Visualization in a 2D format using GDML can be done with ROOT's OpenGL implementation. solgemc will write out a GDML file of the geometry last run to solgemc.gdml which can then be shown using the geometry facilities in ROOT.
An example script to do this can be found below
ANOTHER OPTION: Directly through GEMC
Another way to create a 2D with WIREFRAME style uses a macro directly with GEMC. After have saved the picture one can then use latex to add grid, text, etc.
- One needs to create a wireframe picture of the SoLID detector. An example of gcard in my geometry database is here (Save As). The macro is here (Save As)
- One will need to just execute the gcard: gemc -gcard=example_PVDIS_2D.gcard
