Added method for creating parameter editors, which can be overridden by subclasses of the GenericEditor

I commented out the activateAntiAliasing call and added a call to disableAntiAliasing for the SpikeDisplayCanvas as antialiasing messes up the projection plots. We can revert this change in the future if we come up with a way to enable anti-aliasing without completely messing up the projection plots

Slightly altered the layout of the SpikeDisplayEditor, also I changed the waveform line width from 1 to 2 pixels

added check to ProjectionAxes::createFBO() such that glDeleteFramebuffers and glDeleteRenderbuffers are only called if the FBO and RBO have already been generated. OpenGL specs indicate it is fine to call these functions on non existant handles, like on the initial creation of the texture. This wasn't a problem on linux but it was for OSX. It was causing each projection plot to share a single texture and all spikes were going to a single plot. As when the 2nd projection plot called createFBO it deleted the FBO for projection plot 1 and 3 did it for 2, resulting in a single fbo for all plots.  This should resolve most of the projection plotting issues for mac

fixed mipmap generation bug for OSX. Previous versions of OpenGl wanted you to hint to generate mipmaps, OSX wants you to explicity call the function that generates them.

The AudioComponent now closes the audio device when it's not in use,
saving CPU cycles. Previously, background CPU levels would be between
8 and 10%. Now, when acquisition is not active (and audio device settings
are not being actively edited), background CPU levels drop to 2%. More
optimization will be necessary to get it down to zero, but 2% is still
a big improvement over what we had previously.

UIComponent, ProcessorGraph, etc. were still referencing the configuration
class (but not using it). Those references have now been removed, as the
configuration object will be replaced by a set of parameter and channel
objects.

The waveform icons should be made a bit thicker, but otherwise these look cool.

Whenever files are needed for recording, the RecordNode opens them. When
they are no longer necessary (either recording has stopped, or recording
of a particular channel has stopped), the RecordNode closes them.

If continuous channels are toggled for recording within their respective editors,
a "writeContinuousBuffer" function will be activated within the RecordNode. This
function doesn't do anything yet, but it will make it easy to add diskwriting
capabilities in the near future. Once a stable format for events has been established,
a similar function will be implemented for writing event buffers to disk.

modified the SpikeDisplayEditor and SpikeDisplayCanvas objects to make use of the new setParameter(int,int,int,float) method defined in the Visualizer class. Additionally the SpikeDisplayEditor now responds to Pan/Zoom and clear commands. However Pan/Zoom only work on the first plot. Additionally on the "all" button for the  sub-channel selector buttons now responds intelligently. ie. if you enable all it turns on, if you disable one it turns off.

updated LfpDisplayCanvas to conform to the updated Visualizer object definition. I simply added an empty method that does nothing to the header file

Implemented basic panning and zooming for the stereotrode plots.  I was unable to hook up events from the SpikeDisplayEditor to the SpikeDisplayCanvas correct... so clicking in the 4 quadrants of the canvas has the effect of zooming/panning in/out

fixed drawing bug where the upper voltage grid line would get drawn outside the axes if the axes were resized too small

Polished up the SpikeDisplay Canvas UI. I added channel labels for each spike plot, additionally I re-enabled the labeling of the threshold in the individual WaveformPlots, this is using the FTPixmapFont objects like those found in OpenGLCanvas. This is in lieu of using Glut to render fonts.  The rendering code is in PlotUtils.cpp.

the SpikeDisplayCanvas now supports scrolling! i had to change OpenGLCanvas::showScrollBars() from private to protected. Additionally I made scroll pix protected although that might not be needed.

Fixed the ProjectionAxes class such projection plots persists after destruction and recreation of the projectionTexture. This event happens whenever the openGL context is destroyed or the projection plot size changes.

Fixed the problems associated with hiding and displaying the spike canvas. Hiding and then reshowing the canvas caused a new openGL context be be created. This invalidated the handles to the previous Textures and FrameBufferObjects making it impossible to render to them. Each ProjectionPlot::plot() call now checks for openGL errors, if any occur then the Texture is invalidated and a new Texture and FrameBufferObject is created for rendering.  Additionally, in order for 'historical' spikes to show up after the texture is recreated I actually have to render the texture twice. I'm not sure what bug is causing this behavior.

moved around the SpikeDisplayEditor GUI elements a bit, removed the Save button and added selector buttons for each subchannel.

Changed drawerButton from private to protected in GenericEditor so that VisualizerEditor can detect when the drawer opens and move the selector buttons accordingly

Modified the VisualizerEditor to allow for custom width. Everything can now be scalled off this width including the selector buttons. This update is backwards compatible. I simply added a 2nd constructor in which the width is passed as an integer

minor updates to the generation of spikeobjects and the way that plots are laid out in the spike display canvas. Resizing causes the program to hang, not sure why...

Began work on the SpikeDisplayEditor. Buttons were added to zoom, pan, clear, and save the plots. Currently only the clear button works
Additionally I added a bunch of constants to the SpikeDisplayNode.h which will be used to define messages between the editor and the Canvas
