I would welcome this very very much! This would let me experiment and make the Grand *redesign* of the advanced view's "Tasks" tab. Not only the columns will be "checkable" which are to be displayed and their *order* can be selected by the user in the GUI, but the user will be able to *CREATE* and save/load *several* "profiles" !! So that he / she does NOT need to change it manually whenever he / she needs to "switch" to different point of view to solve / check different issues / idling cores / GPUs etc... resource-share / backup projects.... also the ordering will be much more optional and will remember up to 5 columns by which it will sort - sorting order of the columns will also be saved/loaded in the *profile*. :) * This should make the LIFE of many scientists and power-users much much easier!* It will take me some time, however .... I will *design* the internal (optimal / ideal) API for this with "Apiary" and API Blueprint tools ... then I will create a good WRAPPER which will kinda "isolate" me from the *awful wxWidget low-level code* and then ... it is EASY ----- "The path ahead is clear. ..." ! :-) So, thats the plan. What do You say? (attending in person the meetup in Prague ... which is a workshop for the Apiary + API Blueprint ! So I will know to use them *directly from their author*!! Hopefully, it will be enough-GREAT a lecture. Wish me luck - I need to learn this really *WELL* if I am to use it inside of BOINC Manager ;) ) *Namaste* Filip 2015-01-07 16:04 GMT+01:00 Christian Beer <christian.b...@posteo.de>: > I would second that and also volunteer to look at the issues and pull > requests as I'm more active on github lately.
