This is a new installation of Elmer on Linux (Debian 5)
Installation based on the files downloaded from the svn repositories revision 4230
When I click on Run -> Start postprocessor, two windows pop up, the ELMER POST PROCESSING and ELMER POST GRAPHICS,
but both are blank, not even the menu bars and buttons and of course no objects show up.
Here is the defenition of the env variables in my .bashrc
#
# This section defines Elmer env variables
#
export ELMER_HOME=/usr/local
export ELMERGUI_HOME=/usr/local/bin
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
#
The VTK postprocessing is OK
Thanks for any hints or clues, Good Luck to all
ElmerPost - Blank Windows
Re: ElmerPost - Blank Windows
Try exporting the environment variable ELMER_POST_HOME=/usr/local/share/elmerpost
There is now a small utility which checks all environment variables etc. required by ElmerGUI:

Re: ElmerPost - Blank Windows
Thanks Pilgrim, you are a treasure, I added the new export line to my .bashrc and it is working OK.
As I gain more knowlege running Elmer, I see some minor bugs (I would not classify them as hard bugs, but functions that need fine tuning)
Here is an example
now, see what happens when I zoom in and take the shot
File size too big I will try to send them to your email address

Re: ElmerPost - Big files Produced
OK, the attachments to this post are all produced by a utility programme, Take Screenshot (available on my Debian partition), the corresponding ones taken by the save screen function are
1- Too big compared to the same format, the smallest one has 1.2 MB
2- The shots are taken too fast and they include the drop Down menus
Sorry, I cannot upload anyone of them.
This is not a serious bug that would stop Elmer from running, but the save function needs fine tunning
Good luck to all, and thank you for developing Elmer

Should be fixed now in svn (make install && see /usr/local/bin/edf/egini.xml for screen shot quality and delay).
