Dear VMD community,

I could install the latest VMD on Catalina using:
./configure MACOSXX86_64 FLTKOPENGL FLTK TK ACTC IMD LIBTACHYON COLVARS TCL PTHREADS SILENT LP64
However, as explained in another post, there are several issues when I start VMD:
1) The molecule appear in the lower-left corner and there is not way to make it occupy the entire scene
2) When I try to save coordinates, typing a name such as ‘mol’ gives ‘mmooll’ (all letters are doubled)

So, I was trying other architectures hoping to get these issues solved. I tested the following configurations:
./configure MACOSX FLTK TK ACTC IMD LIBTACHYON TCL PTHREADS SILENT
./configure MACOSX MESA FLTK COLVARS IMD TK TCL SILENT PTHREADS LIBTACHYON ACTC

but both ended up with the same error:
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make: *** [vmd_MACOSX] Error 1

Below, I report a few lines of what’s before the error, in both cases

  "_fl_no", referenced from:
      MainFltkMenu::vmd_main_window_cb(Fl_Widget*, void*) in MainFltkMenu.o
      quit_cb(Fl_Widget*, void*) in MainFltkMenu.o

Any help would be really appreciated.
