Configurations dialog

Configurations stores the complete setup of a SDRangel instance:

• Workspaces
• Device sets
• Features

It also stores the geometry of all windows and workspaces so that the entire aspect of a configuration of the instance can be saved and retrieved. A default configuration is saved at program exit and retrieved at the next program start. Use the --scratch command line option to skip the retrieval of the default configuration and start with an empty setup.

1: Configuration selection

Move the cursor to select a configuration. Features can be organized into groups at the top level (here "Test"). When selecting a group only Edit and Delete group are available

2: Add new configuration

Save the current setup in a new configuration.

3: Update selected configuration

Update the selected configuration with the current setup

4: Edit configuration

Change configuration name or the configuration group to which this configuration belongs. If selection is a group the group name can be changed.

5: Export configuration

Export selected configuration in a file that can be imported on another machine possibly with a different O/S. The configuration binary data (BLOB) is saved in Base-64 format.

6: Import preset

This is the opposite of the previous operation. This will create a new configuration in the selected group or the same group as the configuration being selected.

7: Delete configuration

Delete selected configuration or selected group

8: Load configuration

Load configuration in the current instance. All components and workspaces are deleted first.

9: Close dialog

This button dismisses the dialog.
