Hello Folks,
I am interested in your opinions. Maybe I simplify this topic to much
and miss something.
A fresh installed and not configured BIT will ask if you want to restore
an existing configuration (from a backup somewhere else). The dialog [1]
[2] to select backup folder containing the config that should be
restored is the topic here.
The dialog shows a directory tree to encourage the user to select the
folder containing the config file.
I wonder if this dir tree widget is even useful in this context.
The dialog runs an extra thread in background search the file system for
config files. That thread updates the related tree entries, so that the
QLabel below that tree widget can display information of profiles found
[1] or if nothing was found [2].
So why not throw away that tree widget and just present the search
result of the thread running in the background?
The user just need to wait some seconds in the beginning until the
search for config files is finished.
Maybe add an extra button with a DirSelectDialog behind.
It would simplify the code. It would remove the threading logic and
tree-model-filterproxy-logic of the tree widget.
Any suggestions and thoughts about it?
Regards,
Christian
