atse c9aa0eaab8 ctrl_panel: Reformat SpinBox text always if valid
The parameter SpinBoxes previously would only update if the interpreted
value was changed, missing cases where the text would have changed but
the value stays the same, e.g. removing trailing decimal zeros.

atse aed0c484dd ctrl_panel: Fix editing fields with unit "°C"
A faulty regular expression within PyQtGraph causes any Parameter with a
suffix that doesn't begin with an alphanumeric character (as matched
with \w) to act abnormally. For instance, entering "100 °C" into the
input boxes gets interpreted as 10 °C.

Patch the FLOAT_REGEX in PyQtGraph to simply match for any character in
the suffix group.

atse 3ae89760ab ctrl_panel: Fix max_v to only have unit "V"
As most users do not need to limit TEC voltage with accuracy of less
than 1mV.

atse 2f9b95f04b ctrl_panel: Bold "Control Method" text 2024-10-07 16:13:56 +08:00
atse 9926c00494 ctrl_panel: Indicate active parameter of control
Instead of hiding the inactive control parameter, underline and bold the
active control parameter title, e.g. "Set Current" when control method
is constant current, and "Setpoint" when it is temperature PID.

atse fde1e6b3e4 ctrl_panel: Limits fixes
* PID Autotune test current should be positive

* max_v should be 4 V not 5 V

* r0 should not be negative

atse 873f16a675 ctrl_panel: Code cleanup
* Remove unnecessary duplication of `THERMOSTAT_PARAMETERS`

* i -> ch

* Separate ParameterTree and Parameter initiation

* Remove extra "channel" option to root parameters, as the "value"
option is already the channel number

atse ac10859f70 ctrl_panel: Stop crushing spinboxes
It might not be the case on some themes, but on the default Qt theme the
spinbox are a bit too short for the containing numbers. See
https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/issues/701.

atse 4bda62ab41 ctrl_panel: Pin down units for editable fields
User input always has the same order of magnitude, so allowing multiple
siPrefixes would be unwanted complexity. Don't allow them to be changed.

The Parameter option "noUnitEditing" is added to do so by the following
measures:

1. Don't validate for changed siPrefix (if pinned) and suffix, which
avoids their removal.

2. Avoid getting the cursor embedded within the unit.

atse 6df37e31aa ctrl_panel: Remove need for "mA" hack
Remove all instances of mA scaling scattered all around the code and
specify it in the parameter tree with a single source of truth.

Done by adding the option "pinSiPrefix" for all Parameters of type `int`
or `float`, and using it for current Parameters with unit "mA".

atse 2df4c03c2d ctrl_panel: Appropriate units for measured current
Allow the readonly display of current to vary its SI prefix in the unit,
since as a display entry it won't have the unit adjustment problem.

atse 6a38f9b5a6 ctrl_panel: Refer to Parameters by concise `name`s
For displayed string representations, use the `title` key, or for
`ListParameter`s, use the dictionary mapping method instead.
