|_.Functionnality |_.Status(% done)|
8
|SciQLOP should be portable, and an executable/setup should be available for Linux, Mac, Windows||
9
|Installing SciQLOP must be easy, must not require to read a documentation or install dependencies||
10
|When opened SciQLOP should by default reload the previous state (data products, plots, plugins, etc.)||
11
|SciQLOP comes with good user documentation, including galleries, examples and  tutorials including video tutorials.||
12
|SciQLOP should propose the same functionalities on all platforms.||
13
|SciQLOP should propose the same performances on all platforms.||
14
|SciQLOP's GUI should remain light, beautiful and intuitive||
15
|Exploring databases, browsing data should be easier/faster than with other existing softwares||
16
|SciQLOP should provide efficient and transparent data browsing, access to user python routines, collaborative cataloging features with and without machine learning||
17
|SciQLOP should remain responsive when plotting 10 millions of points on a standard machine.||
18
|SciQLOP should have a limited list of data type it can handle and group them by common traits (scalars, vectors, image...).||
19
|SciQLOP may be able to provide features depending on the data type, source, unit or any condition/property the user may define or program.||
20
|Each modification of the data between the source (server) and the plot should be documented||
21
|SciQLOP should be used by students as a formation tool : provide users with knowledge toolkits associated to used quantities||
22
|SciQLOP should provide users with easy access to documentations on data, missions, instruments, etc.||
23
|SciQLOP should allow users to access wikipedia plasma/mission-related articles and suggest users to edit/add content.||
24
|SciQLOP should allow users to save and restore sessions.||
25
|SciQLOP user session should contain all data to restore its previous state.||

|SciQLOP source code modifications should have a link between features or bug corrections and code revisions||
41
|SciQLOP source code should be hosted on the laboratory server hephaistos1 with the mercurial version system.||

|_.Functionnality |_.Status(% done)|
47
|SciQLOP developer's documentation, roadmap, issues, etc. will be done on the Redmine application : https://hephaistos.lpp.polytechnique.fr/redmine/projects/sciqlop||
48
|Unit test are developed for all modules and performed after each important merge||
49
|SciQLOP's code is homogeneous in its syntax and philosophy to guarantee easy maintainability.||
50
|SciQLOP's code is self-explanatory, comments are used to explain goals, methods rather than instructions. Comments record development flow (hacks, todos, etc.)||
51
|SciQLOP's code is based on the Qt framework and plotting capabilities use the QcustomPlot1 API.||

|SciQLOP should be able to plot all kinds of data relevant to space plasma missions(scalar, vector, tensor, spectrogram||
60
|Each plot element (context : colorbars, ticks, titles, labels etc. ; data : lines, style, dots, etc.) should be clickable and customizable||
61
|Controls on figure items should be identical in all kinds of plots (e.g. changing title, labels etc. is done identically for all kinds of plots).||
62
|A plot “style” (context and data style) can be copy/pasted onto another plot ||
63
|Users may define custom plot styles and save/reload them as desired||
64
|Plots should provide visualization of available metadata (instrument modes, etc.)||
65
|Each plot/view should provide the context menu associated to the data type.||
66
|Each plot/view should allow the user to select a portion of data and perform specific operations on it, such as labelling it, building new plots or applying data analysis methods on it (e.g. get statistical quantities such as mean/std, etc.).||
67
|Data can be selected by dragging a zone onto the plot: Time interval as rectangle for time series for example. A box in 3d plot/view for example.||
68
|For time dependent data the plot/view may ask for more data when the user scrolls to the borders of the plot/view. ||
69
|Users should experience no significant lag related to downloading data associated with scrolling windows||
70
|Each plot/view should allow the integration of custom controls (user defined gui widgets) provided by the current plotted data. The control may be provided as a QWidget.||
71
|Each plot/view should be easily duplicable.||
72
|Figures/plots can be linked together or not.|{background:green}. 100|
73
|Linked plots will zoom/unzoom, scroll together (horizontally)|{background:green}. 100|
74
|A Lens effect enables the user to zoom on a part of the data without changing the plot range (like a lens effect on Gimp-like software). This can be made by adding a plot window overlapped onto the plot.||
75
|Any plot should come with a default legend, customizable by the user||
76
|Any plot can be dragged to a folder and exported as an image (eps, png, jpg)||
77
|User can select multiple plots holding shift key and drag them onto a folder to export images. SciQLOP ask the user whether multiple images or a summary plot should be done.||
78
|Mouse wheel can be used to scroll in time when the figure is selected.||
79
|Plot adjustments controls appear on specific locations on mouse hover. This keeps the interface clear but still customizable.||
