Dear all,

I'm searching for a possibility to print the list of volumes in a simulation run, something like the "dtree" command in Geant3. So far I found the number of volumes and the number of daughter volumes, but hopefully there's an easier way.

Any hint?

Cheers
Olaf.

Hallo Olaf,

Once you have the geometry in memory, you can call:

gGeoManager->GetListOfVolumes()

This will return a TObjArray of all volumes in the geometry.

regards

Mohammad

Dear PANDARooters,

do we have an up-to-date macro (in svn) to load the PANDA geometry as complete as possible, i.e. all available detector and detector support materials?

Cheers
Olaf.

Hi,
I think the most updated are the macros in macro/pid -> run_sim_tpccombi_XXX.C and run_sim_sttcombi_XX.C

Hi,

another question concerning the volumes: how to get back the geometry parameters of the volumes in the code?
Interactively I can do something like

gGeoManager->GetVolume("FscAbsorber")->GetShape()->InspectShape()

but I found so far no way how to access the printout from this statement inside the code.

Cheers
Olaf.

Hi Olaf,

have a look into PndTools/PndGeoHandling.cxx.

I guess the method GetSensorDimensionsPath is doing what you want.

Cheers,

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

thanks, this method can be easily adapted for other shapes than boxes.

Hi Olaf.

Just when you're at it, add your extension into the PndGeoHandling.

Regards.

Ralf
