Sample XMGED Displays

click on each image for a larger display

This picture shows the main display. Buttons run down the left. A command input window with scrolling, history, command line editing, and aliases is at the bottom. The drawing area in this example in embedded into the interface above the command window. Menus appear along the top as appropriate for the current state (e.g. solid and object edit menus).


This picture shows the multiview capability of XMGED. By default three ortho views and a 45,45 are shown. The lower right window is the main display (the one that will remain when multiviews is exited). Views can be swapped between windows. During editing, translations, rotations, and scales are active in all windows simultaneously.


This picture shows an entire workstation screen. Here the option was selected of making the drawing area a separate window from the command window. Any number of such windows can be opened. This mode is normally used when two workstations are available side by side. For example, it is common at ARL to dedicate an SGI display for drawing and use a Sun or X Terminal for the user interface portion. Sliders and edit parameter popup windows are also shown.
