Fixing/Adding FE system - update

Planner:
- Added plotting the total unlabelled events energy consumption (not fully tested because of the delete function issue)

Logger:
Having played around with the event's selection script, I found that changing the handle from rectangle to other shape is a bit time consuming and it is easy to break down the system. Therefore, I decided to implement another shape, which is a smaller rectangle with the half-circle inside itself. It looks better than before :).
I am trying to find out how to change to mouse cursor to hand when we hover over the event's handle, then remote desktop shut-down :(!!!

Fixing/Adding FE system - update

Logger:
- Added the scale unit
- Added the pan (left, right) function. The slow pan should move about 1/5 of the screen. The fast pan should move about 1/1 of the screen
- Don't display the date if the size of the bar is smaller than the size of the text.
- Displayed the full date in the day bar if the number of days from the logger graph is less than 3 days. Removed displaying the full date details when zooming in to the certain levels (2 days)

Planner:
- Having attempted to add more information to the event title, so when we hover over the event, the information such as event's name and events' energy consumption should be given to the users . However I found that the title itself has been used as a dynamic role to link the event's consumption to the system. I just tried to change it and it has broken the whole system :(. Therefore, I think I need to come up with an idea of transferring the data between the front-end event with the system.

To aim:
- Finish the planner design on Friday 08/04/2011
- Fix others in Logger on next Monday

Then,
- Learn the study design mechanism
- Finish the study preparation till the end of next week 15 April 2011

Then,
- Start the experiment from 18 April 2011
