Editing GRCroadmap

= GRC Roadmap =

This is a summary of the &quot;things people would like&quot; to see in GRC. These items are collected from the IRC, the mailing list and the discussions during GRCon13.

== Usability ==

* '''Export function''' (unassigned) 
** Rename the menu entry. 
** Support vector graphics.
** Possibility to add a legend (of port types)

* '''GUI builder''' (unassigned)
** A graphical tool for designing GNU Radio GUIs

* '''Block implementation language''' (unassigned)
** Add some indicator for C++, Python. Useful for embedded, I guess.

* '''Integrate Doxygen''' (done, but unassigned)
** Open doxygen page for any block in the flow-graph
** Support OOT project documentation
** '''Status:''' Code exists. Needs some refinement and testing 

* '''Integrate OOT project development''' (unassigned)
** The Idea here is the ease the development for projects with custom blocks by adding some some OOT project handling. This includes:
** Identify a GRC file with a OOT module (by its path)
** Auto (re-)load block definitions for the blocks of this module (local blocks)
** GUI for modtool to extend the module (Code exists)
** Allow local blocks to be used w/o install in the generated flow-graph

== Block management ==

* '''Multi-page flow-graphs''' (unassigned) 
** split blocks over multiple pages 
** add off-page connectors

* '''Group parameter and variable blocks''' (Sebastian - WIP) 
** visual those blocks for better overview

* Better-handling of GRC-produced hier-blocks 

== Run-time ==

* '''Dynamic flow-graph configuration''' (unassigned) 
** Allow run-time block enable/disable 
** Perhaps only at init time, and based on command-line params

* add some way to add code to auto-generated flow graphs
** Details? Use-case?
** Maybe Balint's 'Any Code' block already covers this.

* run flow-graphs remotely (Sebastian - done/need work on GUI integration)
** bundle them with hier_block2
** check remote GR version

== Others / Uncategorized ==

* provide a safe method for blocks object handle to be passed into &quot;helper code&quot;
** Details? Use-case?

* Change settings for currently active flow graph, e.g. debugger output level (e.g. if standard log level is ERROR, switch it to INFO for testing)

* Make drop-down menu for examples
