I think you would have to do both.
If the feature is not GUI specific and is part of the GUI core then adjusting it should never be tied to a GUI. That breaks the modular design of Linuxcnc.
Something like
Code:
if self.canon:
g = self.canon
x,y,z = 0,1,2
cone_scale = max(g.max_extents[x] - g.min_extents[x],
g.max_extents[y] - g.min_extents[y],
g.max_extents[z] - g.min_extents[z],
2 ) * .5 # <- THIS HERE
cone_scale = cone_scale * tool-scale
else:
cone_scale = 1
###------------ INI FILE -------------------
[DISPLAY]
# tool-scale changes the screen "cone" that represents the tool. Defaults to 1.0 if not present
tool-scale = 0.5
Does the other side of the scale if statement need scaling?
