Make Channel the single source of truth for a reading's name

2026-09-21T04:30:13Z

Device tab stays hardware-only (pins, wiring, may vary per workstation); the Channels window owns the profile-facing identity. Concretely: - Fix a real regression: SerialDevice generic-format Apply & Reconnect nulled out custom channel_names/units every time (no fallback, unlike every other optional field in reconfigure()), silently reverting to sig0/sig1/... ids. - Plot legend now live-tracks the current Signal/Channel name instead of freezing tr.label at add-time, so a rename shows up without re-adding the trace. - Add an inline quick-reconnect (combo + button, pre-selects the actual current source) directly on each Channel block in the Channels window, for the common single-source case — rewiring hardware no longer means touching every Plot/pipeline that referenced it. - Collapse the Channel ID field behind an "ID ▸" advanced toggle; channel_id is already auto-derived from the name (_slug_id) and rarely needs to be seen. - Devices tab's Signal "Name" column relabeled "Label" with a tooltip — de-emphasized now that Channel name is the real identity. - Move "create a Channel from this Signal" from a column on the Devices tab's signal table to a ⊕ button on each Signal row in the Channels tab's Namespace panel — the action now lives where the identity is created, not on the hardware tab. Only that instance opts in (on_create_channel); the read-only Namespace dock on the main window is unaffected. - Floor the Namespace panel's width at its columns' natural size so dragging the Channels-tab splitter narrower can't push the ⊕ column behind the horizontal scrollbar. - Breadcrumb log when a profile-saved Signal override can't be applied because the signal_id no longer exists.

Fix Signal name reset and orphaned references on device reconfigure

2026-09-20T17:31:07Z

Apply & Reconnect rebuilt a device's whole Signal list from hardware defaults on every call, silently discarding user/profile-set names, units, and colors even when pins hadn't changed. Add merge_signal_metadata() and call it from ArduinoDevice.remap_pins() and SerialDevice.reconfigure() to reapply the same fields ProfileManager already treats as user overrides, keyed by signal_id. Also close a related gap: removing a pin that a Channel/Plot/Control still referenced left it silently dangling, and SignalProcessor never pruned its latest-value cache, so a derived Channel kept computing off a permanently frozen stale reading. Add SignalProcessor. on_device_reconfigured() to purge that cache, reference_registry. find_references() for a console breadcrumb, and live "missing source" indicators on Plot traces and Channel blocks reusing ControlWidget's existing stale/QSS pattern. Also fixes ControlWidget._write() still enqueuing writes to a channel that no longer exists. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5

Redesign Signal/Channel naming and fix pin-remap breaking references

2026-09-19T23:38:07Z

Arduino analog Signal ids used to be the pin name itself, so fixing a wrong pin silently changed the id and orphaned any plot trace, control, or filter pipeline pointing at it. Analog Signal ids are now positional (ai0, ai1, ...) and decoupled from the underlying pin, matching how digital I/O already worked. More broadly, formalizes a Device -> Signal -> Channel -> Plot naming model (SignalConfig for physical device channels, Channel for derived/ computed ones) and adds core/reference_registry.py to propagate any Signal or Channel id rename through plot traces, controls, and filter pipelines instead of leaving them dangling. Signal ids are now editable in the Signals tab with the same propagation. .labui profile schema bumped to v2.0 with a transparent migration for old files, including remapping old pin-name Signal ids to the new positional ones. Removed six confirmed-dead files (two legacy device classes, four superseded top-level ui/ duplicates).

Re-detect serial device ports by identity when a profile loads on another machine

2026-08-13T17:09:03Z

COM/tty numbers aren't stable across machines or replugs. Devices now save their USB serial number and OS description alongside the port; on profile load, if the saved port isn't present, ArduinoLayer.find_port_by_identity() looks for a match and remaps it. Falls back to the saved port (device shows ERROR) if nothing matches. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5

Unify Signals/Channels around auto-naming, plot-by-channel, and shared vars

2026-08-10T22:12:05Z

Devices: auto-name from OS-reported port description (Device Manager / udev string) instead of a generic label; default Serial #Channels 1; consistent simulate-mode checkbox across backends; inline device rename. Channels: calibration/filters move out of Signals into a Channel "Operation" (adds Scale/Offset alongside the existing math kinds); single-physical-source Channels get an embedded Filters block; new Channels auto-name/auto-ID from their source and reject duplicate names/IDs on apply; "Create Channel" button on each Signal row; renamed "Sources" -> "Signals" in the Channels UI; Signals' READ/WRITE dir badge (was silently-broken IN/OUT) now reflects the real writable flag. Plot: default layout is one pane per Channel (not per device, not raw Signals) titled by channel name; "+ Add Channel" is a checkbox dialog instead of an inline dropdown; traces get up/down reorder; live unit changes (e.g. a Mark-10 gauge switching lb/kgF/N/ozF) propagate to an open pane's axis label without clobbering a manually-typed one. Control Panel: hardware assignment now picks from the same writable- Signals list instead of a separate device/channel combo with a hardcoded Arduino pin list; stale visual indicator when a control's target device/channel disconnects or disappears; documented the `vars` bridge (Control Panel On Action Script <-> Channel scripts) in both directions' help text and script templates.

Merge origin/main: reconcile ConfigWindow consolidation with Debug window + protocol updates

2026-08-02T07:34:43Z

origin/main (23 commits) added a Debug window/log system on top of the old separate Devices/Channels/Plot windows, plus protocol fixes (cml, mark10, modbus_rtu, scpi) and device/profile changes. Local main (3 commits) replaced the separate windows with a unified ConfigWindow + dock panel. Kept local's ConfigWindow/dock architecture and ported the Debug window onto it: new toolbar button + _open_debug(), gated by developer_mode same as origin's version. Deduped the two independent "developer mode" toggles that had collided in SettingsWindow (origin's General-tab checkbox gating Debug window + device sim-mode visibility, local's Advanced-tab checkbox setting verbose logging) into one General-tab checkbox that does both.

Consolidate Devices/Channels/Plot into unified ConfigWindow

2026-08-02T06:58:34Z

Replaces three separate floating windows with single tabbed ConfigWindow: - Tab 0: Devices (device cards, add/remove/configure) - Tab 1: Channels (signal table with Dir/IN/OUT badge + pipeline ⚙ per row; derived channels pane) - Tab 2: Plot (layout canvas + pane config) Adds is_output field to ChannelConfig for output channel direction badges.
