Bug 27 - Release qtpovray for Windows
Bug 28 - Release qtpovray for Ubuntu 20, focal
So, my wife bought me this nifty new box (16 cores 32GB 2TB SSD) with
the condition that I play steam games with her. Hello Windows 10!
I had to get qtpovray running on Windows again (clipka removed
boost::thread) and I made an installer for it.
Some rando facebook messengered me saying he couldn't get the ppa for
Ubuntu 18 to work in Ubuntu 20. So there's that build too.

Hmmm.
I did a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
and It opens the editor, but when I try to render, it just sends output to the
terminal:
PATHS
HOME = /home/oem
SYSCONF = /etc/qtpovray/3.8/povray.conf
USERCONF = /home/oem/.qtpovray/3.8/povray.conf
SYSINI = /etc/qtpovray/3.8/povray.ini
SYSINI_OLD = /etc/povray.ini
USERINI = /home/oem/.povray/3.8/povray.ini
USERINI_OLD = /home/oem/.povrayrc
So, no idea what's going on there... I guess one of the ini files got
overwritten...
(Good to see you here and updating qtpovray. Hope you're doing lots better.
Congrats on the new box :) )

Nope - disregard, it's all good.
I just got home after loading 14 cords of firewood, and had someone talking to
me... "multitasking with a new file while exhausted...."
Works fine. :)

Yes, Now when I see "Mr" I get the earworm for Maurice Ravel's "Bolero"
going in my head.

14 cords!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't even imagine, ... unless there was lots of heavy machinery involved.

The first time I ever processed 10 cords of firewood was over a whole weekend
with 5 other people - chainsaws, log splitter, beer, smoke, on the side of a
mountain - at night. :| (they were insane)
This firewood comes split and packaged in 18 lb bags - 90 per pallet, but they
have to be broken up and re-stacked onto pallets according to truck load and
order number. So, I have an electric ride-on Crown pallet jack to move the
pallets around - but I still have to lift and stack it all by hand.
Got it done with a bit of help in 5 hours. B)
Good times. Strong body, strong mind. ;)
But lemme tell ya- between the lifting and the steering, I can really feel it in
my trapezius...

HAHAHA! I'm not THAT spectacular X-D... qtpovray works nice for me now since I
sometimes have to switch unexpectedly between Windows, Linux, etc, it's good to
have more tools as alternatives. Especially the image preview looks very nice
docked with QT. I don't know yet how to use the breakpoints but this makes me
curious.

I am a first time qtpovray user.
Does the program not use an INI file for settings?
How do I set up multiple include paths?
Thanks.

Under Windows, any current version.
In povray.imi, you need something like this :
Library_Path="C:\Users\<user>\POV Images"
You can have any number of «Library_Path», and they'll be explored in order.
And, in pvengine.ini, lines like this :
[Permitted Input Paths]
1=%INSTALLDIR%
2=%PROFILEDIR%
3=%FONTDIR%
4="C:\Users\<user>\POV Images"
The first 3 lines shoupd already be present. Don't change them.
The paths here must match those added in povray.ini.
The paths in povray.ini tell where to look.
The paths in pvengine.ini tell where you are allowed to look.

How do I specify the INI file in qtpovray? I don't know the correct menu
option.
(On Windows.)

Those should be the same as the regular POV-Ray files.
From POV-Ray for Windows, it's under Tools. The first two options.
You can also find those, along with several other, in the Documents folder.
../Documents/povray3.7/ini/

Um, erm, I guess I didn't really set that up properly.
On my box, it is looking for
SYSINI = C:/Users/dick/Documents\qtpovray\v3.8\ini\povray.ini
but it doesn't exist and I don't care. I guess I should.

A menu to pick whatever INI file I want like in standard POV-Ray for
Windows would be nice to have. Thanks!

I don't see a Tools menu. I only see File, Edit and Help.

Also, how do I change the folder for this stuff to the "Public" user
instead of my admin user. Thanks.

Not normal. There are 8 more menu top items.
The following are missing : Search, Text, Editor, Insert, Render,
Options, Tools and Window.

The installer should have selected your Documents directory. (I did see
it pick admin once in testing, but I thought that was fixed.)
During install, there was a place where it asked what directory to
install to.
qtpovray doesn't really use the register. For povray sdl, the important
thing is the root directory when you created the workspace. For the
help, includes, and inserts, those can be changed in the configure dialog.
I'm working on making the Windows ini usage of qtpovray more consistent
with POV-Ray for Windows.
