QOrbiter manager is what it sounds like. It manages the flow of operations in QOrbiter between the different context objects and the threaded dce side of the program. It can be accessed through 'manager'

QorbiterManger is the Qt object responsible for managing the initial setup state of the orbiter, as well as containing some key properties and signals. It is also used and an intermediary object, emitting cross thread signals from the UI to prevent blocking operations.

Functions and Properties can be accessed via manager.function() or manager.propertyName

Properties

Properties are accessed by: dceTimecode.propertyname
Property Name Property Type Signal Description Example
appH int orientationChanged() application window height
appW int orientationChanged() application window width
sPK_User String userChanged() String of the current user assigned to this QOrbiter
currentRoom String roomChanged() The current room or entertain area the QOrbiter is set to
dceResponse string dceResponseChanged() logging property cataloging responses from the router
debugMode bool debugModeChanged() If Debug mode is enabled.
