Closed this issue · 4 comments
Greetings
Tried to use the command line to export some pov files and i am getting a seg fault on ubuntu 18.04
LDVIew is build from source without any errors and works fine when i enter the GUI to export the files
I run GDB and here is what i get
gdb --args /usr/bin/LDView 3010.ldr -ExportFile=3010.pov

could it be similar to #14 ?
Forgot to mention version is 4.4 cloned from here
I strongly suspect this is due to the Qt changes that generally broke snapshot saving. You should be able to perform POV exports using the command line-only OSMesa version of LDView. So, while it is possible that we'll be able to fix this, using the OSMesa version is probably advisable as a workaround.
Thanks for the quick reply and all the effort you put into this.
Yes the OSMesa works without a problem. Have seen other references in the GitHub issues and tried it out.
One thing that still haven't figured out is how to use the existing LDView config on the OSMesa version.
i.e -IniFile= /home/stelios/.config/LDView/LDView.conf does not work and the example on the instructions is not clear on how to add POV ray exporter specific configs
Tested latest source code on Ubuntu 18.04 build with Qt4.8.7 and and command line export works file.
@skoroneos please check and confirm.
