Proposal : Slider support for FloatItem

A small enhancement to the SliderWidget introduced in version 1.3.2 to add 
support for FloatItem.

A step parameter is introduced to FloatItem which is used by SliderWidget to 
compute the float value. 

SliderWidget remains compatible with IntItem as well.

Inheritance issue with custom dataset items

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run the attached file in ipython
2. A gui will show up. Enable on of the two check boxes to enable editing of 
the items in the corresponding group.
3. Click OK.
4. Reopen gui in ipython (> gp.edit()  )
5. Both subgroup are editable although only one of them was enabled.

Ideally I would expect that the gui remains consistent before and after closing 
the gui for the first time. This I believe is because both parameter items 
belong to the same class and share class variables. So when one of them gets 
edited, the variable is also effected on the other instances of the same class.


I have tried this on Ubuntu 12.10 with guidata v1.5.1


I do not want to explicitly instantiate different variables for each item as in 
your example in the documentation.

http://packages.python.org/guidata/examples.html#data-item-groups-and-group-sele
ction


I would like to instantiate a gui with multiple objects of a user defined type. 
How do I do that ? Am I missing something fundamental here in my implementation 
?

Thanks and regards,
Sadique

is there a stable userconfig lib?

I wanted to use the userconfig lib that I found mentioned in the guidata 
documentation.
It is stated that "It is the exact copy of the open-source package `userconfig` 
(MIT license)."  So I tried the example from the open source version 
(http://code.google.com/p/userconfig/downloads/list) but it did not work with 
the version in guidata.  

Some searching revealed that there are at least 3 versions of userconfig, all 
incompatible: the google version is 1.0.9, but there is a userconfig 1.0.13 in 
spiderlib and a version 1.0.7 in guidata (of WinPython-64bit-2.7.4.1).
It would seem that 1.0.13 is the most recent, but its copyright info dates it 
at 2009, while the 1.0.7 version mentions 2012.  Only the google version has an 
example of usage.  

Is the version in spyder maybe specific to spyder, while the version in guidata 
-or at google- is intended for general use?  Will there always be a divergence 
or will there be a convergence of all versions?

Is there already a version that is future safe?  Can it be used without having 
to include a copy of an old userconfig later?  And is it possible to provide an 
example of usage for that version (like for the google version)?

Radio buttons?

Are there any plans to implement a radio button group?  Yes, it's similar to a 
ChoiceItem, and I can get by with that for now.  Still, the nice thing about a 
group of radio buttons is that all of the options are always viewable to the 
user and can be chosen with one click instead of two.

Problem with "FilesOpenItem" data item

Using guidata 1.6.1.

I try to select a file that has a ' character in it using 
guidata.dataset.dataitems.FilesOpenItem. The selected file is not seen as valid 
by guidata (text area remains orange).

Modifying the "from_string" method of FilesOpenItem in order to change the line

"if value.endswith("']"):"

to

"if value.endswith("']") or if value.endswith('"]'):"

seems to solve the problem

FloatItem slider doesn't retain position

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run the code attached in issue #24 in Ipython
2. Change the value on the sliders and close the window
3. Reopen the window with gp.edit()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The sliders should ideally retain their position reflecting the value of the 
FloatItem, but they seem to always initialize at MIN every time the window is 
initialized.

guidata 1.4 and disthelpers changes

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I can't make functionnal dictedit and arrayedit with py2exe distribution. 
DO YOU HAVE SOME ADVISE ABOUT SETUP OPTIONS in order to use arrayedit and 
dictedit ?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


I updated guidata from 1.3 to 1.4, but no change on arrayedit and dictedit with 
py2exe.
So I tried to use disthelpers in order to resolve a probable problem in setup 
options in py2exe. But disthelpers completly change from 2.3 version

- No doc at all for disthelpers, apart a basic example 
- disthelper seems to be unachieved. DO YOU PLANE some improvements ?
- setup() method support only ONE file script ?
- disthelpers is supposed to support py2exe, but I doesn't. So I try to fix the 
setup() method by adding argument library (see attached file)

IS DISTHELPERS A GOOD IDEA TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM OF ARRAYEDIT AND DICTEDIT ?

request: persistent settings

It would be nice if userconfig (or something similar) is integrated in guidata 
behind the scenes.  This would mean that all GUI settings are automatically 
saved in an ini file, so that they become persistent: they will be 
automatically restored at the next run.

the expected output is to be able to move from the gui window to the plot 
window (and to use its features). when the command of plot comes before the 
command of prm.view/edit i cannot move from the gui window (which is on the 
"front") to the plot window. When when it comes after the gui window, the gui

guidata et matplotlib

Bonjour,

Y a t il un moyen de contourner les 2 limitations que je rencontre en 
générant un graphique matplotlib depuis une interface guidata :

1. l'utilisateur final doit sortir de l'interface guidata pour prendre la main 
sur le graphique.  Dommage, car ma façon de lancer l'interface guidata dans 
une boucle infinie est rendue inutile (simple et pratique pour éviter de 
relancer l'interface à chaque run) cf. test.py

2.  une petite classe permet de rendre draggable un texte matplotib, à 
condition que l'application reste active (cf. test3.py). 
(http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Drag_n_Drop_Text_Example). La classe 
est donc inopérante si je suis obligé de sortir de l'interface guidata. Je 
supprime donc la boucle infinie  (cf. test2.py), mais le texte n'est toujours 
pas draggable à cause semble t il de l'instruction guidata.qapplication(), 
rendue nécessaire par guidata.

Merci pour cette librairie qui permet de se concentrer sur les algorithmes, 
tout en bénéficiant d'une interface GUI formidable.

Suggestions for enhancing FileOpenItem, FileSaveItem, FileDirectoryItem classes

1. Include a "notempty" parameter, allowing to control if the field can be 
empty or not

2. Include an "icon" parameter, allowing to set an icon different from the 
defaults provided

3. Modify the "help" parameter, allowing to entirely override the messages 
presented by default

ButtonItem and DirectoryItem do not work together

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a DataSet with a ButtonItem (the callback need do nothing) and a 
DirectoryItem (or another Item with a field and a button - File items etc)
2. Change the value of the DirectoryItem
3. Click the button

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
After clicking the button, nothing should have changed. What happens is that 
the DirectoryItem's value reverts to its original value.

This is because ButtonItem.clicked() calls widget.get() on each widget, the 
directory widget is reset with the DirectoryItem's value. This has not been 
changed, only the line edit's text has been set.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows XP, guidata 1.3.1

Problem updating a BoolItem

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I'm embedding a dataset within a simple application using a DataSetEditGroupBox 
and I'm updating the values of the dataset as I choice entries in my 
'database'. One field is a BoolItem and I've found that I couldn't set it to 
False after it was True. 

So in pseudo code 

class test(DataSet):
   boolitem = BoolItem("t/f")


class panel(QWidget):
   def __init__(self):
       QWidget.__init__(self)
       ...
       self.dataseteditgroupbox = DataSetEditGroupBox("event", test)
       ...

   def somemethod(self): #update values in dataset
       ...
       self.dataseteditgroupbox.dataset.boolitem = False #this doesn't work
       self.dataseteditgroupbox.get()

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using version 1.6.1-3 on python2.7 on win32.

Please provide any additional information below.
I've found that the issue is due to the get() method of the CheckBoxWidget 
class in qtitemwidget.py. So changing the method to this fixes my problem

class CheckBoxWidget(AbstractDataSetWidget):

    ...

    def get(self):
        """Override AbstractDataSetWidget method"""
        value = self.item.get()
        if value:
            self.checkbox.setChecked(True)
        else:
            self.checkbox.setChecked(False)

I'm quite new to guidata so although I think that this is a bug, it could also 
be that I'm not using it the right way.

CX_Freeze and guidata/guiqwt works on windows not on Linux

               script="test.py", target_name='test.exe')
        dist.add_modules('guidata', 'guiqwt')
        # Building executable
        dist.build('cx_Freeze')

    if __name__ == '__main__':
        create_executable()




What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The executable gets built, but when attempted to run. It gives the error

    OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/home/user/tmp/dist/library.zip/guidata/images'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
guidata 1.5.1 Linux

In windows this works fine!

I traced the problem to the lines

    if osp.isfile(parentdir)

in configtools.py file.

The GUI's appear,but there does not seem to be any communication between the UI 
controls. Changing one will not affect any of the others. Slider will not 
change the text box value, etc. (as it does using PyQt).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Guidata V1.6.1
Pyside 1.2.2
Python 2.7.3

Tested under Win7 and Kubuntu 12.04LTS - same result.

wrong handling of None values in py3compat.py:to_text_string

I had some problems with the automatic checking of text related DataItems in 
guidata 1.6.1. 

Looking inside the code I found that the function to_text_string returns 
u"None" for a None input value. This results in valid empty text fields with 
a missing default value.

To reproduce this problem, just create a dialogue 

   class Parameters(dt.DataSet):
        x_user_name = di.StringItem("Full Name", notempty=True)
        y_user_name = di.StringItem("Full Name", notempty=True, default="")

   Parameters().edit()

DirectoryItem used in a DataSetEditGroupBox fails to use the default value for the directory chooser

What steps will reproduce the problem?

using a DirectoryItem within a dataSet within a DataSetEditGroupBox.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

From the code and my understanding I expect that the default directory which 
shows up when clicking the button in a DataSetEditGroupBox should be generated 
from the default string given to the DirectoryItem. This is not the case.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Rolling update of Debian Testing. python-guidata 1.3.1-1 (debian)

Please provide any additional information below.

The problem can be easily fixed by changing os.path.basename to os.path.dirname 
in in the dname=... statement in the function DirectoryWidget.select_directory 
in the file qtitemwidgets.py. (OK, creating a diff/patch file would have been 
easier than describing how to fix it :-)
