change default view was created by Pentax
is there something i can put in the ini file, or elsewhere, that would enable the top view in axis to be default?

that way, i wouldn't have to press V every time it starts.


Thanks,
A

I don't know of a config file way. I tried a few experiments in axis.py and none worked.

You could put LATHE = true in the [DISPLAY] section, but I am guessing this is not a lathe?

Pentax,


In the file /usr/share/axis edit near line 2786:
else:
    commands.set_view_p()



And near line 4192:
        else:
            commands.set_view_p()


Change the "p" to "z" for a top view, or whatever your preference is...

To edit this file you will need to use the terminal command:
sudo gedit /usr/share/axis

My line numbers may not be exactly the same, but close I think.
