Gscreen - a GTK / Glade / Python based screen

I hope this is the right place for me to place this. This is very strange indeed I know but my debug terminal does not read the "r" key. I tested all the other keys but the "r' is not working. "R" works. Is this possible?

This is possible. One of my low power machines does this (and not all the time).
I have no idea why or a cure.

pushed a new layout of industrial -now the onboard keyboard can be available anytime.
new calculator launch button.

Shannon: to answer your question about gremlin options. It requires a little python code to turn the options on and off.
I am a little bogged down right now to work on it.
On a simulator, try Gmoccapy. Norbert has exposed some of the options, and has buttons to click them on and off.
i just can't remember what options he has controls for....

gmoccapy offers the following gremlin function as buttons:

- Perspective view
- X View
- Y View
- Y2 View (Only in lathe mode)
- Z View
- Zoom in
- Zoom out
- dimensions on or off
- Tool Path on / off
- clear tool path

What is missing? I may be able to find space to add more button.

Chris,

I like the keyboard on the bottom but it messed up your status panel. It will also be difficult to get more than 3 axes on there.

Can it be done so that on Setup, MDI and Program it only fills the space under the gremlin view area but still be at the bottom?

It didn't - I changed it.
Since you don't want screen controls for the spindle, You could hide that little panel, giving you more room for axes.
You need to do that by editing the glade file.
look for frame5 look under properties/common/visible click no and save.

Now if you do want spindle screen controls....hmm

I'll have to look at the layering of the layout for your other suggestion.
