Restructure file import, implement file format dialog #209

Open ab5424 opened 6 months ago

ab5424 commented 6 months ago

To do after #172 has been merged.

Why does this have a "gui" label?

ab5424 commented 6 months ago

Because we need a dialogue window to select the file format if the automatic determination can't detect it.

adrianusler commented 5 months ago

Could you specify what has to be done? I forgot.

ab5424 commented 5 months ago

It would be good if we had only one file import dialogue (instead of open file and read poscar) where the importer tries to determine the format from the extension/filename and if that is not successful or the import fails for another reason a window opens where you can select the file format manually.
