05:53.44 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: arrrrgh!!! rtedge was using a global named background, which was removed when
05:53.44 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: liboptical picked up the rt background variable of the same name. the problem
05:53.44 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: is that rtedge was using a triplet of ints, rt/liboptical used/uses a triplet of
05:53.44 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: floats! .. this caused the set command struct parse variable setting to not work
05:53.44 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: quite as was intended... resulting in the background never changing from black.
05:53.46 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: this fixes the problem by reinstating rtedges global int triplet but lets call
06:04.23 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/NEWS: (log message trimmed)
06:04.23 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: fixed rtedge/rtwizard background render failure bug where the -c set background
06:04.23 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: option would not behave as expected (it seemingly did nothing). the problem is
06:04.23 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: related to different way rtedge deals with the background compared to rt -- rt
06:04.23 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: uses a float triplet, rtedge was trying to use an int triplet. code changes
06:04.23 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: from some time ago made all background modifiers use liboptical's (float
06:04.25 CIA-10 BRL-CAD: triplet) global, which resulted in the bug. the int triplet was reinstated,
06:08.10 brlcad woo hoo.. ready to release
06:08.22 brlcad just gotta test irix64 build for sanity
08:35.05 narnia which release?
08:35.25 narnia irix as in sgi?
10:42.48 narnia well the debugging to progressing. still homing in on the area of source code that may be the problem. writing more debugging code. mainly, it will dump the entire hash table in a sane manner.
10:43.25 narnia the problem with dummping the entire hash table in a sane manner is that the output is large.

17:31.01 tancred In working with the Introduction to MGED document the menus I am suppose to be using don't match my version (7.2.0)
17:31.16 tancred For example in the Edit menu there is suppose to be a Solid Editor.
17:31.59 tancred Do I need to upgrade?
18:15.43 *** join/#brlcad CIA-5 (~CIA@flapjack.navi.cx)
18:16.39 CIA-5 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/bwish/Makefile.am: simplify the libraries to (hopefully) just what is needed
18:16.47 CIA-5 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/rttherm/Makefile.am: score one for irix, tcl lib must come after the tk lib to resolve the tcl symbols in libtk ..
