Improve Import DMA Channels #11

Open rdecarreau opened 5 years ago

rdecarreau commented 5 years ago

The Import DMA Channel feature is super convenient but has issues. There is no documentation about the format. There should be an "Export DMA Channels" button. Shouldn't this also import/export the Delacing Scheme, dt, Mode, Update Rate and DMA Host Buffer?

You are welcome to update the documentation here: Source\Help\HTML Help Source\DMA Channel.html

You are welcome to add an export.

I would not add the other items because they can change with FPGAs. The export/import is ideally agnostic of FPGA programming.

That makes sense. I will restrict to just the channels themselves. Is the html help the preferred method, or are we moving to a README based help?

eatondan commented 5 years ago

HTML is currently the preferred method. We are going to move to Readme in the future but aren't there yet.
