I totally support this idea. The current output format of the [fix ave/chunk](https://docs.lammps.org/fix_ave_chunk.html) command, for example, is clearly impractical and deficient. The text-based files it writes contain only the center...

FYI: Upcoming OVITO release 3.7 will likely support reading & writing the extended data file format proposed in this pull request. [OVITO](https://gitlab.com/stuko/ovito) maintains label maps for atom/bond/angle/dihedral/improper types - like...

I encountered the same problem as you and found a workaround. To load and activate the PySide2 package instead of PyQt5, I run ```python import os os.environ['QT_API'] = 'pyside2' %gui...

This seems to be a duplicate of issue #398.

No, the QTimer and the QSocketNotifier objects are just an internal implementation detail of the ``_notify_stream_qt()`` function, and deleting these C++ "single-shot" objects after they have fired should have no...

I can confirm that, as a developer of a desktop application integrating OSPRay, I was facing the some problem. I unfortunately had to work around this limitation by repeatedly polling...

> FYI, texture wrap modes will be implemented That's great news. For my application I require support for texture coordinate clamping (like OpenGL's ``GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE`` wrap mode). Context: I want to...

Yes, good point, for floating-point types `inf` values should be used as identity values. Here is a link to the logic found in DPC++, which shows that, for the `sycl::maximum`...

I am not an expert on this topic, but a quick experiment with Godbolt shows that the `-ffast-math` option (implying `-ffinite-math-only`) does not break the use of `numeric_limits::infinity()` as identity...
