Changes are on github: https://github.com/sigrokproject/pulseview/pull/38 This is a work in progress and I would appreciate some guidance in getting it merged, since I agree that it is a useful feature. Code on this branch can compile and run, but has a problem switching the segment display mode while a repeat capture is running. Open questions - Session states: The new repeat mode means that a capture session may return to `Running` state repeatedly. However `pv::views::trace::View` expects the transition to `Running` state to happen only once per capture and uses it as a signal to reset the state of the UI which interferes with segment display. More states can be added to the session but I don't know whether it is best to do so. See comments in view.cpp. I've gone ahead and updated my PR to add a Starting state to pv::Session so that observers can do one-time setup tasks before states start looping between Running and Awaiting, as they do during a repeating capture. Previously, these setup tasks were done at the transition to Running state which, without the repeat capture ability, would have only happened once. This allows pv::views::trace::View to reset its currently displayed segment to zero only once at the start of a repeating capture. With this and some other minor updates, the repeat capture feature is working nicely with the segment display modes. Selecting "Display last complete segment only" mode will redraw the traces only when a capture segment is complete. This behavior was requested in Brian's prior repeat capture discussion. Soeren was right, most of the code to implement repeat captures as multiple segments was already there. I appreciate any feedback and guidance about how to resolve any other open tasks.
