Revision as of 19:20, 25 February 2008

Have experimented on various features enough. Now its time to pull them in version by version.


For version 18

Plans

  1. CSV logging support and making an explicit entry in journal for each CSV file created
  2. Measure toolbar split into Sound and Sensors toolbars
  3. A record/logging button at the bottom
  4. A text box at the bottom that shows details. RMS , AVG, PK-PK, X Axis Scale and Y Axis Scale
  5. Context switch between Sound and Sensors changes the electrical settings
  6. On both the sensor and sound contexts there is an icon with the XO colors that shows where the input is. Within sensors it would point to the MicIn jack and within sound it would point to the built in microphone

Rationale

  1. Spreadsheet Activity would be able to read the CSV file generated and show a variety of graphs based on the data
  2. Bias and AC/DC are complex terms for understanding. Sound and sensors are two categories based on the contextual use.
  3. One should be able to measure whatever one is doing.
  4. For other sensors later, there is a need for showing numbers and values and it doesn't make sense to show them on the drawing area
  5. Like how it is done within the Record Activity
  6. To help the user to identify what the source is. It is hard to guess that Mic In is the place where one needs to connect the sensors
