Turn off backplotting during jogging

Hi all-

Does anybody else think that backplotting while jogging is unnecessary...? I often find myself clearing it and thinking "there must be some way to turn this off!" So far the best I've been able to do is make the line black while jogging (via xrdb) , which almost has the effect I'm looking for -except for the black lines across the toolpaths!

So far I haven't been able to come up with any references to this on the web/forum (which of course doesn't mean there aren't any!), but before I start poking around in axis.py etc. I thought it might be smart to ask.

thanks,
Patrick

You can ook at the gnipsel tutorial. Last section. It can be implemented in your python gui code like self.widgets.gremlin.show... see attached list.

I should probably have mentioned that I am using AXIS, which I do not believe uses the gremlin preview widget.

I am pretty sure that it is all the same code. (both Axis and Gremlin use glcanon)

I think you would have to modify pyPositionLogger() in the linuxcnc module.
It makes a GL display list using colors based on motion controller commands.
glcannon uses this list to build the display.

It's c++ code.
