Graphical User Interface of IPLT

The graphical user interface if IPLT is started with the stand-alone executable giplt (see IpltMisc), which will initialize the wxWidgets environment. It then starts the wxPython shell (see below), from which more graphical user interface elements can be created:

PythonShell

The graphical python shell offers a full python interpreter context, into which the basic iplt modules as well as the special gui module has been pre-loaded. It also allows graphical procedures to be added.

DataViewer

The DataViewer offers visualization of images and functions. It can be extended with the following Overlays:

• PointListOverlay for displaying a Pointlist (for example from a peak search)
• Gauss2DOverlay to display a schematized 2D gaussian
• DrawOverlay provides a simple interface to draw into images
• MaskOverlay can be used to graphically modify polygonal masks

More overlays are available in the ex module.

PlotViewer

The PlotViewer provides a sophisticated plotting environment for data values and functions.

InfoViewer

InfoViewer for manipulation of meta-info (ie xml files)
