This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').
A complete list of options is included below.
-e,--exportfile(fromv3.0.0)
make an image from the fileToRender argument. The format is specified through the extension of the
argument or by the -o fileFormatId=id option (get the id of available file formats with -o list).
-r,--resourcesfile(fromv3.4.0)
load the given resources file on startup instead of looking for a valid resources file in the
standard locations.
-h,--help(fromv3.0.0)
show this little help.
-g,--geometry<w>x<h>(fromv3.0.0)
specify the size of the rendering window, the size argument must have the following format:
<width>x<height> with positive non null values. (Default value: 600x600)
-s,--spin-filefile(fromv3.1.0)
use the given argument as a spin indicator. If this option is used, V_Sim switches automatically
to spin rendering whatever method is specified in the parameter file.
-m,--hiding-modeid(fromv3.2.0)
policy used to show or not null modulus spins possible values are positives. (Default value: 0)
-a,--spin-and-atomic(fromv3.3.0)
always draws atomic rendering on node position in addition to spin rendering.
-c,--colorizefile(fromv3.1.0)
the argument fileToRender must be called, then the given file of the option is used to colorize
the elements.
-u,--use-columnl:m:n(fromv3.1.0)
it specifies the columns to use from the data file for the three colour channels [l;m;n]. Columns
are counted from 1. Use -3, -2, -1 and 0 to use the special values, constant 1, coord. x, coord.
y, and coord. z, respectively.
-d,--color-presetid(fromv3.1.0)
this option can be used with the '--colorize' one or the '--build-map' one. It chooses a preset
color scheme. The id argument is an integer that corresponds to a defined color shade (ranging
from 0).
-t,--translatex:y:z(fromv3.3.0)
a file must be loaded. It applies the given translations to the loaded file. The units are those
of the file. This is available for periodic file formats only.
-x,--expandx:y:z(fromv3.4.0)
a file must be loaded. It applies the given expansion to the loaded file. The values are given in
box coordinates. This is available for periodic file formats only.
-p,--planesfile(fromv3.2.0)
the argument fileToRender must be called, then the given file of the option is parsed as a list of
planes and they are rendered.
-f,--scalar-fieldfile(fromv3.3.0)
the argument fileToRender must be called, then the given file of the option is parsed as a scalar
field and loaded.
-v,--iso-valuesv[:v](fromv3.3.0)
must be used with the '--scalar-field' option, then the given surfaces are built and rendered. If
a name is appended to a value using '#' as a separator, this name is used as the name for the iso-
surface (i.e. 0.25#Blue).
-i,--iso-surfacesfile(fromv3.2.0)
the argument fileToRender must be given, then the given file of the option is parsed and surfaces
are rendered.
-b,--build-mapid[:id](fromv3.4.0)
the argument fileToRender must be given, as the '--planes', '--color-preset' and '--scalar-field'
options used, then the given plane 'id' is replaced by a coloured map using given scalar field and
shade. 'id' ranges from 0. If several ids are given, several maps are built.
--log-scaleid(fromv3.4.0)
select the scaling method to use with gradients (0: linear, 1: log scaled and 2 is zero-centred
log scale), default is linear scale.
-n,--n-iso-linesval(fromv3.4.0)
when positive, val isolines are plotted on the coloured map.
--color-iso-lines[R:G:B]orauto(fromv3.5.0)
when given, generated iso-lines are colourised [R:G:B] or auto with the values. The specific value
'auto' will produced iso-lines in inversed colours. (Default value: [0:0:0])
--fit-to-boxval(fromv3.3.0)
if val is not TRUE, the surfaces use their own bounding box. (Default value: TRUE)
--bg-imagefile(fromv3.4.0)
draw the given image on the background.
-o,--optionid=value(fromv3.3.0)
this is a generic way to give extended option. to V_Sim. As much as -o can be used. Each one store
a key and its value (boolean, integer or float).
-w,--window-modemode(fromv3.5.0)
used to choose the windowing mode. By default the command panel and the rendering window are
separated. In the 'oneWindow' mode they are joined. In the 'renderOnly' mode, the command panel is
not used. (Default value: classic)
--i-seti(fromv3.5.0)
this flag is used to choose the id of the loaded file if the format has support for multiple ids
in one file (see XYZ format or -posi.d3 ones). (Default value: 0)
--value-filefile(fromv3.5.0)
specify an XML file with some value information for V_Sim, like a list of planes, highlighted
nodes... It replaces and extend the previous --planes option.
--map-precisionprec(fromv3.5.0)
Give the precision in percent to render the coloured map. (Default value: 100)
--map-clampmin:maxorauto(fromv3.6.0)
Set the minimum and maximum values for the coloured map rendering. (Default value: auto)
--introspect-dumpfileToDump(fromv3.6.0)
Dump object signals and properties for introspection.
--color-clampcol#min:maxorauto(fromv3.7.0)
Range to adjust values into for colourisation. col specifiesthe column to apply the range to. Use
-2, -1 and 0 for x, yand z directions respectively. (Default value: auto)
--scaling-columnid(fromv3.7.0)
used with a data file (see -c), it specifies the column id to be used to scale the nodes.
