flint: Readability of image marker at BM18
Feedback from BM18.
Here is a screenshot 1 to 1 of the screens at BM18.
The image takes a lot of space.
And marker are difficult to read.
To improve that there is different approches.
- For now the color of the ROI is the same as the color of the text color
- Ask for a
text-color
API in silx (so what we could choose a text color with a better contrast, which could be black)
- Ask for a
- Maybe the pink color (for the marker and the text) is not the best one
- As discussed with Paul, maybe a "green" would be meter in this case
- silx provides a "marker" color per colormap, i don't think it's the color which is used right now
- In such screen the text is also anyway very small
- As discussed with Thomas, we could ask for a global text size configuration in silx
- Finally, if you care about the image size (indicator displayed at the bottom-right of the screen) we could place it at a better location
- We could imagine a Qt overlay (HUD) on top of the image with some information
- As it would be a Qt widget, there is dedicated API to request
- Such overlay could be half-transparent and could disappear when it is hovered by the mouse cursor
- The
0,0
andimage size
are markers with only text, the API already allow to change the text color- So we can choose to display it in black already
