Detailed discussions

TmfView

Base class to support signal managers.

TmfViewer vs tmfView

• [efficios] TmfViewer should be a common item.
• Do we want all views to be pinnable?

In a perfect world from EfficiOS POV: yes.

• Should it be consistent?
• Is it easy toimplement pinnable?

Signal management: yes User interactions and UX: no since you need to propagate the pin state and disable/enable features + deal with UX quirk.

• How do we unpin?

For the proposed patch set: resync with global context.

Other problem:

• different expectations of what is pinning?

Control Flow View Line thickness

• no time to demo
• Simple patches

Discussion of Active thread filtering

• Running group.
