Return to KNOWN.BUGS CVS log

Up to [Development] / inventor

Updated several items.

The problems described below occur on Linux platforms we tested:

1. Applications which depend on overlay planes will not work because the
   current OpenGL drivers on the SGI Visual Workstations 230, 330, and 550
   (http://www.sgi.com/workstations) do not support this feature.

2. When viewing certain models using ivview or SceneViewer, switching the
   draw style to wireframe will cause the lines to be rendered in a different
   color than what is expected.

3. Models which contain colors specified as unsigned integers in hexadecimal
   format in the orderedRGBA field of a SoVertexProperty node will be rendered
   in the wrong colors. data/models/vehicles/x29.iv is one such model which
   demonstrates the problem.

4. Font capabilities used by SoText[23] are currently provided by libFL.a. On
   IRIX, libFL.so is provided in the eoe.sw.gfx and eoe.sw64.gfx subsystems.
   A version of libFL.a compiled for SunOS 5.8 is available in the FTP download
   area. No other platforms are currently supported.

5. In the SoXt viewers, pressing the 'Escape' key will not toggle between 
   viewing and selection modes.

6. apps/samples/widgets/componentTest will crash with a segmentation fault when
   invoked with the 'T' option.

7. Arrowheads drawn as cones in a SoTransformerManip may appear squished.

8. Transparency does not work.
