Marius Kintel edited this page Jul 2, 2014 · 3 revisions

This is a continuous update of the timeline for Google Summer of Code 2014.

Original Proposal: http://brlcad.org/wiki/User:Shainasabarwal/Openscad_UI_Brushup

Editor

See also ScintillaEditor-TODO-list

Further work

  • Improve syntax highlighting color scheme
  • Make it possible to switch editors at run-time (e.g. experimental feature)

Toolbar

First prototype is in place. Further work:

  • Icons: Multiple color schemes?
  • Split into two toolbars for Application actions and Viewer actions
  • Collect the viewpoint icons into a drop-down/combobox icon? (to save space)
  • Add Icons for Preview, Render, Throwntogether?

Color schemes

  • Add some nice color schemes for preview/render (in test3dexport branch)

Layout

The original proposal contained a section Full Screen Editing and Viewing (Detatchable View Pane). Initial experiments have shown that this is tricky to get right across Qt versions and Operating Systems. Suggestion: Leave this out until a Qt expert can develop a good framework.
