A widget that is still missing is a label that can change his "caption" or "text" from HAL logic using a pin .
It would be nice just to have a simple way of changing a label text from
On to
Off for instance
When pyVCP was written I don't suppose it was envisaged what people might try to use it for.
It does a very good job of its prime purpose, a fairly simple virtual control panel.
You could trigger pre-defined text changes quite easily, so long as you can find a way to access the widgets text display mechanism.
But passing actual strings to hal pins, would have to use something like byte encoding to pass characters, which might be messy
and complicated.
I have in mind to try and find a good graphical debugger for python, something that will allow me to browse the structures and classes in the same way
that I can in C / C++.
If I can do that, I may make some progress figuring the best way to implement at least pre-defined label change.
