Description
Tried to use the Diffraction Pattern Overlay in Ovito and got the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 26, in render
RuntimeError: The viewport field has been removed from this deprecated class in OVITO 3.11. Please use the modern ViewportOverlayInterface instead to implement your custom viewport overlay.

Research direction
The issue names the Diffraction Pattern Overlay and the render traceback, but no file or test. Start by locating that overlay and checking its render path against OVITO 3.11's ViewportOverlayInterface. Done means the overlay works without the reported RuntimeError.
