The new gui can be found here - https://github.com/Pragmatismo/pigrow_windows_remote/blob/master/test_guiWin_008.zip

This includes picam3 support with rpicam, they're great cameras and make focusing much easer - really good for close up work where depth of field makes focal distance important.

Also Venv support which is required in Bookworm, the newest version of raspberry pi OS which is required for the picam3, pi5 and a few other new things. If using bookworm then set up the venv before running the install wizard or installing any python modules.

Note - using bookworm there may be other changes they've made, for example the location of the /boot/config.txt file has changed so the boot config tools in system_pnl wil not work, i'll fix them but for now make any required changes manually (e.g. i2c baudrate, 1wire config)

The timelapse and localfiles panel have a few small updates and fixes, and there are a couple of other minor improvements.

I'll keep testing with bookworm and fix anything that needs it but hopefully will be able to focus on moving over the graphs tab so we can finally reorder everything. I've got a few projects up and running that will gathering timelapse while i'm away, i'll also be using some of the time i'm away to work on finishing some designs so hopefully i'll have a load of new stuff to add soon.

I'll have a video coming soon showing how to use the new timelapse tools and write modules to stylise, analyse, select frames, etc.

You can copy your gui settings file and frompigrow folder to carry everything over. To make and play timelapse you'll need MPV installed - there's a script that does it on their website https://mpv.io/installation/

It doesn't currently have the overlay log feature as that will be added when the Graphing is (because it uses the same log loading mechanism).

As it's still too cold to paint or pour resin I still can't finish my growbox which means i'll probably have the user logs and graphs tabs ported into the new gui soon - also i'll be making a video explaining how to make tools for the timelapse tool.

Here's an example of one of the new analyse tools; https://imgur.com/a/UtOPgz4

it makes it very easy to see missing images, light level changes, etc. Depending on your computer it may take a long time with bigger image sets.

new graph too, https://imgur.com/a/uPmVQrT

it's showing seconds since the first image was taken, a smooth ramp means even spacing and any sudden steps suggest a missing period.

I'll be adding a few more upgrades and new tools, any suggestions or ideas i'd love to hear them.
