmake/Qt5OpenGL
     Qt5PrintSupport_DIR              /Users/nkrah/anaconda2/lib/cmake/Qt5PrintSupport
     Qt5Widgets_DIR                   /Users/nkrah/anaconda2/lib/cmake/Qt5Widgets
    
    The same for the Geant4 compilation. On the other hand, using QT installed with brew did not work for me because of some dynamic library issues which I was unable to figure out.
    
    I also installed XQuartz (https://www.xquartz.org) to have X11 on the MacOS system. This appears to be used by Geant4:
     OPENGL_X11_INCLUDE_DIR           /usr/X11R6/include
    
    Let me know. We can also try to fiddle around together. I cannot really recall all the details - it was a bit of trial and error. Maybe other Gate on MacOS users have a technically more sound explanation than mine.
    
    Hope it helps,
    Nils
