1) I can do something like that (I've tried it ). It will take awhile to balance everything out again.
Changing one thing often changes the size of other things ( the page tabs got larger )
So it will take a little time and I will put the other buttons on top.
I am still not sure I will release it like that....I'll wait till I've finished it.
2) you switch coord. systems (you see the current system in the upper right, beside the tool number) then untoggle the system button
It then stays in that system. Then you can do what ever you want.
Of course if you run a program that sets the system to something else if will end up in that system.
How does Fanuc controls allow the operator to select user systems in manual mode?
3) yes it didn't work well with a touchscreen. Are you using a touchscreen?
by the way:
The PPA (downloaded package) that fixes the desktop pop messages is here:
launchpad.net/~leolik/+archive/leolik?field.series_filter=lucid
Not sure if you are using lucid (10.04) or precise (12.04) both are there.
I found when I turned it off I didn't notice the message in the status bar much.
With the PPA it stay up for 3 seconds (which could be changed too)
I'm not sure if you noticed there was a sound on errors too...
