(1) Platform specific issues
o General NxWM Issues
-------------------
Title: DISPLAY INTIALIZATION
Description: During the initialization of the display, the basic frame of the
start window is draw momentarily. The is just the empty window
frame. This is a consequence of how NX creates windows: The
are enabled all of the time so the windows are visible when they
are being created. The solution would be to add some disable
logic in NX so that that nothing gets displayed when a window
is created until it is fully initialized and enable.
Status: Open
Priority: Medium
Title: DRAGGING ACROSS WINDOWS
Description: Need some indication if the touch/mouse drags from one window to
another then is release. Release event is lost in this case.
Status: Open
Priority: Low. ICON just stays selected and must be touched again.
Title: AUTO-RAISE DISABLED
Description: Auto-raise is currently disabled in nuttx for NX multi-server
mode. The
reason is complex:
- Most touchscreen controls send touch data a high rates
- In multi-server mode, touch events get queued in a message
queue.
- The logic that receives the messages performs the auto-raise.
But it can do stupid things after the first auto-raise as
it opperates on the stale data in the message queue.
I am thinking that auto-raise ought to be removed from NuttX
and moved out into a graphics layer (like NxWM) that knows
more about the appropriate context to do the autoraise.
Status: Open
Priority: Medium low
Title: THREAD SAFETY
Description: I am not sure how thread-safe the NxWidgets are. There is
is very little mutli-thread in the widgets now. The "NX listener"
thread interacts to update mouse (and keyboard) data but all
of the heavy work is done on the "start window" thread. I think
everything is okay now, but it may be necessary in the future
to introduce some semaphore protection in theCWidgetControl methods
to make them thread safe.
Status: Open
Priority: Low
o NxConsole Issues
----------------
Title: MULTIPLE COPIES OF AN NxCONSOLE
Description: From the start window, you an create multiple copies of the
NxConsole. However, there is a problem in the current
implementation: Each NxConsole receives its input from the
serial console so, for example, it you enter text one character
will go to one NxConsole instance and the next character goes
to a different instance. That is correct behavior within the
current design, but not very usable. We need a mechanism to
assure that the top window is the one that receives all
eyboard input. NX already provides this capability with its
nx_kbdin interface(), but that is not currently used. At present,
NxConsoles get their input from /dev/console which is the serial
port. The necessary change is to create an NX input device for
/dev/console that will get its input from NX.
Status: Open
Priority: Medium high, basically prohibits the use of multiple NSH windows.
Title: CLOSING AN NxCONSOLE
Description: If you open multiple NxConsole applications, they all receive
serial input (as noted in the previous bug). However, if
you close one of the NxConsoles, then the others no longer
received input (or no long generate output -- that cannot be
distinguished).
Status: Open
Priority: Medium high, basically prohibits the use of multiple NSH windows.
Title: DOUBLE DISPLAY UPDATES
Description: When the NxConsole window is first opened, there are usually
double updates, i.e., the display forms twice.
Status: Open
Priorioty: Low, this would be necessary to fix to productize the windows.
o Platform specific issues
------------------------
Title: MISSING TOUCH RELEASE
Description: Using the STM3240G-EVAL board with the STMPE11 touchscreen, you
will find that there are occasional missing indications of when
you release a icon. This is believed to be a data overrun in the
STPMPE11 data path. The STMPE11 generates data a very high
rate and it is believe that it sometimes misses the interrupt
that indicates that the touch is released. The symptom in NxWM
is that you touch an icon, it is highlighted but when you release
the touch nothing happens. The icon stays highlighted. Touching
the icon again usually works around this problem.
