.SH DESCRIPTION |
17 |
.I Xshowtrace |
18 |
takes a RADIANCE octree and a picture file |
19 |
and displays it on an X11 window server using |
20 |
.I ximage(1). |
21 |
The picture should have been created from a previous |
22 |
.I rpict(1) |
23 |
or |
24 |
.I rvu(1) |
25 |
calculation using the given octree. |
26 |
Once the image is displayed, the user can use the 't' command of |
27 |
.I ximage |
28 |
to select points on the image to display the ray tree. |
29 |
.I Rtrace |
30 |
then produces a ray tree, which |
31 |
.I xshowtrace |
32 |
will display (in red on a color screen). |
33 |
The |
34 |
.I \-s |
35 |
option slows the display of each ray traced to make it easier to |
36 |
follow the process. |
37 |
The |
38 |
.I \-T |
39 |
option traces rays to light sources, which are normally hidden. |

.SH BUGS |
43 |
If the pointer is moved between the time 't' is pressed and |
44 |
.I xshowtrace |
45 |
starts drawing rays, the rays will be displaced. |
