# ''Problem description: On the Mac, after loading frames, by clicking “generate XDS.INP”, the program gives some strange symbol “Ô in XDS.INP. And the more you click “save” button, the more “Ô appeared. This looks like <br>SPACE_GROUP_NUMBER=0 à ! 0 if unknown <br>UNIT_CELL_CONSTANTS= 70 80 90 90 90 90 à .''<br> The problem is due to the “Rich text” format in TextEdit when saving "generate_XDS.INP". It is solved by changing format to Plain in TextEdit, and re-downloading the script. | # ''Problem description: On the Mac, after loading frames, by clicking “generate XDS.INP”, the program gives some strange symbol “Ô in XDS.INP.

# Frames from HDF5-files (*master.h5) are not being displayed: the symptom is that the frames appear to be empty/blank. This means you have not specified the correct "generic library" - see [[XDSGUI#Technical aspects of XDSGUI usage|Technical aspects of XDSGUI usage]]. The fix is: go to (upper left) "Menu"->"Settings"->insert the string "/usr/local/lib64/dectris-neggia.so" as "generic library", or try "/usr/local/lib64/durin-plugin.so" for DIAMOND data. Ask the system administrator for the exact path! If none of these works, leave "generic library" empty and install <code>H5ToXds</code> or <code>hdf2mini-cbf</code> as explained above. | # Frames from HDF5-files (*master.h5) are not being displayed: the symptom is that the frames appear to be empty/blank.
