Hi Jeremy, I tried to edit HPSECalCommissioning's compat.xml by changing <layout beamgap="20.0*mm" nx="46" ny="5" dface=“ecal_dface"> to <layout beamgapBottom="20.0*mm" beamgapTop="50.0*mm" nx="46" ny="5" dface="ecal_dface"> but JAS+Wired doesn’t show the detector at all after that. And I didn’t get any log messages. Any ideas? -Nathan On Feb 2, 2015, at 17:31, McCormick, Jeremy I. <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have committed a change to lcsim so that the ECAL top and bottom beam gap sizes can be set in the compact.xml file. > > See this resolved JIRA item > > https://jira.slac.stanford.edu/browse/HPSJAVA-388 > > The parameters are set like > > <layout beamgapBottom="40.0*mm" beamgapTop="20.0*mm" ... > > > See this file for a complete example > > lcsim/trunk/detector-framework/src/test/resources/org/lcsim/geometry/subdetector/HPSEcal3Test.xml > > And you can test this with > > cd lcsim/trunk/detector-framework; mvn test -Dtest=HPSEcal3Test > > I verified that it looks right in the output Heprep file in JAS3 and also in the Geant4 visualization, where I saw the top and bottom gaps had different sizes from the parameters. > > You will probably want to verify this separately anyways as a crosscheck, if you plan to use this for reconstruction or simulation. > > This doesn't solve the problem of being able to align the ECAL in all generality. That is a lot more complex to implement and will require writing a new detector model that is structured differently than the current one. (I added a JIRA item for this, but I don't know when we will be able to do it!) > > --Jeremy > > ######################################################################## > Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list > > To unsubscribe from the HPS-SOFTWARE list, click the following link: > https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=HPS-SOFTWARE&A=1 ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the HPS-SOFTWARE list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=HPS-SOFTWARE&A=1
