all subroutines are running and homing without index under 2.9.3 also.
so oiling, toolchange and column control is done:



So now all what's left is home with index and some cleaning in the gui

thinking about how to solve the problem to conveniently adjust the Z offset when moving the column, just using linear scales als I always wanted was the easiest solution in the end.
So i skipped the manual part. Bought some scales and printed which did fit in the ode mounts for the pointer. Just added a third boost spaced with water for stiffness.



I can set the encoder position by M_code which I only need when I move the column without linucnc active. Which will almost never happen. Cause unlocking the column without the hydraulic as a real pain. The position is made persistent by ustoring it in a parameter.

I also can now move the column to a fixed or relative position.
While the lowest preset position can't be traveled over. This way I can prevent collisions when using big setups.
Same for the highest.

the preset heights are now set by the scale and stored and loaded in the VCP parameters hals analog outs als Hal lcd widgets. Only downside they are not updated until used once.
but that's fine.
