Application Settings

Application Settings¶

This section descibes how to configure the application settings in the hdsemg-pipe application. The application settings allow you to specify the working directory of the application as described in the Opening Data section, as well as the path to the external hdsemg-select application and the openhdemg executable. The settings dialog can be accessed from the top menu bar under Settings -> Preferences.

Settings Dialog

Channel Selection App¶

The Channel Selection App section allows you to manage the installation of hdsemg-select, an external application used for channel selection. By default, the application will install the latest version of hdsemg-select from PyPI.

Work Folder¶

The Work Folder section allows you to specify the working directory of the application. This is the directory where all the data will be stored and processed. As soon as you open a file, the application will create a subdirectory in the working directory with the name of the file or folder. Detailed information can be found in the Opening Data section.

Openhdemg Installation¶

hdsemg-pipe can install the openhdemg open source project automatically from PyPI. If the application is running from the sources, you can install openhdemg by going to Settings > Preferences > openhdemg > Install openhdemg. More information about the project can be found here: Official Openhdemg Documentation.

Logging Level¶

The Logging Level section allows you to specify the logging level of the application. This is useful for debugging and troubleshooting purposes. The available logging levels are: - DEBUG: Detailed information, useful for debugging. - INFO: General information about application operations. - WARNING: Indications of potential issues. - ERROR: Error messages indicating problems that need attention. - CRITICAL: Severe errors that may prevent the application from functioning.

The current logging level is displayed in the settings dialog, and you can change it by selecting a different level from the dropdown menu and pressing the "Apply" button.

As soon as the settings dialog is closed by pressing the "OK" button, the application will save the settings to a JSON file in the application data directory. The file is named config/config.json and contains all the configuration options, including the working directory, external hdsemg-select path, openhdemg executable path, and logging level.
