[Gate-users] Need visualization of the geometry

[Francisco Enríquez]

Hi Viraj,

I’m assuming that if you type /vis/open OGL you don’t get any error (i.e. That you install GATE with a visualization tool).  If that’s the case, have you tried adding this line: /vis/drawVolume?
Additionally, nothing is going to be displayed in GATE until you initialise your simulation - /gate/run/initialize

I hope these basic steps could help you.

Cheers,
Francisco

Dear Gate user below in the geometry which is define for PET scanner.i want to visualize it can you help how i can do that  I have tried with the /vis/open OGL command but nothing is shows in the viewer kindly provide the sequence of the commands so that i can able to visualize the above geometry in the viewer.
