Nice idea, but it still says "bad character"

I'll have to add a HAL QProgressBar... then you can connect it in your postgui.hal file.

Can stuff like "view_dro_cb" be a pushbutton that is set to checkable rather than a checkbox?

 

You can now and no need to set it checkable in the designer the code does that for you.

Is there any mechanism to use a qstackedwidget and some pushbuttons instead of the tab widget? I suppose you generally need to stuff some python in there to use the former.
 

So yes you can use a QStackedWidget now.

How can i switch parallel to input mode?

I have used a QStackedWidget before but not in this project and yes you need to code the buttons to change pages. I'm assuming you have a small monitor and the tabs from a QTabWidget take up too much space?

Nah, it's a 16" touchscreen and a good portion of the controls will be in the hardware. I'm just not a huge fan of tab widgets, when the handles are large enough to be useable on a touchscreen they waste space, plus all of the handles are in 1 spot, vs pushbuttons that can be anywhere. I'm just getting rolling so they'll work for now.

anyone update?

Does the pipe character create a new line?
