Hello,
AXIS has a selection box with jog increments (1, 0.1, 0.01 mm). But to select a certain value, you need the mouse.
I want to link a key on the keyboard to a value. For example, I press "Key-A" and the 0.1 mm selection is made. It's a bit like a shortcut.
I found a command to change the speed:
root_window.bind('<Key-1>',lambda event: set_feedrate(10))
This works and is exactly what I want.
Now the problem is finding the correct routine to call, set_feedrate() is for ffeed rate ... but what's the name for jog increment ?
I guess it's something like jog_increment()?
Subsidiary question: where can I find a list of functions of this type that can be called from a script?
Thanks,
Denis

The best way is to look in the Axis Python code: github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...cripts/axis.py#L3267
But whilst there is a set_feedrate (look for def set_feedrate) I don't see a matching function to set the jog increment. Instead the increment is set simply by reading the value from the UI element.
You can probably add code in the .axisrc file to both bind a key to a new set_increment function and to define that function. But I haven't experimented to see how that would work.

I _think_ that i and I switch between continuous and incremental, but that was just from glancing at the code.

ok I just tested, lower case i makes it go down in increments, and uppercase I makes it go up in increments , and neither make it continuous
so the command....increments through the increments
