Description
Hi, first of all, thank you for this awesome project. It has saved my sanity multiple times over, trying to nest stuff myself.
A thought I had when I was working with this program was that, during the nesting process, maybe to have a stopwatch visible on the nesting page to keep track of how long ago the most recent nesting was found.
Some optional toggles I can think of that could expand on this further:
1. A set of timestamps for each previous nesting as well, so I can see how long has passed between the discovery of nestings. If I can see that the program has previously found nestings within 10 minutes of each other, and then the last two took over 3 hours each to find, I am coming up against the best I will be able to get in a reasonable timeframe. Basically, what was the stopwatch at when the next most recent nesting was discovered. I can also see two potential alternate formats people might want that would show effectively the same information:
1a. Instead of timespamping how long a previous nest was the best nest, have a timestamp next to each nest showing the total nesting time at the time that nesting was found.
1b. A possible toggle to show system times for the nesting history, in hh:mm:ss. So I can see the first nesting was 14:37:11. The next nesting was 14:38:51. Etc.
2. There could also be a setting to auto-stop nesting if a specified duration passes since the last layout was found. Something like, if more than 4 hours pass without finding a new best nesting, stop. Then I can let this run overnight or over a weekend without wasting electricity.
I am not a UI expert, so there is definitely a better way to lay this out, but roughly what I am imagining:
