Phylogenetic Tree Settings Future Work #977
Description
For a recent commit in cypress testing (9ecaba1 on 1/09/26) in phylogenetic tree view, the settings local to tree view were synced to the global widgets (which are used when saving and loading a .microbetrace or style file); however additional work could be done for other settings. See the attached excel file for specific variables. Rows are color coded:
Green are good (the variable has both a local setting and widget)
Yellow are settings relating to node color (both leaf and branch nodes), selected color, and branch color. They have widgets (maybe not the correct one) and wouldn't be obvious for a new user to know how to change them. For example, to change node color, the user would have to change global color nodes by variable to none, then update the global node color variable in order to change it.
Orange are settings with only local representation and no widgets.
Gray are settings that are not implemented. Some of these could be done fairly easily (ie. tree-rule-show); however, others are probably dated and kept for historical purposes (ie. for tree-labels-align I didn't see it used in current or classic MT)
