Description

The main UI panel needs some work. I did try to simplify by presenting the important elements of a fit and grouping by functionality. However there are still a few items that need to be added.

I would like to create a two tiered UI by adding an Options button that would bring up more obscure, less likely to change items. This will keep it simple and easy to learn/use while making it more powerful. It'll be easier to evolve the plugin by just throwing stuff on the Options menu without having to worry much about layout.

Status changed from new to closed
Resolution set to fixed

Went to a tabbed approach for the UI panel. This makes it easier to add new items to the UI panel without it getting outlandishly large.

At present all parameters are available from the UI panel without the need for this Options section.
