Gscreen - a GTK / Glade / Python based screen

Do you generally start at the same RPM range all the time or its always very different?

The +- keys are a quick way to adjust the RPM as long as its starts close to the Range you want.

I made some changes that I may push - not exactly as we described.
For whatever reason I prefer to select the direction without starting the spindle -don't ask me why...

hmm maybe i should try your way on the custom gcreen ... good practice

The one thing you will miss with Gscreen is ncggui it at the moment is not embeddable.
Bug the authour about that.

Do you think user selectable spindle increase increments would be a good idea?
selectable in the preference page?

When I manually start the spindle on the mill it is always at the same RPM to use the edge finder... when I make a probe that might change.

If the Spindle button is a toggle for off and on and Fwd and Rev just select direction that works for me too.

Yuck... guess we need to make our own.

That and a minimum spindle speed. Most spindles have a minimum speed that they can be run at.
