Install a set of branches to different plugins that clean up the rqt window to optionally get rid of unnecessary ui elements and topics:
Disable image transport plugins that aren't going to be used:
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/lucasw/image_common
cd image_common
git checkout remotes/origin/disable_plugins
git checkout -b disable_plugins
git branch --set-upstream-to=remotes/origin/disable_plugins
This is a temporary merge of three different pull requests that reduce wasted screen space and prevent a changing resolution from shrinking the image:
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/lucasw/rqt_common_plugins
cd rqt_common_plugins
git checkout remotes/origin/rqtimageview-hide-menu-dont-shrink-subscribe-saved
git checkout -b rqtimageview-hide-menu-dont-shrink-subscribe-saved
git branch --set-upstream-to=remotes/origin/rqtimageview-hide-menu-dont-shrink-subscribe-saved
This allows an rqt plugin title bar to be eliminated entirely:
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/lucasw/qt_gui_core.git
cd qt_gui_core
git checkout remotes/origin/hide-title-clean-window-name
git checkout -b hide-title
git branch --set-upstream-to=remotes/origin/hide-title
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/lucasw/qt_gui_core.git
cd qt_gui_core
git checkout remotes/origin/kinetic-hide-title-perspective-window-name
git checkout -b kkinetic-hide-title-perspective-window-name
git branch --set-upstream-to=remotes/origin/kinetic-hide-title-perspective-window-name
The main thing wrong is that there are no image labels, but at least the images can be bigger:
Also am I missing something because File and Help are visible?
