Previously, values of ignored keys simply got lost and were
replaced with the ones from from the metadata file. Now this
value is preserved and perhaps, some time in the future, we'll
use this bit of information to to provide the right value when
re-enabling it.
Previously they were dropped only at save time, which is too late
for the GUI. This is mostly for robustness, the case where a
value was removed from config files, but not yet from the GUI.
Shouldn't cause functional change.
So far, values commented out are still ignored, which is why the
used regexp changed. This will hopefully change in the future,
so a configuration can remember disabled values, too.
This solves the problem of choice menus being populated with too
many entries. Before, such menus would pick up values from
board.metadata as well as from the actually loaded file.
File printer.metadata contains no options, so no adjustment
needed there.
The idea is to open the user's email client automatically, so
(s)he has not much more to do than to write a sentence about what
went wrong. As easy as possible!
This is work related to issue #159.
The sensor dialog now checks present values against the list of
presets. This means, if a preset is used and then modified, the
preset choice jumps to <none>. It also means presets are recognized
when modifying a temperature sensor.
This should solve issue #155.
Validation is no longer required, as we now validate in the
creation dialog already. And coloring one item in a two-item list
almost looks like this item were highlighted.
That is, buttons and choices. Coices apparently don't work. Tried
a bit on the table heaters of the sensor and heater lists, but
found nothing which would result in an effect. This control is
not exactly well documented.
This should allow to build on any OS with Arduino IDE installed
and/or with avr-gcc & Co. available trough the normal shell.
Instead of looking at the current platform it's looked at wether
an Arduino IDE path is set. If yes, tools inside there are used.
If no such path is set, just the basename is used to let the OS
search for it ($PATH, etc.).
This is related to issue #152.
Tooltips don't size their box after line lengths, but have their
own idea on how wide to make it. Accordingly one should display
text with newlines only for paragraph delimiters.
This also required adjustments to all the board and printer
description comments. No functional change there.
This should solve issue #148.
Formerly, both names were arbitrary and the user had to know
that only heaters ans sensors with matching names would work
together. Accordingly, temp sensors can have only names matching
those of existing heaters. With the exception of "noheater",
which is also provided.
This kind of solves issue #143.
This looks like nitpicking right now, but further changes shall
provide only already existing heater names for temp sensor names,
so the former have to be defined first. Lead the user to follow
this strategy intuitively.
The problem was, applying tooltips to the radio buttons directly
showed no effect on Linux. While this is likely a bug in wxPython,
we can't change this behaviour.
The solution is to also apply these help texts to the surrounding
StaticBox. This works, even for the radio buttons.
This solves issue #149.
The problem was, that settings distributed in
configtool.default.ini were overridden once a configtool.ini was
created. Accordingly, users upgrading sources wouldn't see changes
in this file.
The solution is to move settings set by the distribution into a
separate file which isn't replaced by a user-saved one.
This should fix issue #142.
In case communications to the bootloader doesn't work as expected,
avrdude often takes many many minutes to recognize this, so it's
very convenient to be able to abort these fruitless attempts.
This should solve issue #131.
The Steinhart-Hart algorithm allows more precise thermistor
tables, but also requires more parameters, which aren't
available for all thermistors. Accordingly, add support for both,
the traditional logic using the beta parameter as well as the new
one.
This also adds thermistor-presets, so users can simply choose
from a pulldown-menu to set their thermistor.
Also, identical thermistors get merged into one table, saving
binary size.
Last not least, a few bugs in this area got fixed.
Usually, all these things go into separate commits, but they were
contributed all in one and separating them is a bit error-prone
for little gain.
This should address issue #130, #134 and #135.
This was previously made obsolete in the firmware code already.
See previous commits.
This should solve issue #138.
In case it ever turns out this was a poor decision, it's likely
a good idea to re-add this to the board configuration instead of
the printer configuration.
