[Gate-users] LET Actor "setRestricted" and "setOtherMaterial" commands not found?

[Andreas Resch]

Hi Cassandra,

that is a very valid comment. Indeed, in version 9.0 it is not available 
yet, only for higher versions.
You can find the command in the source code here:
https://github.com/OpenGATE/Gate/blob/v9.1/source/digits_hits/src/GateLETActorMessenger.cc
but not in the 9.0 tag. So you need to upgrade :-)

cheers,
Andreas
