GUI enhancements for long computations

[tpeulen]

Doing long/computations when determining informative FRET pairs in Olga is currently “risky”, as there is no

1. option to open saved FRET efficiency tables for a search of informative pairs

2. “safety net” that prevents accidental closing of OIga

Adding these two options could significantly improve the workflow / user experience.

Yes, that's a long standing problem, that I plan to solve together with a major architecture overhaul. For the time being, there is a hacky hidden option to load Efficiency tables. First, you need to activate Extras menu by creating an empty enableExtras file in the program folder. Then you can use the Extras > load results option. It is deliberately hidden because there are no safety checks if a mismatching results file is loaded. This option requires that the trajectory and settings files are loaded first and that they are the same as those used to generate the results file.
