Open source EEZ Studio for accessing your (SCPI) instruments
prasimix:
Thanks, that helped us to find out where is the problem. Used graphical library has issue with certain internal organization of BMP file. It's now replaced with another one that should rectify that problem.

The M2 version is released yesterday and ready for download (Linux, Mac, Win). Since imgur.com currently experienced a upload images major outage after the latest maintenance, I'll post more info (with pictures) shortly after they become operational again.
prasimix:
Ok, it seems that situation with imgur.com has been stabilized. Here and in few posts that follows I'll try to give a brief description of major changes in M2 version.
Navigation and general settings
Now, by default when instrument is selected and opened from the Home page, a new instrument tab will be created. Here is an example of home page and four instrument tabs:
You can open as much as you wish tabs, but if you'd still need to move instrument in a separate window you can do that by right click on instrument tab and select “Open in window” option:
Under “Settings” tab of the Home page you can now set “Locale” that is currently offer few date format and single time format for the selected country:
Search and content filtering
Search and content filtering allows you to faster navigate thru the content. Content filtering represents a list of various items (content types) and it can grow in the future as new items will be introduced. A new option for show or hide the right part of the window has been also added.
Content search open a new “panel” (Search results) where you can see the results. When item is selected it will be also displayed in the instrument “activity log” (left side). When search using entered phrase is time consuming then progress info will be displayed and result counter will be update accordingly.
Panels on the right side of the instrument window can be rearranged to share displayed space, and it can be even arranged as multiple tabs (it’s currently missing for Home page but it’s already assigned for M3 in #36). If you want to change location of a panel simply click, drag and move it to some other part of that screen area.
Deleting items
Items from the instrument activity log can be now also deleted. Simply click on the item or more of them using Shift and Ctrl keys and select Trash bin icon:
Note that deleted item will be in this step only marked as deleted and disappear from activity log. If selected instrument has deleted items you can access its “trash bin” using the following option:
Here you have possibility to see what items are marked as deleted, you can select one of more items to be undeleted or purged (permanently removed):
If you want to purge all trash bin content click somewhere in activity log outside of any item and the following option will appear:
Please note that this operation cannot be withdrawn. Use "Back" option to close trash bin section.

Impressive....
What about GPIB SCPI? for example using an agilent usb GPIB 82357b?
Sorry in advance if it was a stupid question.
prasimix:
Nothing is stupid in your question, indeed. Everything started with GPIB and it's still around. Our current problem is that we don't have access to any instrument equipped with GPIB interface. I tried few times to find something as second-, third-, any-hand on the eBay but without success. Other possibility is to locate somewhere in our close proximity (actually Zagreb, Croatia, that unfortunately isn't a hi-tech zone) and try to do some development work. I'm also not aware about any T&M rental service that covers Croatia (that is for some time now part of EU). In one or another way it should be based on sort of GPIB to USB or GPIB to Ethernet bridge similar to one that you mentioned or something else (preferably open source if you ask me).
