Jeremy, I'd be interested in hearing a bit more detail on this, hopefully at a future software meeting. Unfortunately my attendance for the next two weeks is uncertain, so in the meantime let me ask a couple of questions here (cc'd to software list); 1) What are the potential problems caused by the use of AIDAFrame in the monitoring app, and how serious are those problems? i.e. will it cause occasional crashes, or render the application unusable during the run? Or worse, will it effect the information displayed in the plots to the point where those plots are no longer displaying real information? 2) I'm not sure running in batch mode with JAS3 is a viable replacement for every plot, and I'm not clear how big a task it is to implement a "proper" solution. Would you be in a position to describe an example of how to do this? 3) Is a more gradual approach to removing AIDAFrame possible? Can it be done driver-by-driver, without breaking all the copy-and-paste style relatives? If we don't have the (time and people) resources to remove AIDAFrame from everything, is there a way of leaving some of the drivers that use this? Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.
