PlotJuggler

This is a big release:

• Update data structure to store data. Should allow more interactivity between plugins and main app.
• Big plugins such as MQTT and LSL have been moved to a different repo
• Fixes for those users which have problems with OpenGL.
• And much more!!!

As a result, anyone that created they own plugin should probably check for API compatibility and compile it again as described here:

https://github.com/PlotJuggler/plotjuggler-sample-plugins

• Fix crash when editing an "Apply Filter" twice.
• New API in Message Parsers
• Disable OpenGL from the command line. Useful if PJ won't start with OpenGL on.

This version introduces few important changes:

• OpenGL can now be disabled in the App -> Preference menu.
• Similarly, the tree visualization based on character "/" can be disabled in Preferences.
• A new simple plugin to export CSV data has been add (In the Publishers section).
• Fixing issues with ULOG plugin.

The more noteworthy update in this release is the new syntax to return multiple points in the function of Custom Timeseries.

See changelog.

After a bumpy release with some issues and regressions, I believe that this version is the first one that is really "stable".

PlotJuggler introduces a huge amount of change in the UI and the functionalities.
Windows version needs more work, but it will be probably released with version 3.0.8

If you are a ROS user, do not forget to install the package plotjuggler_ros

Thanks to everyone reporting. Fixes:

• #209 wrong roll pitch yaw calculation in Quaternion
• #300 potential crash during streaming
• #301 crash when selecting the topics to republish

The ROS2 plugins are ready for prime time (Eloquent only).

Test them and let me know how it is going...

Version 2.7 is the first that supports ROS2 (rosbag2 and topic streaming).

Enjoy and report bugs

Now, sharing a PlotJuggler screenshot on Slack with you colleagues is faster than ever.

Once you start using this, you just fall in love with it.

Please update!

In this release there are a couple of bug fixes and a new feature: step size configuration.

This step is not applied during playback but only when the left and right arrows are pressed.

This is an exciting release!

Now you can decide either to write your scripts in JavaScript or Lua!

Furthermore, icons are been moved to use more effectively the real estate on the screen.

The main changes in this release are:

• a bug fix related to the Menu bar that was extremely slow.
• now you get notified when a new version of PlotJuggler is available.

New option in File ->Preferences...

My bad...

There is a feature that I wanted to integrate since forever.

Tree view on the left panel!!!!

I still believe the "flat" view is the most convenient, but you can finally experience that yourself!

Many bugs were also fixed (thanks to all the contributors).
