class navigate.controller.sub_controllers.tiling.TilingWizardController(view, parent_controller)

Bases: GUIController

Tiling Wizard Controller

Controller for tiling wizard parameters. Gathers the FOV from the camera settings tab and will update when user changes this value. Set start/end position buttons will grab the stage values for the respective axis when pressed and display in popup Number of images we need to acquire with our desired percent overlap is calculated and then displayed in third column

__init__(view, parent_controller)

Initialize Tiling Wizard Controller

Parameters:

• view (object) – GUI element containing widgets and variables to control. Likely tk.Toplevel-derived. In this case tiling_wizard_popup.py

• parent_controller (channels_tab_controller) – The controller that creates the popup/this controller.

calculate_distance(axis)

Calculate the distance for a given axis

This function will calculate the distance for a given axis of the stage when the start or end position is changed via the Set buttons

Parameters:

axis (str) – x, y, z axis of stage to calculate

calculate_tiles(axis=None)

Calculate the number of tiles for a given axis

Calculates the number of tiles of the acquisition for each axis or an individual axis Num of Tiles = dist - (overlay * FOV) / FOV * (1 - overlay) (D-OF)/(F-OF) = N

Parameters:

axis (str) – x, y, z, f axis of stage to calculate.

close_window(*args) → None

Save multiposition information and close the tiling wizard popup

Save multiposition information to yaml file, and close tiling wizard.

execute(command, *args)

This function is called when a command is passed from a child process.

Parameters:

• command (str) – command name

• args (tuple) – command arguments

initialize()

This function is called when the controller is initialized

This function initializes GUI based on configuration setting parameter: configuration_controller set range value for entry or spinbox widgets; add values to combobox get other necessary information for configuration.yml

load_settings()

Load positions from yaml file

position_handler(axis, start_end)

Set the start or end position for a given axis

When the Set [axis] Start/End button is pressed then the stage position is polled from the stage controller

Parameters:

• axis (str) – x, y, z, f axis that corresponds to stage axis

• start_end (str) – start or end will signify which spinbox gets updated upon button press

Returns:

handler – Function for setting positional spinbox based on parameters passed in

Return type:

func

register_event_listener(event_name, event_handler)

Register event listener in the parent_controller

Parameters:

• event_name (str) – event name

• event_handler (function) – event handler

set_experiment_values()

Sets values of widgets based on experiment setting

setting_dict is a dictionary

set_table()

Set the multipoint table to the values in the tiling wizard

Sets multiposition table with values from tiling wizard after populate Multiposition Table button is pressed Compute grid will return a list of all position combinations. This list is then converted to a pandas dataframe which is then set as the new table data. The table is then redrawn.

show_verbose_info(*info)

Prints verbose information to the console

Parameters:

info (tuple) – information to be printed

showup()

Show the tiling wizard

Brings popup window to front of screen

update_experiment_values()

Collects all the values of widgets

setting_dict is a reference of experiment dictionary update the dictionary directly

update_fov(axis=None)

Update the FOV for the tiling wizard

Grabs the updated FOV if changed by user, will recalculate num of tiles for each axis after

Parameters:

axis (str) – Axis

update_overlap()

Update the overlay percentage for the tiling wizard

Updates percent overlay when a user changes the widget in the popup. This value is used for backend calculations. The number of tiles will then be recalculated

update_total_tiles()

Update the total number of tiles in the tiling wizard

Sums the tiles for each axis in the tiling wizard. Will update when any axis has a tile amount change.
