Graphical User Inferface (GUI) for Skyscraper-ps #3

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The problem is that Skyscraper-ps is a command-line tool for solving puzzles 
that are displayed in a graphical way. The need to have to code the puzzle into 
a text file can be annoying and tired-some thus creating a new GUI for 
Skyscraper-ps will make the tool more useful and allow more people to use the 
tool. Also a GUI opens the door for a way to visually abstract the information 
of the puzzles and can help lead to important patterns. 

The project of making the GUI has already been started and I have decided to 
use Qt as it is open source and cross-platform, making the GUI available to 
every operating system.

Qt GUI has been created that provides a user interface for the user to upload a 
file puzzle or create their own. The user can then solve and partially solve 
the puzzle. I have not created a way to visualize all of the partial puzzles 
yet but if the puzzle is uniquely completable then it will show the solution. 

There are still more features that need to be added but the basic interface is 
ready. Will upload the GUI as a new branch to the google code project.

Skyscraper-ps-gui is now stored under branches\Gui that has the new code for 
the user interface. Also new download for a windows version is available.
