Vector settings not pulled from robot #13

Open xanathon opened 4 years ago

When connecting to a robot a parameter windows shows up where you can set metric system, location, etc.

Here the current settings from the robot are not pulled and shown, the dropdowns are always default ones.

Aside from that a lot of settings are missing (language flavor, time 12/24 setting etc.), but I guess that is because of the obvious alpha state of the software?

In the current state, it updates and authenticates the bots with only a couple server requests. I believe it is part of the escape pod they are going to release. Data like that needs to be pulled from the jdocs server and not the robot (because this assumes that the bot is being setup). I prefer to select manually, but I one up this.

In the app the preselected settings are shown instead of default values, I think the web setup should also do that.

Especially from a UX standpoint, since the way it is now you never know if the correct settings were selected and set before or not.
