GAMGI

GAMGI (General Atomistic Modelling Graphic Interface) is a program to build, view, and analyze atomic strucures such as molecules, crystals, glasses, liquids, etc. It aims to be useful for: the scientific community working in Atomistic Modelling that needs a graphic interface to build input data and to view and analyse output data, calculated with Ab-Initio and Molecular Mechanics programs; the scientific community at large studying chemistry, physics, materials science, geology, etc., that needs a graphic interface to view and analyse atomic structural information and to prepare images for presentations in classes and seminars; teaching chemistry and physics in secondary schools and universities; science promotion in schools, exhibitions and science museums.

Release Notes: Lists of arbitrary objects can now be exported, exactly as any other object currently selected. A Help->Tips entry has been added to the Help menu, covering important advice to increase GAMGI usability. All the information has been udpated for Plane->Create, Plane->Modify, Direction->Create, and Direction->Modify. Plane->Modify and Direction->Modify have been rewritten, and are now working with lists of Planes and Directions, still in a reduced, provisory mode. Several important crystalline structures have been added to /dat/cell/structures.

Release Notes: This release fixes space groups 119, 120, 121, and 122. It solves a problem with interactive handling lists of recursive objects. It fixes new and old bugs in light scaling, Layer->Modify, Plane->Create. It fixes a bug in the ClCs tutorial, and fixes outdated interstice cell data files. XML and info text data files have been created for the most relevant CFC, BCC, and HCP derived crystalline structures. A dialog has been implemented to generate lists of families of crystallographic planes. A unique task identifier has been implemented to, in the future, handle operations such as drawing in a safer way.

Release Notes: Global lists of pre-selected objects can now be rotated, translated, and scaled exactly as before for a local single object. (To grab focus for a list of objects, just press the mouse middle button over the corresponding object class button, in the main menu, and then over the Gamgi button.) All the local and Web documentation for the Object->Copy and Object->Link dialogs was updated.

Release Notes: The GAMGI code now compiles fine with SINGLE_INCLUDES and SEAL_ENABLE enabled, so migrating to GTK-3.0 should be relatively easy. Minor GUI bugs were fixed in all Object->Copy and Object->Link dialogs. Polygon data imported from XML files is now properly checked. The Help files were updated for the Object->Copy, Object->Select, and Object->Link dialogs, and Help->Current and Help->Topic were updated accordingly. XML formats were changed for polygon Planes and line Directions and the dat/ files were updated accordingly. Objects can now be rotated, moved, and scaled in all open windows simultaneously.

Release Notes: Coordination and Voronoi polyhedra can now be exported/imported from XML files. Polygon planes and Line directions can now be exported/imported from XML files, as totally independent objects. Planes and Directions in stereographic projections can now be scaled as with any other object. New functionality was added for Plane->Create, Direction->Create, Group->Create, Plane->Measure, and Direction->Measure. Code involving the ugly concept of dependency was removed for Planes, Directions, and Groups. Bugs were fixed and the code was cleaned up.
