perspective faceplates #205

layout of faceplate (same as flintium vision or taken from new version library)
popups should be resizable ? (Flex container)
create some popups for start discussion

jlbcontrols commented 3 years ago

My opinion:

Faceplates: We should try to keep the design similar to Vision, but change as needed to keep the Perspective implementation clean.
Overview Graphics: Perspective is not as well suited to the P&ID style, so we should probably rethink the requirements for those.
Scaling/Resizing: This feature would be great for different screen sizes, but will be more challenging to implement. I could go either way on this.
Initial Popup Design: @ArnaudDeClerck I'll assign this issue to you, I'm looking forward to seeing the first round of design for Flintium Perspective popups!

Ok:

have you a folder with all the icon used in vision (Nav tab, bypass, ..)
With coordinate container with van draw p&id is just that not easy as Vision
For me display object button should stay at the same size but that we can use it in multiple size of popup.

Unfortunately, the icon files are all buried in the Vision templates. They are mostly standard material design icons, which you can download here. Setting up the icons may be a big task in itself.

I'm open to adapting the design so its best for Perspective. Let me know what you think it best for layout/container/structure once you've started development. Possibly post an example screenshot or push to a development branch, and we can discuss. To me, the most important thing is that templates are re-usable, so the amount of templates doesn't become too large & unmanageable.

Base of faceplate main: The faceplate is flex view, this view have two flex container (One for Tab navigation and one for content). This allow to make the popup resizable. The button are just coordinate view since they will stay at the same size, but they are allowed to resize also since i've put the mode in percent (instead of fixed). For the project hierachy, i've try to stay as close as possible to the vision one. But instead of using fixed color (for selected/unselected or enable/disable) i've use style class.

I will try now to make some content view and see how flexible i can go.

Regards

This is looking great, and I agree with your strategy. I'm looking forward to trying out the faceplate!

@ArnaudDeClerck were you able to make some progress on the Perspective faceplates?

ArnaudDeClerck commented 2 years ago

Hi @jlbcontrols,

Unfortunately, no. Some big project one in perspective (so i've learn new things that can be useable for this). I think i could start back beginning of march.

Curious is there was any progress on this? I'm moving forward on designing plantpax faceplates for perspective as well and found the flintium vision templates to be a good jumping off point.
