this gives me a great start.....THANKS

....... ....halui-mdi-command-01 .......
....... ....halui-mdi-command-02 .......
....... ....halui-mdi-command-03 .......
an so forth ?

i'm trying to get it to home(i think of homing as zeroing XYZ)
without moving the table. is this possible with pyvcp ?

cool i will.

can i get an example somewhere of more then on button ?

i have this in custom_postgui.hal;

# MDI commands
# rapid to home button
net remote-rapid-home halui.mdi-command-00 <= pyvcp.rapid-to-home

# home all button
net remote-home-all halui.mdi-command-01 <= pyvcp.home-all

but it tells me pyvcp.home-all doesn't exist.
i'm guessing i'm naming something in the second button wrong.

i have this in xml;

<pyvcp>
<button>
<halpin>"home-all"</halpin>
<text>"Home All"</text>
<font>('Helvetica',10)</font>
</button>
</pyvcp>

if i could see the pin naming format better, it would help.

when i start emc, i have to home(zero) each axis.
i have to click on each one - x then "home axis", y "home axis", z "home axis"
i'm trying to be able to home all at once.
i did something before(in ini i think) that gave me a "home all" button on the left, instead of home.
but then i couldn't home each axis individually. so when i zero X, y and z had to be at zero. which is
not possible with me.(don't think it's possible for ANYONE:)
