error in running exampleB1

Reni-masterhouse commented 2 years ago

I am using geant4_pybind with Mac OS 10.15.7 and python 3.9. After installing it, I tried to run examples to check the correctness. After running exampleB1, I get

Available UI session types: [ tcsh, csh ]

Could you please provide any help? Thank you!

Hi,

the prebuilt OSX wheels don't contain a default OpenGL viewer, that's why you encountered this error. If you need OpenGL visualization the only option currently is to compile Geant4 and the bindings yourself using the appropriate CMAKE options:

https://geant4-userdoc.web.cern.ch/UsersGuides/InstallationGuide/html/installguide.html#buildandinstall

The reason for this is that the OpenGL visualization options for OSX are limited and I wasn't sure whether using QT would work with the 60 mb limit for wheels on PyPi.

HaarigerHarald commented 10 months ago

The prebuilt wheels now contain Qt5 visualization.

wow…thank you for still improving this project
