labscript-suite-temp-2 / runmanager

runmanager is a graphical user interface (GUI) used to aid the compilation of labscript experiment scripts into hardware instructions to be executed on the hardware. Experiment parameters can be adjusted in the GUI, and lists of parameters can be used to create sequences of experiments, and scan over complex parameter spaces.

Compilation progress and abort #45

Open philipstarkey opened 7 years ago

Original report (archived issue) by Jan Werkmann (Bitbucket: PhyNerd, GitHub: PhyNerd).


There should be some sort of display showing the current progresses on compilation(s). It would also be really handy to abort compilations that have been started earlier (not the last engage)and aren't done.

Especially in the evenings we engage a few sequences of a 1000 shots each for them to run over night. If we realize that something in a script was wrong we need to kill runmanager and start over as abort only affects the last engage not previous ones.

I'm not sure I understand. You should not be able to click engage again while it's still compiling the first sequence, so there should only ever be one sequence to abort

Mh if this should be the case I'll have to check if this 'multi engage' was one of the mods that was made before I joined this group. This is definitly something we use often and I'll add it to this issue if it doesn't work with the mainline runmanager.

Update: ok so I can press engage on the mainline runmanager multiple times just fine und compilations are queued

Update 2: The abort stuff seems to be also addressed in issue #33
