Pause and finish experiment early buttons #41

Closed taylorlm88 closed 4 months ago

taylorlm88 commented 2 years ago

Right now you can run a full experiment, or Abort the experiment part way through. Aborting the experiment leaves you unable to process the data unless the user wants to write their own code to do it. It might be nice to have an "End experiment early" button which cuts the experiment short, but processes the data collected normally. Additionally, a "Pause" button that would allow you to pause the protocol while doing something, then continue when ready, would be convenient.

Pause button has been implemented. A button to end the experiment early has not.

One update that should be made to the Pause button is that, after it's pressed, the word "pause" does not change. The user presses the pause button again to unpause the experiment, but if the button still says pause, it could make it easy to forget if you have "unpaused" the experiment yet or not.

Both are now implemented with commit 46b16657d49b38bca237a184aeb10fc27d6af24a. The above update to the pause button has been made but is not yet on master as it involves other changes that aren't finished yet.
