Add loaded icon for hardware modules #23

Closed BGNorton closed 6 years ago

BGNorton commented 6 years ago

What is affected by this bug?

The home screen of the Qudi GUI.

When does this occur?

All the time.

Where on the platform does it happen?

How do we replicate the issue?

open up the hardware tab of the home screen

Expected behavior (i.e. solution)

have a simple icon/indicator that indicates whether a hardware module has been loaded in or not.

Other Comments

This will stop confusion about whether a module has been loaded which ultimately throws errors.

Good idea @BGNorton

@latchr suggested that we could 'grey out' the reload module button if the module has not been loaded

latchr commented 6 years ago

There is currently a text string g under the load button which changes from "not loaded" to "idle" (and even to "active" or something when the module is executing actions). This is not super clear and I like the suggestion of some visual icon/indicator.
