We could set the first configured axis as selected:



github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...r_intf/halui.cc#L694

could be changed to:
    bool first_axis = true;
    for (axis_num=0; axis_num < EMCMOT_MAX_AXIS ; axis_num++) {
        if ( !(axis_mask & (1 << axis_num)) ) { continue; }
        char c = "xyzabcuvw"[axis_num];
        retval =  hal_pin_bit_newf(HAL_OUT, &(halui_data->axis_is_selected[axis_num]), comp_id, "halui.axis.%c.is-selected", c);
        if (retval < 0) return retval;
	retval =  hal_pin_float_newf(HAL_OUT, &(halui_data->axis_pos_commanded[axis_num]), comp_id, "halui.axis.%c.pos-commanded", c);
        if (retval < 0) return retval;
	retval =  hal_pin_float_newf(HAL_OUT, &(halui_data->axis_pos_feedback[axis_num]), comp_id, "halui.axis.%c.pos-feedback", c);
        if (retval < 0) return retval;
	retval =  hal_pin_float_newf(HAL_OUT, &(halui_data->axis_pos_relative[axis_num]), comp_id, "halui.axis.%c.pos-relative", c);
        if (retval < 0) return retval;
        if (first_axis) {
            // at startup, indicate [0] item is selected:
            *halui_data->joint_is_selected[0] = 1;
            *halui_data->axis_is_selected[axis_num] = 1;
        }
        first_axis = false;
    }

Seems to work in my testing.

Thanks for the fix.
It's odd that this seems to not have been seen before.
(Or maybe has just been worked around with dummy axes?)

Seems like that was probably the issue.  I can confirm that rearranging the axes to be ZA instead of AZ order didn't fix it.  I'll try building from HEAD in the next day or two and post here to confirm that it works.

Thanks for finding that bug and fixing it!  This was really holding me up so I really appreciate it.

I'm happy to report that building the 2.9 branch (incorporating the merged PR mentioned above) from the LinuxCNC github solved the problem - the mdi-command-NN pins show up and function as expected.  Thanks for the fix!

In that case the fix should be in the just-released 2.9.5 release. (so you probably won't have to build from source again)
