Lathe Macros

I'm using buster, I have glade V3.22.1-4 and glade-gtk2 3.8.6-1. I tried V2 macros and now i can see cycles tab, but text boxes are bit too small and i don't have that same "play button". I tried higher resolution but that did not fixed it.

Could this be related to the problem:
 

The option to show or hide the "Play" button from the command-line isn't in that version. There is a HAL pin to connect to a physical button (which is how I use it) but as far as I can see the button should be visible in the downloaded version of the files (possibly not for face and radius, though...)

If you run the sample gmoccapy config from the LinuxCNC config picker (sim-gmoccapy-lathe-lathe-macros) do you see the Play button?

I did not find where Cycles tab are in gmoccapy. Can you show example how to connect physical button to macro cycles start or how to make it work with Axis original play button.

It just appears at the top of the preview window for me

 

And the macros have the play button:

 

I like to use Axis instead that gmoccapy GUI, so i need help how to start macro cycles when I use Axis GUI. I do not even have that preview tab when i try gmoccapy. 

Do you have a preview tab in Axis? This might be pointing at a more deep-seated issue.

If you open the lathemacro.ui file in the Glade editor, can you see the play buttons? Are they set to "visible" in their properties?
