#9: Phaseout of Qwt 2¶
The Phaseout of Qwt and Matplotlib Widgets¶
Karabo is moving forward and will not support the Qwt and matplotlib widgets with Karabo 2.9.0, which will be released 15.05.2020.
For a rather smooth transition, the new GUI will reinterpret the scene information of Qwt or matplotlib widgets. In other words, a new GUI will open a scene with a Qwt widget, but shows the counterpart listed in the table below. The old widget is still part of the scene, but will be fully replaced once the scene is saved to the project database.
The geometry of the existing widgets are reused on the replacements to preserve the scene layout. There might be cases that these would not be the best sizes for the new widgets, thus we would like to ask the scene developers to check and manually resize the widget to fit your scene. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
