Gscreen - a GTK / Glade / Python based screen

Can you send me the original screwed up tooltable file?

I think this is probably nothing to do with Gscreen. I think I have heard of this before, it is something to do with a blank line either present where it shouldn't be or absent where it should be in the tool table file.

(I really need to get back to the task of replacing this bug with newer ones)

Are you possibly refering to the semicolon on the first line? I see this mentioned in the Tool Table Wiki. What is the purpose of this and if it was missing would this possibly give me this fault?

Here is a copy of the tool file that it would not read, I don't see anything wrong with it though.

We are trying to see if there is a sequence of events that is causing this, or how we are entering our data in to the tooledit page, example, does 0.0010 make any difference than .0010. Again, the only way to get " Requested tool XX not found in tool table" to go away is to delete the tool, and then re-add it, using the delete and add buttons in the tooledit widget.

If we find anything I will report back ASAP.

Thanks

Chris,

Did you get my theme working on your system? I was just looking through some old posts and saw one about the sliders widths.

I did yes thanks.

Hello Guys,

I am moving this conversation to www.linuxcnc.org/index.php/english/forum...87-tool-offset-patch, I am pretty confident that it is something with the way this patch is handled and not gscreen.

Thanks

Rick

Halo Chris,

Translating gscreen I noticed some messages like 'can't switch spindle on manuell while in AUTO mode'

Why that? That has been sorted out and is allowed from linuxcnc.
So I beleave that is a relict from the past.

I do allow spindle and coolant switching at any mode in gmoccapy.

You are right I have not updated that option yet.
