[GRASS-dev] points with attributes in nviz

It looks like the visualization of points with attributes in GRASS65
(tested on RH linux, compiled from source) and in GRASS64 on MSWindows -
(the latest stand alone installer) is broken.
I tried with nc_spm schools_wake (attributes capacity, mobile units)
and firestations (pumps) and for color the rendered color is black and
size turns to flat, both for Auto and for various values of custom.
It looks like scaling between the actual values > classes > size or
color does not work properly.
Has anybody tried this recently?

This is one of the most popular feature that we do the first week in
class, students get really creative and it is a lot of fun so it would
be great to have it back - it works in GRASS63.
Or just tell me that I am doing something wrong and it works for
everybody else and I will try to figure it out,

I have been testing GRASS64/65 with the new GUI
quite a bit lately (really, really nice) and one thing
I could not figure out is how to size
the legend - if I switch on the -m flag it would still draw the large legend
and mouse is not active - what am I missing there?

I assume that the size of barscale cannot be changed
due to limitations of d.barscale.

The only way I've been able to size the legend is with the at parameter...

generally speaking, overlay functionality in wxGUI needs to be
rewritten (probably task for GRASS7 and it's display architecture).

thanks a for a hint - this works just fine, I forgot about it.

maybe as a reminder of this possibility the text could say
"Placement and size as perc. of screen coordinates (at bottom, top, left, right; 0,0 is b,l)

and the button "Use mouse to size & place legend" should be disabled if possible
to avoid people spending too much time on figuring out how to make it work

Hi,

just to note - if done for 6.x that would be via a wrapper --script.
