Then you should not need any python code use just rules
 

This is what you meant when you mentioned the if/then/else rule statement earlier, right?  That gets me the three color states for the stopped/running/paused indicator.

To get the three text values, I'd need a second if/then/else rule for the widget... or the same status channel rule can do both appearance and text displayed?

You can add multiple rules, use the right click rules dialog and add as you need, you can also add multiple channels to use in the expression. The expression can have multiple else continuation for each test to display.  There are examples in the ui, take a look at some of the labels and there rules.

I broadened the scope of the flash to all widgets in qtdesigner and went ahead and updated the cycle start button to flash on pause, much nicer and more noticeable without being a blight on the ui in bright yellow.. I hate yellow...lol

Me too.

That's why it's useful, at least in my case, for something that needs to get my attention... my brain can't ignore anything that awful.

Getting started now on a re-do of the sidebar and user_buttons based on your updates and advice.  I'm leaving the ATC buttons and DRO alone, as those were both created without py file modifications.

Fingers crossed...

One down...

 

Is there a setting to startup with the user sidebar displayed like there is for the user tab?

lol.. good point!
