Overview
This is a page to discuss assorted muti-view issues.
Close/Destroy Render Modules
- When a user closes a multi-view frame it can do one of two things:
- Close the frame and hide the render module/window.
- Requires means to un-hide a render window.
- User needs to be aware that the render module must be explicitly destroyed.
- Close the frame and destroy the render module.
- User looses any displays he/she setup in that render module.
- Close the frame and hide the render module/window.
MultiView Animation
- When saving an animation, the movie generated should include all the views (or may be provide the user with an option to save all or only the active view).
- The closer it is to WYSIWYG, the better. I.e., the movie has the same window arrangement as what is seen in the main GUI.
- Plots should be saved in some form when doing an animate and disconnect. Ideally, they would look the same as the client side plots.
View Management
- It should be possible to maximize a view.
- It may be possible to pop a view out into a separate window that the user can them maximize/resize etc.
- How do charts get added to the multiview? The mechanism should be the same for a chart or a 3D view.
- Do we allow multiple selection of views? This could make linking the camera easy. The user could select the views they want linked and then use a context menu to link the views.
