DESCRIPTION

17       The gflux program draws a colourfull animated rippling square  rotating
18       in 3D space.
19

OPTIONS

21       gflux accepts the following options:
22
23       --window
24               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
25
26       --root  Draw on the root window.
27
28       --window-id number
29               Draw on the specified window.
30
31       --install
32               Install a private colormap for the window.
33
34       --visual visual
35               Specify  which  visual  to use.  Legal values are the name of a
36               visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of  a  specific
37               visual.
38
39       --squares num
40               Specifies the size of the grid in squares. default 19
41
42       --resolution num
43               Specifies the wireframe detail of the squares. default 4
44
45       --mode mode
46               Specifies  the  draw  method: wireframe; solid (meaning a solid
47               colored surface); light (same as solid, but with  lighting  ef‐
48               fects);  checker  (a  texture-mapped  checkerboard pattern); or
49               grab (meaning grab an image to manipulate.)
50
51               When grabbing images, the image will be grabbed from  the  por‐
52               tion  of the screen underlying the window, or from the system's
53               video input, or from a random file on disk, as indicated by the
54               grabDesktopImages,  grabVideoFrames, and chooseRandomImages op‐
55               tions in the ~/.xscreensaver file; see xscreensaver-settings(1)
56               for more details.
57
58       --wireframe
59               Same as "-mode wire".
60
61       --flat num
62               0 for smooth shading 1 for flat. default 0
63
64       --speed num
65               Specifies  speed  of  ripples flowing over the surface. default
66               0.05
67
68       --rotationx num --rotationy num --rotationz num
69               Specifies the speed of rotation of the surface in these axis
70
71       --waves num
72               Specifies the number of ripple centres at any one time.  Values
73               should be greater than 1.  default 3
74
75       --waveChange num
76               Specifies  the  duration  of  a ripple centre.  after this they
77               fade away to be reborn elsewhere with  a  different  frequency.
78               default 50
79
80       --waveHeight num
81               Specifies the height of ripples on the surface. default 1.0
82
83       --waveFreq num
84               Specifies the maximum frequency of ripples. default 3.0
85
86       --zoom num
87               Specifies  the  size  of  the viewport. Smaller values fill the
88               screen with rippling surface. default 1.0
89
90       --delay microseconds
91               How long to pause between frames.  Default is  20000,  or  0.02
92               second.
93
94       --fps   Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
95

ENVIRONMENT

97       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
98
99       XENVIRONMENT
100               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
101               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
102
103       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
104               The window ID to use with --root.
