SPINBOX DATA to G-Code Variable

When you put a value into the SPINBOX, you must hit ENTER to lock it in... otherwise no change.

Also... the SPINBOX will not effect the TOUCHOFF screen... they are separate.

If you are attempting to set the Z-Axis G54 HOME to the new measurement... for example 20mm as shown in your code... then the command would be
#TEMP = [#<_hal[pyvcp.stock]> * [-1]]
G10 L20 Z #TEMP P1

When the command is executed... TEMP is calculated... so if you set the SPINBOX to 20... then TEMP would be -20.
When the routine executes G10 L20 Z #TEMP P1 it tells LinuxCNC that you are now 20mm lower then the ZERO (HOME) position.

The current location will then be set as 20mm above the surface.

Is that what you are attempting to do?

Thanks
today I will test.

to Askjerry: With ENTER it works. I am :blush: :blush:

When I had an interface with spinboxes I was in the habit of clicking up-arrow then down-arrow to lock the value. (I think that this was before the enter key was mapped to the control....)
It's an annoying feature of PyVCP.

I created ngc. It's ok. Thanks.
