list components vertically in stead of on one line #20

Closed MaxBaeten closed 9 years ago

MaxBaeten commented 9 years ago

I use a large number of orocos components and a vertical list would make it much clearer in that case:

So instead of: component1 [F] component2 [E] component3 [X] component4 [R] component5 [R] component6 [S]

It will look like: component1 [F] component2 [E] component3 [X] component4 [R] component5 [R] component6 [S]

What about putting the run state on the left so that they're all aligned?

MaxBaeten commented 9 years ago

Do you mean as an addition to making the list vertical to put also the state in the front? That would be even better indeed!

[F] compname [E] longcompname [X] verylongcompname [R] shname [R] name [S] superverylongcomponentname

The reason that I closed this request by the way is that I had some troubles compiling from source, problems unrelated to this addition but I thought that it wouldn't be wise to do a pull request on untested code.

Yeah, you should definitely make sure it builds and passes tests, but the idea looks nice.
