Move traces keyboard commands unresponsive in concatenated sweeps/Event Detection #90

Open Sverreg opened 3 years ago

Sverreg commented 3 years ago

The move traces keybindings (Ctrl/Shift + -> or <-) do not work in concatenated sweeps in Stimfit 0.16.0 on Ubuntu 20.04. They work before the sweeps are concatenated, or if other commands that create a new window are used (eg. filtering).

I tested solutions from #33, spamming the magnifying glass or selecting the trace window with the cursor does not fix the issue. The traces window is highlighted when I click it.

If I create a new window (of a selected concatenated sweep), the keyboard commands work in the new window, great! But, when I run event detection it breaks again. It looks like the issue here is that events are always selected, not the Traces window (see orange highlight around the leftmost event-box in screenshot) when the traces window is clicked. Running Erase All Events restores keyboard move functionality. Creating a new window still works, but the events are not copied so that doesn't help much.

Testing this on Stimfit 0.16.3 on Linux, the issue can be reproduced with the following steps:

  1. Select severall or all sweeps, and
  2. Menu->Edit->"Concatenate Selected Sweeps (multiple channels)" then the scaling keys +/+ and +/- do not do anything.

Interestingly, when selectiong
Menu->Edit->"New Window with ... " -> and any of the 3 options, the the scaling keys +/+ and +/- are usable. However, only the data of a single channel is shown
