First try this, replace the def forward function etc with this code:
    def forward_press(w, e, fw):
        if e.keyval in ignore:
            return

        g = fw.get_geometry()
        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
        if not fe: return

        fw.send_event(fe)

    def forward_release(w, e, fw):
        g = fw.get_geometry()
        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
        if not fe: return

        fw.send_event(fe)

    window.connect_after("key-press-event", forward_press, fw)
    window.connect("key-release-event", forward_release, fw)

Now that will only ignore press events not release events.

hmm i see press events use 'connect_after' and release uses 'connect'
changing those commands could make a difference too.

Hey Chris,
I tested your code today, my xembed file:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# vim: sts=4 sw=4 et
"""
XEmbed helper functions to allow correct embeding inside Axis
"""

import gtk

def reparent(window, parent):

    some extra protocol calls are needed.

    plug = gtk.Plug(long(parent))
    plug.show()

    d = display.Display()
    w = drawable.Window(d.display, plug.window.xid, 0)
    # Honor XEmbed spec
    atom = d.get_atom('_XEMBED_INFO')
    w.change_property(atom, atom, 32, [0, 1])
    w.reparent(parent, 0, 0)
    w.map()
    d.sync()

    for c in window.get_children():
        window.remove(c)
        plug.add(c)

    if not forward:
        return
    try:
        forward = int(forward, 0)
    except:

        if type is None: type = e.type
        if type == gtk.gdk.KEY_PRESS:
            klass = event.KeyPress
        elif type == gtk.gdk.KEY_RELEASE:

        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)

    window.connect_after("key-press-event", forward_press, fw)
    window.connect("key-release-event", forward_release, fw)
    window.add_events(gtk.gdk.KEY_PRESS_MASK)
    window.add_events(gtk.gdk.KEY_RELEASE_MASK)

Now xyz behave the same way (no oszillating on z anymore), but they still do not stop on the FIRST button release after moving the mouse into the panel.

hmm i see press events use 'connect_after' and release uses 'connect'
changing those commands could make a difference too.


No difference :huh:

Thanks in advance

Starting with my last code
Change the one function to this:
    def forward_release(w, e, fw):
        CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 0)
        CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 1)
        CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 2)
        g = fw.get_geometry()
        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
        if not fe: return

        fw.send_event(fe)

add this to the top of the file:

import linuxcnc
CMD = linuxcnc.cmmand()

This will only work in 2.7.X
It's a brute force way to do it but will be interesting if it actually works as expected.

Hello Chris,
I tried to use your on code on a 2.7 machine and got on the terminal the message:

CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 0)
NameError: global name 'self' is not defined



I suppose I have to do something additional?

I corrected

CMD = linuxcnc.cmmand()

to

CMD = linuxcnc.command()


Is that correct?

change them to like this:
CMD.jog(linuxcnc.JOG_STOP, 0)

and yes i misspelled command

Hey Chris,
thanks for your comments, It works now under 2.7. :)
I did my very first python programmning approach with some changes, so that this brute force event only takes place when I release on of the keys mentioned in the ignore section:
def forward_press(w, e, fw):
        if e.keyval in ignore:
            return

        g = fw.get_geometry()
        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
        if not fe: return

        fw.send_event(fe)

    def forward_release(w, e, fw):
        if e.keyval in ignore:
            CMD.jog(linuxcnc.JOG_STOP, 0)
            print 'stop0'
            CMD.jog(linuxcnc.JOG_STOP, 1)
            print 'stop1'
            CMD.jog(linuxcnc.JOG_STOP, 2)
            print 'stop2'
            g = fw.get_geometry()
            fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
            if not fe: return

        g = fw.get_geometry()
        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
        if not fe: return

        fw.send_event(fe)

    window.connect_after("key-press-event", forward_press, fw)
    window.connect("key-release-event", forward_release, fw)

This avoids error messages after hitting for example the esc key.
I`m still interested in a "clean" way which works also in 2.8. How should I go on?

Best wishes

Jan

Excellent !
Nice on the editing too - that is one reason why I like python it is pretty easy to figure out and test changes.

The CMD.jog function has changed in master requiring another bit of data.
It is part of the upgrade for axis to joints.
I will look at whats required soon for you.

I would prefer to see the code send out release events rather then assume they are jogging keys.
If someone changed the jogging key is AXIS it could mess things up - but thats a problem if we pushed this fix to linuxcnc.
At this point I am just glade we have made a positive step...

looks likethis should do it for master:
CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 0,0)
CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 0,1)
CMD.jog(self.emc.JOG_STOP, 0,2)

Me too...


I upgraded again to Master, and did some tests, until now I was not able to fix the problem in Master. I had to change again "self.emc" to "linuxcnc". Now I do not get any error message on the Terminal (the print messages are displayed).
Here is my actual xembed code (the interesting parts) I use for Master 2.8.
#!/usr/bin/env python
# vim: sts=4 sw=4 et
"""
XEmbed helper functions to allow correct embeding inside Axis
"""

import gtk
import linuxcnc
CMD = linuxcnc.command()

    def forward_press(w, e, fw):
        if e.keyval in ignore:
            return

        g = fw.get_geometry()
        fe = gtk2xlib(e, fw, g)
        if not fe: return

        fw.send_event(fe)

    def forward_release(w, e, fw):
