Re: closed loop control GSoC Design Question

 hi Michael:

 Matheus got it to work but he said:

"Anyway, I tried to use the uiXXX functions on Octave. Even though I could plot a function, the push buttons didn't appear on the screen. In my opinion, if these functions are too unstable, we should use pure Qt to build the GUI."

any ideas?

Doug

Michael Goffioul, can you make it work????

I've tried on my classdef branch, but it appears it doesn't work. Though I could have sworn I've seen it working before with FLTK.

 

I found a report that said it was broken in 3.6.4 and default.

I  also asked on IRC and was told that it did not work on 3.6.4 and default.

 

Please help, we need this to work.

Am I doing something wrong?

I don't think so.

If you have the time, you could give QtHandles a try. This should give you a better idea of what you can do with uiXXX functions.

Michael.

How do I try qtHandles???

If you want to try it, it's probably better to use octave from default branch. You then download from [1], compile and install it with the simple install.sh script provided (it assumes octave is in your PATH). You enable it with "graphics_toolkit qt". You can run it from the GUI, but if you want to run it from command-line mode, you need to use the octave-qt wrapper provided (it creates the requires QApplication object to run a Qt app).

Note that I didn't try to compile it recently, so it also very likely it won't compile out of the box. I'll give it a try later today and fix compilation if it doesn't work anymore.

I just tried to compile it and it's still working fine. I've updated the README file with relevant information.

Michael.
