Description (last modified by Ichthyostega)

As Lumiera Product Owner,
I want to establish a bidirectional connection between GUI ⟷ Session,
to start providing actually useful operations through the GUI

Integration Milestone

  • Initially we used placeholder objects in the Lumiera GTK to back the widgets of the Timeline display
  • then, with the rework of the GUI top-level, the »tangible« elements in the GUI were connected to the UI-Bus
    • now the contents of the GUI will be populated by Diff messages to build up the nested structure of widgets
    • these widgets in turn can access the UI-Bus and send command messages to manipulate the Session contents

9/2023 : Groundwork is done

  • UI-Bus is connected in both directions
  • SteamDispatcher receives commands
  • Timeline-Display can be built up by pushing Diff messages via UI-Bus

But there is still a gap in both directions

  • since scheme for Session Mutation is not yet worked out, the SteamDispatcher is not able actually to process commands
  • since it is not clear how Diff messages are emitted, there is no source yet to connect upwards into the UI-Bus
