How to change default coordinate system? was created by developer
Hi
I want change default coordinate system at startup - for example by edit value of "5220" number parameter in .var parameter file. I write these python codes in GUI :parameter files (.var and .var.bak) temporarily changes but actually value of "5220" variable remained equal 1.0.
Anyone has an idea?

varfile = open(os.getcwd() + '/' + ini_file.get('RS274NGC','PARAMETER_FILE') + '.bak', 'r')
vardata = varfile.read()
varfile.close()
varfile = open(os.getcwd() + '/' + ini_file.get('RS274NGC','PARAMETER_FILE') + '.bak', 'w')
vardata = vardata.replace('5220 1.0', '5220 9.0')
#print vardata
varfile.write(vardata)
varfile.close()
varfile = open(os.getcwd() + '/' + ini_file.get('RS274NGC','PARAMETER_FILE'), 'w')
vardata = vardata.replace('5220 1.0', '5220 9.0')

The proper way to setup the environment is with a proper preamble in each and every G code file... otherwise you might get a surprise one day. Of course you can put a start up G code in the ini file in the [RS274NGC] Section.
