Visual changes to version 1.3

damercer commented 3 years ago

Thanks for suggesting these changes.

Since the default colors can (should be changed) by users in the alice_init.ini your suggested color changes will not be included as the defaults in master source code. User by user preferences can not be accommodated in the official release packages.

The other visual changes will be considered.

Changes to widget locations in the UI screens are problematic in that it will require all the graphics in the User Guides be changed and possibly confuse existing users and force users to likely require changes to Lab documents.

Hi: Please remember you are submitting pull request that fundamentally change the master copy of the source code through this means. If you just want to show the developers some personal changes you have made, then post a plain issue listing the changes / enhancements that you are suggesting, and include a link to your personal copy of the source code.

I can't merge pull requests like these (with the same name as the "golden" source file) in to the master copy that will be distributed to the wider user base.

As to your latest specific ideas in this request. You just need to be patient and wait for the next official release which will implement an option to combine scope and AWG controls into the main window with the XY plot in a separate window. The first pass at a method to localize the language through an optional configuration file will also be included.

Please limit pull requests to fatal bug fixes.
