Topdrawer is not working

Asked by sudesh gupta

In my desktop, I installed madgraph and there I didn't required to add path topdrawer in "input/mg5_configuration.txt " . I was getting .top and .eps files. Now in my laptop, I'm only getting .top files. I also added path of topdrawer in mg5_configuartion.txt but I'm not getting .eps files. Why is it so and how should I resolve this problem?

Thank you

Hi,

In principle, we have finish our transition out of top-drawer since more than 6 years ago.
So you should not need topdrawer anymore.
The issue with topdrawer is than since a long time the only solution was to install via pre-compiled binnary.
However that binary was only compatible on 32 bit bit computer (and those day computer are all 64 bit).

If you install the outdated MadAnalysis4 (which is not supported and therefore not recommended), then you will indeed need to find a way to have top-drawer install on your machine (I fail to do that on my machine).
If you are not using MA4, then I would need more details.

Cheers,

Olivier
