Thanks for the help on maximizing axis window on opening.

Now....would someone be kind enough to tell me how to change the word "Coolant" and "Flood" on the Axis GUI to read something different?

Thanks,
Kent

As in a different language or just a different word?

Try adding lines like these to your ~/.axisrc file:

root_window.tk.call(".pane.top.tabs.fmanual.coolant","configure","-text","newtext1")
root_window.tk.call(".pane.top.tabs.fmanual.flood","configure","-text","newtext2")
root_window.tk.call(".pane.top.tabs.fmanual.mist","configure","-text","newtext3")

Not a different language, just different text.

I will give that a try, but could you tell me where the .axisrc file is located? I performed an unsuccessful search for it.

Thanks

You have to create it and place it in your home directory. Don't forget the leading period when creating the file. It is just a text file so create it with gedit or similar.

.axisrc

Some good reading on this subject can be found here .

It s a hidden file, in your home directory. You might need to turn on "show hidden files" to see it.

It also doesn't exist until you create it (typically with gedit). However, didn't you use it to make the maximised-screen change?
