Visualization of simulation results in scrolling gif #33

Open jrdegreeff opened 3 years ago

jrdegreeff commented 3 years ago

To get a sense of the functionality that Molly provides, I followed the first example in the documentation. At the end of this example I use the visualize function to use Makie to export the coordinates to a gif. However, the gif that I get scrolls as it animates.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with Molly or something underlying with Makie, but does anyone have any thoughts on this?

That's quite funny. The Makie window is interactive during plotting (which has pros and cons), perhaps you were inputting a mouse or keyboard command that caused this? I can't reproduce on Makie v0.12.0 and Windows.

I was running it in an interactive notebook. Perhaps that could be part of the problem? I don't actually need the visual output for anything, but it does seem like there is a bug somewhere in the chain so I thought it would be worth pointing out.
