Interactive visualization of CASM output.
[,] - Scale layer view
-, = - prev/next layer in perspective view
O, P - Temperature prev/next
L, ; - Chempot A prev/next
. , / - Chempot B prev/next
Q, W - Preset prev/next
B, V - Perspective rotate step up/down
A, S - Start/Stop sequence
Shift-A, (Shift-)S - Start/stop record
SPACE - Toggle GUI visibility
The casm_viewer.toml file is used to configure the application. There you can set system specific paths and dataset paths and settings. pythonScriptsPath - The path to the python scripts folder for this project pythonBinary - The python binary to be sued for scripts
View options:
sliceBackground - Background color for slice (RGBA)
fontSize = 32.000000000000000
background - General bakcgroun color (RGBA)
Make sure you run:
git submodule update --init --recursive
To get all the needed submodules.
You can then use the run.sh script inside a bash shell (on Windows, Linux or macOS) or open the CMakeLists.txt file in an IDE that supports cmake.
TINC requires MetCDF4 to build. We provide the build_deps.sh script in external/tinc for building on Linux and OS X. This script requires the libcurl-dev pacakge on Linux. On Windows, the installation of NetCDF from the official installers will be detected if it was installed in the default location.
You will need python3, numpy and netcdf4 installed and accessible. You can set the python to be used in the Help tab.
For anaconda on Windows use:
c:/Users/YourName/anaconda3/Scripts/conda.exe run -n base python
There is a bug in anaconda that will prevent it from running if the path to conda has spaces. In this case, you can install another version of python like the one provided in the Microsoft Store and install numpy in a shell through pip.
