mscolab: View Layout and Restoring

  • Project description:

    The PyQT Gui of the MSS client can currently handle different views by one flight path. This means once a new flight path is loaded and activated all views change to this flight path. Such a View configuration consists of many windows with a complex set of configuration options that are tedious to re-create after shutting down the application. The mscolab UI should allow for storing and restoring the view configuration of
    multiple windows for the user for an operation. This includes also to store all qsetting parameters on the server.

    A configuration should been selectable for another flightpath and operation. There should also be a layout option given to any participant of the same flightpath, e.g. two topview connected to different wms servers. A creator of an operation should be able to set the default layout of all participants.
