UI Component System Refactoring

Overview

Complete restructuring of the compas_viewer UI architecture to implement a modern component-based system with improved modularity and maintainability.

Key Changes

New Component Architecture

  • Added Component base class with standardized widget attribute and update() method
  • Added BoundComponent class for components bound to object attributes with automatic value synchronization
  • All UI components now inherit from Base class for consistent structure

Component Refactoring

  • Replaced dialogs with integrated components: CameraSettingsDialog → CameraSetting, ObjectSettingDialog → ObjectSetting
  • Enhanced existing components: Updated Slider, TextEdit, Button to use new inheritance model
  • Added new components: BooleanToggle, ColorPicker, NumberEdit, Container, Tabform
  • Removed deprecated components: ColorComboBox, ComboBox, DoubleEdit, LineEdit, LabelWidget

UI Structure Improvements

  • Moved components to dedicated components/ folder
  • Added MainWindow, StatusBar, ViewPort components
  • Refactored MenuBar, ToolBar, SideDock to use new component system
  • Updated UI class to use new component architecture

Technical Improvements

  • Standardized component initialization with obj, attr, action parameters
  • Improved data binding with automatic attribute synchronization
  • Enhanced container system with scrollable and splitter options
  • Updated event handling and signal connections

Impact

This refactoring provides a cleaner, more maintainable codebase with better separation of concerns and improved extensibility for future UI development.
