[GRASSGUI] wxgrass ready for testing

[Michael Barton]

The new wxPython GRASS interface (AKA wxgrass) is pretty much equal in
functionality to the standard TclTk interface, and so is ready for regular
testing. All items from the TclTk menus are on the wxPython menus. There are
a couple of caveats.

There is not yet a comprehensive georectifying module like there is for
TclTk
The location setting wizard is not yet functional, meaning that you can't
define projections using g.setproj.
You will still need TclTk for NVIZ, v.digit, and d.rast.edit.

There are also some enhancements over the TclTk interface, including:
a prototype attribute data manager (works for interactive mouse queries)
more sophisticated profile analysis module
full command line access to all GRASS commands; d.* commands called from the
command line can display in the wxPython canvas.
easily positioned scalebar and legend
A more compact (and aesthetic) appearance

You can get wxgrass from the GRASS subversion repository at...
<https://grasssvn.itc.it/grasssvn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons/>
Download the entire GUI tarball and follow the easy installation
instructions.

enjoy
Michael

Hi

I use wxgrass actualised every day from.
What you want: informations about most actual svn or mentioned tarbal only

Pity wxPython is not yet in debian, which makes testing more complicated
for me.

For me the ubuntu versions worked without a problem:

http://wxpython.wxcommunity.com/apt/ubuntu/

(For my testing/unstable box, I use:

deb http://wxpython.wxcommunity.com/apt/ubuntu/dapper /

in my /etc/apt/sources.list

Have you decided on a format for addon menu files? I didn't see with a
quick look that it loads any menu files yet. I would like to get an
automated menu builder into the OSX startup so I can have GUI access to
addons in the standard OSX addon dirs.

I won't be able to get to that for a few days, though - MacBook is in the
shop - so I can wait until you get back from your
break/vacation/trip/whatever.

Hi Michael,

great work! I posted some blogposts about wxGRASS at my blog [1],[2] and
I do continue to write about it more.

I would also mention new attribute table manager (also not yet fully
functional) :-)

Have a nice holiday

A few more issues I came upon:

- d.vect.thematic:
- the defaults indicated in the gui, do not seem to be included
automatically in the resulting command string. There are things like
'type=<required>' in the command line in the status bar. I have to
explicitely select each of the items to make the <required> elements go
away?
- I get a gui error windows stating: "Execution failed:
'd.vect.thematic map=***@PERMANENT column=cat --q'" and a message
"You must open a display monitor" in the terminal.

- d.vect.chart: I get a message "Type <themechart> of layer
<***@PERMANENT> is not supported yet", but it actually works
perfectly !

That's all for today.

No decisions on that yet. Just getting the basics up and running. I'm gone
for a week.

Thanks. And thanks for the testing. This is what we need. I'll be away for a

full command line access to all GRASS commands; d.* commands called from
the command line can display in the wxPython canvas.

How do I erase a layer which was displayed via a d.* command ?

d.erase with a color argument. e.g., d.erase white.

This works, but it also erases all the layers which were entered via the
gui. I.e. in spearfish:

- add a vector layer via gui
- display
- type d.vect streams in command line + enter: both vector maps are
displayed
- type d.erase white in command line: both vector maps disappear

I know this is asking for a lot, but would it be possible to distinguish
between the two types of layers (gui and command line) and only erase
the latter when typing d.erase ? Or even better: automatically add a
layer in the gui when you add it via the command line. This would also
allow moving layers up and down the stack independently of how they were
added.

Then again, I don't know how often one would used such a mixed system of
displaying things...

Legend properties. Set in % of screen area like before.

Works great, thanks.

However, I have the mysterious situation that dragging and
double-clicking scalebar or legend sometimes works and sometimes doesn't
(it never worked for me before, then it worked when I tried last time,

"You must open a display monitor" in the terminal.

Pick the checkbox that says for display in GUI.

It's the one in the 'Options' tab saying 'Output legend for GIS Manager
(for scripting use only). Couldn't this be set by default ?

The new wxPython GRASS interface (AKA wxgrass) is pretty much equal
in functionality to the standard TclTk interface, and so is ready for
regular testing. All items from the TclTk menus are on the wxPython
menus. There are a couple of caveats.

My machine: AMD 3800 with 1 GB, ubuntu Feisty.

Hi here are my first suggestions after couple of tests

first some simple bugs I found for now:
- map calculator: starts r3.mapcalculator insted on r.mapcalculator
- list maps (from manage mas and volumes generate errors)
- lack of run quietly and allow overwrite in most dialogs (probably all)
- r.watershed: lack of threshold and stream lenght parameters, generaly
r.watershed cannot be run
- r. lake raster map (DEM cannot be choosen), lack of map in drop-down list

Next some more general:
- What about multichooise in drop-down list?? (for example in g.remove)
in tcltk more than one map can be choosen by ctrl + click. How to do it
in wx gui??
- what about command name in main menu? when mouse move over main menu
in status bar appears adational information about module insted of
command (like is in tcltk). It was better solution because most help
system and viki's are based on modules name (r.thin instead of thin
linear fetures) so finding proper dialogs by browsing menu seems imposible
- well, what about "hard-working" command, like for example r.fill.lake?
This command became all wx gui unavailable, till r.fill lake finish
work (mabe it is only bug with that dialog??).
- r.mapcalculator (can be run from gui prompt) dividing it into two tabs
make this module less funcional, because it require switching between
tabs if you forgot what is A or B map

thats all I found for now

greetings
Jarek

You need version 2.8. (2.8.4 is the most current).

Hi Michael,
great work! I posted some blogposts about wxGRASS at my blog [1],[2] and
I do continue to write about it more.
I would also mention new attribute table manager (also not yet fully
functional) :-)

I did (see below "attribute data manager"). It's very nice and quite
promising.

There is not yet a comprehensive georectifying module like there is
for TclTk
The location setting wizard is not yet functional, meaning that you
can't define projections using g.setproj.
You will still need TclTk for NVIZ, v.digit, and d.rast.edit.
a prototype attribute data manager (works for interactive mouse
queries)
more sophisticated profile analysis module
full command line access to all GRASS commands; d.* commands called
from the command line can display in the wxPython canvas.
easily positioned scalebar and legend
A more compact (and aesthetic) appearance
You can get wxgrass from the GRASS subversion repository at...
<https://grasssvn.itc.it/grasssvn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons/>
Download the entire GUI tarball and follow the easy installation
instructions.
enjoy
Michael
PS: I'll be gone after tomorrow for a week.

Because this is somewhat complicated to do, there are probably some hidden
gotchas in there somewhere (command arguments with spaces will probably fail
currently, for example; we're trying to fix this). But it should work for
90%+ of what people will do.

Moritz,

Try getting rid of the separator in line 218 of profile.py and see what
happens.

AFAICT, all other values in position 4 ARE bitmaps.

That wasn't it. It was the fact that I hadn't updated my GRASS
installation, only the wxgrass gui, and thus I didn't have the
profileopts icon...

So, always update your GRASS installation (or at least etc/gui/icons)
when updating your wxgrass GUI... ;-)

Otto, could this be the reason of your problems ?

This will get simpler when we can move the wxPython into the main GRASS
distribution--so that everything gets updated together--and move GRASS from
the cvs to the svn. My understanding is that these are supposed to be +/-
simultaneous and +/- soon.

full command line access to all GRASS commands; d.* commands called from
the command line can display in the wxPython canvas.

How do I erase a layer which was displayed via a d.* command ?

d.erase with a color argument. e.g., d.erase white.

This works, but it also erases all the layers which were entered via the
- add a vector layer via gui
- display
- type d.vect streams in command line + enter: both vector maps are
displayed
- type d.erase white in command line: both vector maps disappear
I know this is asking for a lot, but would it be possible to distinguish
between the two types of layers (gui and command line) and only erase
the latter when typing d.erase ? Or even better: automatically add a
layer in the gui when you add it via the command line. This would also
allow moving layers up and down the stack independently of how they were
added.
Then again, I don't know how often one would used such a mixed system of
displaying things...

While this is theoretically possible, it's not how d.erase works. This would
entail a completely different command, built within the GUI that could turn
layers on an off or remove them from the layer list. This is what the layer
manager does--and perhaps a good reason to use it.

Works great now !
Any way to change the size of a legend ?

Legend properties. Set in % of screen area like before.

Works great, thanks.
However, I have the mysterious situation that dragging and
double-clicking scalebar or legend sometimes works and sometimes doesn't
(it never worked for me before, then it worked when I tried last time,
now it doesn't again...). Still trying to figure this one out.

Let us know if you get an idea of what is happening here.

(for scripting use only). Couldn't this be set by default ?

This whole script needs to be redone IMHO.

It would be nice if there were some way to set some other options by default
too. For example, I'd really like to have the overlay flag set for rasters.
This would seem to be more normal default behavior than having nulls set to
opaque.
