<div dir="ltr">Interesting, not totally shocking though. The color editor does create an OpenGL viewport to render the transfer function widget, none of the other dialogs do. That could explain why it doesnt' like being popped out. It could be a combination of KDE/Qt version. We will be updating to Qt 5.0 soon. It will be worth trying to see if that address this issue.<div>

I have verified that the issue is specific to KDE ... If I run the GNOME<br>
window manager on the same workstation, the pop-up behaves correctly.<br>
Curiously, the behavior only impacts the color map editor. Other pop-up<br>
windows (file select, python window, connection window, etc) all behave<br>
correctly using KDE.<br>

I suspect that has something to do with KDE/X Windowing system. I wonder if<br>
anyone else on this list has seen this problem.<br>

If I run with the "-dr" flag, the color map window shows up inside<br>
of the<br>
main GUI (on the right hand side of the GL window) and works<br>
correctly. If<br>
I drag the color map editor tool outside of the main gui, I get the<br>
same<br>
behavior of the window disappearing if the cursor is outside of the<br>

I'm seeing some weirdness with the color map editor. If I<br>
choose<br>
the color<br>
map editor option, a separate window pops up as expected.<br>
But when<br>
I move<br>
my cursor from the main window over to the color map pop-up<br>
window,<br>
the<br>
color map window disappears. If I move my cursor back to<br>
the main<br>
window,<br>
the color map pop-up reappears. If I drag the main GUI<br>
window over<br>
to so<br>
that the edges of the main GUI window and the color map<br>
popup window<br>
are<br>
touching, then the color map editor window does not<br>
disappear.<br>
<br>
I'm using the Linux_64 prebuilt binary on a RHEL5 Linux<br>
system<br>
running KDE<br>
3.5.4.<br>

<br>
Folks,<br>

<br>
<br>
ParaView 4.1.0 is now available for download<br>
(<a href="http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php" target="_blank">http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php</a><br>
<<a href="http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php" target="_blank">http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php</a>> ).<br>
With over<br>
170<br>
issues resolved, this release includes several bug fixes and<br>
feature<br>
enhancements. For a detailed list of issues resolved, refer<br>
to the<br>
change<br>

<<a href="http://paraview.org/Bug/changelog_page.php" target="_blank">http://paraview.org/Bug/changelog_page.php</a>> ). Some of the<br>
notable<br>
enhancements in this release are as follows:<br>
<br>
<br>
Redesigned Color Map Editor panel<br>
<br>
This release introduces a completely designed panel for<br>
editing<br>
color and<br>
opacity transfer functions for scalar coloring. The panel,<br>
which is<br>
now a<br>
dockable widget, instead of a popup dialog, makes it easier<br>
to edit<br>
transfer<br>
functions as well as edit labels and annotations on the<br>
color legend<br>
or<br>
scalar bar. This also makes it easier to access some of the<br>
functionality<br>
introduced in the previous version of ParaView, such as<br>
categorical<br>
colors.<br>
It is now easier to edit transfer functions when using log<br>
scaling<br>
as the<br>
transfer function editor view now switches to log space.<br>

Enhancements to Find Data dialog<br>
<br>
Find Data dialog, introduced several versions ago, has<br>
quickly<br>
become of the<br>
main mechanisms for creating new selections. However, until<br>
now, if<br>
the user<br>
created selection using some other mechanism, such as<br>
selecting<br>
cells in the<br>
3D view, the Find Data dialog could not be used to inspect<br>
that<br>
selection.<br>
One had to use what was called the Selection Inspector. That<br>
has now<br>
been<br>
changed. Find Data dialog has been updated to always show<br>
the active<br>
selection, no matter how it was created.<br>
<br>
<br>
Selection Inspector panel has been removed. Selection<br>
Inspector was<br>
primarily used to control how selections are labelled, their<br>
font<br>
properties, etc. One can affect these directly from the Find<br>
Data<br>
dialog or<br>
the new Selection Display Inspector which is dockable panel<br>
specially<br>
designed for picking selection labels, label properties, or<br>
showing<br>
the<br>
selection frustum for frustum based selections.<br>

Enhancements for interactions with Plots<br>
<br>
Inspired by plots in matplotlib, individual axes in line and<br>
bar<br>
charts can<br>
now be zoomed by right-clicking and dragging along the x- or<br>
y-<br>
axis. Of<br>
course, one can still drag diagonally to scale both axes as<br>
before.<br>
Also the<br>
the user interactions for making new selections in line<br>
chart view<br>
have been<br>
cleaned up to be more consistent with the render view.<br>
<br>
<br>
Support for Python-based views<br>
<br>
This release adds mechanisms to enable Python developers to<br>
integrate views<br>
that use libraries such as matplotlib for rendering. This<br>
will make<br>
it<br>
possible to take ParaView's charting capabilities even<br>
further. More<br>
details<br>
on how to create such views can be found on Kitware blog<br>
(<a href="http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/588" target="_blank">http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/588</a><br>

ParaView Catalyst: Zero-Copy infrastructure for transferring<br>
data<br>
<br>
A set of experimental interfaces have been added for reusing<br>
simulation<br>
memory in portions of a Catalyst pipeline. A<br>
vtkMappedDataArray<br>
subclass may<br>
be used for attribute/coordinate arrays, and<br>
vtkMappedUnstructuredGrid is<br>
used for dataset topologies. More information can be found<br>
