Thank you very much Michael! It works! Now I can play
with rosgui. I have tried two plugins which I need very much at
the moment: rosgui_plot, rosgui_pose_view.
Great to hear that you are getting some use out of rosgui already!
Please be aware though, that the rosgui_plot plugin is not using the
ros msg header timestamps at the moment.
So the data is shown as equidistant data points. As long as your
data is measured/generated at a constant rate you should have no
problem with that.
This should be changed in the future, but I don't know when I'll get
to that, so feel free to supply patches if you like ;-)
However with some changes:
I think the qwt in rosdep.yaml should be pyqwt;
As I don't have OSX I don't know about the correct package names for
homebrew, but I assume you are right.
I would guess it should be like this:
python-qwt5-qt4: pyqwt
python-qt4-dev: pyqt
Maybe your or William can confirm this and I'll commit it.
and I also change
import Qwt
to
import
PyQt4.Qwt5 as Qwt
This should not be necessary and would break the compatibility with
PySide as alternative Python bindings.
The module "Qwt" is supplied by rosgui.QtBindingHelper as an alias
for either PyQt4.Qwt5 or PySideQwt depending on your available
bindings.
I installed pyopengl manually by
sudo pip
install pyopengl
and this could be in rosdep.yaml
If there is no package for pyopengl on homebrew this would be a
valid solution.
Maybe you can supply a patch for the rosdep.yaml containing this?
Maybe you can
run
$ rosdep check rviz_qt
and $ rosdep check rosgui_rviz
to check where this error is coming from.
I just filed a bug about a problem in the rviz_qt
rosdep.yaml, but this should not affect you, if
you are on OSX. https://code.ros.org/trac/ros-pkg/ticket/5312
After I fixed that locally, I got not errors when
running $ rosmake --rosdep-install rosgui_rviz
Cheers,
Dorian

Most of the errors are from wx, and
I'm not
going to waste my time on installing
old wx GUI tools. However I really
need rxplot at the moment.
If you want rxplot-like functionality
without wxWidgets you might want to try
the newly developed ROS GUI.
I can't promise anything for OS X, but
if there are problems I suspect them to
be fixed fast.
