User documentation for new 90Prime gui #32

Open dsand opened 2 years ago

dsand commented 2 years ago

We need to start documenting Dan's GUI for users. During the 11/22 group meeting, Dan mentioned incorporating help pages directly into the GUI.

Dave and Dan should coordinate on this.

First action item: Dave will set up a time to meet with Dan.

We are meeting 11/23 at noon to discuss GUI.

dsand commented 2 years ago

Discussion at 12/2/2021 meeting suggested we implement 'tool tips' pop-ups for documentation on buttons. And possible add nominal plane values to the appropriate buttons as a tool tip. Adding Phil Daly to the assignee list to help look into this.

It's reasonable for me to build a generic tooltip that can be used for all GUIs. I will do this either before or during the next engineering run.

pndaly commented 2 years ago

Not sure I understand how to use the generic tooltip stuff but I discovered a class called "hover-me" which uses the "title" attribute to provide tooltips. It seems to work OK although the colours are poor on some screen(s). Still, they work so they will do for now.

@dsand started a google doc for documentation of the new GUI. Will take a look at it during the upcoming April 2022 engineering run.
