GUI Composer Feedback, Questions

Roland Welte

GUI Composer is actually working pretty good with the C55x targets. For simple control/status UIs, it can actually replace legacy RTDX, but not when a lot and fast data streaming is required.

Questions:

TextBox - can I modify the display format when updating this widget via a dijit.byId call as, for instance, in

dijit.byId('widget_RxAGC').set('Value', 20*Math.log(newValue/64)/Math.LN10);

this function indends to display a linear Q6 value read from target as a logarithmic float number in dB. But I'd like to limit the TextBox widget for displaying only one digit after the decimal point. Can this be done from within the javascript PropertyChanged function? I could use Math.round but that one rounds to an integer only.

ScatterPlot - can I reduce its dot size? It's too big when displaying lots of points in a constellation diagram of small width and height.

Many thanks,

Roland

Hi Roland,

To fix the number of decimal point, you can assign the result of the equation to a variable and then use the toFixed() function.

i.e var result = x / y;
result = result.toFix(1)

There is currently no UI to change the size of the dot. To change the size of the dot, you can add this line to the scatter plot widget. The element in the array represents the series number.

data-dojo-props="series: [{markerOptions:{size: 1}}]"

Thanks Patrick,

Excuse my ignorance regarding javascript.

How and where exactly do I add this line to my scatter plot widget?

Thanks,

Roland

For the dot size, copy and past the text to the end of the scatterplot widget tag. The text is a bunch of html markup option. You can view the raw html text by clicking on the source button at the top right of the GUI Composer designer window.

here is an example.

Great, that worked.

I guess, I will have to accept the fact that this modification to the source code will disappear whenever I change something of the relevant ScatterPlot widget in the designer ;-) .

Just some clarification; result.toFixed(1), not result.toFix(1)

Thanks again,

Roland
