Lets you record what a binding actually does (e.g. "Save in Fusion
360") alongside the auto-generated label ("Strg+S"). Notes live in a
new "note" field on every action dict, purely local like profile
names -- the firmware struct has no room for strings, and
pack_config/unpack_config already only touch type/data so the extra
key round-trips harmlessly.
Two things had to be handled carefully: changing a button's key/type
must not wipe its note (all set_button_*/set_encoder_* setters and the
edit dialog now carry the previous note forward), and re-reading from
the board must not erase notes either, since the firmware doesn't know
about them -- versapad_combined.merge_notes() restores them onto the
freshly-fetched state by button/encoder index.
Editable via the Programmiermodus dialog (new text field), visible on
both the desktop card (grown from 84 to 114px to fit it) and the
browser view. MCP server gets set_button_note()/set_encoder_note() so
notes can be set programmatically too.
versapad_combined.DEFAULT_PATH was hardcoded to this one machine's OneDrive
desktop, which made the tool unusable anywhere else. versapad_data.app_dir()
now resolves to the running .exe's own folder when frozen, or the project
directory when run from source, and DEFAULT_PATH hangs off that instead.
load_or_fetch() previously raised when both the file was missing and the
board unreachable, blocking a fresh install with no config and no board
attached. It now falls back to an empty default_combined() in that case, so
the tool is immediately usable either way. desktop_viewer's
_current_profile_view() picks up the same fallback instead of re-implementing
a narrower version of it.
Also drop the hardcoded PROFILE_NAMES dict, which had drifted out of sync
with the profile_names already stored in the combined JSON -- renaming a
profile in Programmiermodus never showed up in the read-only/browser views.
server.py and desktop_viewer.py now read names from the same JSON everywhere.
versapad_data.CONFIG_PATHS (read-only interop with the official C# VersaGUI's
JSON export) is intentionally left on the OneDrive desktop -- nothing in
this codebase writes there, it's not part of this tool's own config.
(cherry picked from commit 5d14bdd826)
server.py and desktop_viewer.py read-only mode required the desktop
config JSONs to exist and crashed/showed "Config-Datei fehlt" if one
was deleted, even though the board already holds the config durably
in NVM. Add versapad_combined.fetch_from_board()/load_or_fetch(): a
missing combined JSON is now transparently rebuilt from the board via
serial and cached back to disk, falling back to the legacy per-profile
JSONs (or a clear error) only when the board is unreachable.
