GLVis is an OpenGL tool for visualization of finite element meshes and
functions.

For building instructions, see the file INSTALL. Copyright information and
licensing restrictions can be found in the file COPYRIGHT.

When started without any options, glvis starts a server which waits for a socket
connections (on port 19916 by default) and visualizes any received data. This
way the results of simulations on a remote (parallel) machine can be visualized
on the local user desktop. On Mac OS X, start the server with 'glvis -mac'.

GLVis can also be used to visualize a mesh with or without a finite element
function (solution), as in 'glvis -m cube.mesh3d'. It can run a batch sequence
of commands (GLVis scripts), or display previously saved socket streams. For a
complete list of command line options, type 'glvis -h'.

Depending on the data type, variety of manipulations can be performed by using
the mouse and by typing (case sensitive) keystrokes in the GLVis window. Here is
a partial list of the available functionality. Some of these keys can also be
provided as input, using the '-k' command-line option and the 'keys' script
command.


Mouse functions
===============
Left       - Rotate the viewpoint
Middle     - Translate the viewpoint

Advanced key commands
=====================
f - Change the shading type (the way the elements and mesh are drawn)
    The options are: -> one triangle / quad per element with a constant normal
                     -> one triangle / quad per element with normals averaged
                        at the vertices
                     -> multiple triangles / quads per element, also allowing
                        for the visualization of discontinuous functions and
                        curvilinear elements (use i/I to control subdivisions)

i/I - Control element subdivisions
      there are two subdivision factors: -> element subdivision factor s1
                                         -> boundary subdivision factor s2
I - Cycle through the "subdivision functions", (prints a message in the
    terminal when changed)
    The options are: -> Increase subdivision factor:      s1 += s2
                     -> Decrease subdivision factor:      s1 -= s2
                     -> Increase bdr subdivision factor:  s2++
                     -> Decrease bdr subdivision factor:  s2--
i - perform the current "subdivision function"

A - Turn on/off the use of thicker lines
b - Display/Hide the boundary in 2D scalar mode
L - Turn on/off logarithmic scale
\ - Set light source position (see Right+Shift)
* - Zoom in
/ - Zoom out
[ - Enlarge the bounding box (relative to the colorbar)
] - Shrink the bounding box (relative to the colorbar)
( - Shrink the visualization window
) - Enlarge the visualization window
. - Start/stop z-spinning (speed/direction can be controlled with '0'/'Enter')

w - Toggle clipping (cutting) plane in 2D (see also 'i' in 3D)
y/Y - Rotate clipping plane (theta) in 2D
z/Z - Translate clipping plane in 2D

` - Toggle a ruler, with initial origin at the center of the bounding box. The
    origin can be later moved with '~'.
    The options are: -> none
                     -> coordinate axes lines
                     -> coordinate axes planes
~ - Enter new ruler origin

k/K - Adjust the transparency level (works only when texture is off, see '!').
      The balance of transparency can be further adjusted with ',' and '<'.

! - Toggle the use of (1D) texture (smooth interpolation of colors)
    The options are: -> use discrete texture, the number of colors used depends
                        on the current palette
                     -> use smooth texture (interpolated from current palette)
                     -> do not use texture; colors are set at the vertices;
                        color interpolation may be bad

F3/F4 - Shrink/Zoom each element towards its center, to better visualize the
        different element shapes
F5 - Change the range and number of the level lines
F6 - Palette menu
F7 - Change the minimum and maximum values

Right+Ctrl  - Object scaling (see also '[' and ']')
Left+Alt    - Tilt
Right+Shift - Change light source position (see '\')

                     -> show vectors as displacement
                     -> show vector field; vectors are uniformly scaled;
                        the color varies with the magnitude (or the current
                        "vector-to-scalar function", see keys u/U)
                     -> show vector field as above, but the vectors are scaled
                        proportionally to their magnitude

    changed).
    The options are: -> Increase the vector subdivision factor
                     -> Decrease the vector subdivision factor
                     -> Cycle through "vector-to-scalar functions" choices:

                        -> curl:                     curl(v)
                        -> anisotropy in grad(v)
