QADMainWindow

class sofia_redux.pipeline.gui.qad.qad_main_panel.QADMainWindow

Bases: QMainWindow, Ui_MainWindow

QAD Qt5 GUI main window.

All attributes and methods for this class are intended for internal use, to support the main GUI event loop and operations. This class is normally instantiated from the sofia_redux.pipeline.gui.qad.main function; all methods are triggered by user interaction only.

The UI for this application is built in Qt Designer: see the designer folder for the Designer input files; the compiled Python scripts are in the ui module. All ui_*.py files should not be edited manually, as they are automatically generated. See the designer/compile_ui file for the sequence of commands required to rebuild the UI from Designer files.

Build the QAD GUI window.
