Lathe Macros

I have them in my config folder. The quirks are ok except for the first one as you said.
The main problem though is that no code is posted. The message comes up but no code. I am trying to get it to work with Gscreen. Have you tried that before?

I don't know what you mean?

The tabs just run fixed parametric G-code routines. They don't generate G-code.

I thought that you post gcode to the screen like NGCGUI does. It did nothing so I checked on the auto screen to see what the code looks like but saw no code. Hence my confusion

In the Axis interface it is actually a little strange, the G-code preview window acts like it is running a program, and highlights lines in the currently loaded file, but that isn't actually the code that is running

Ah I see. Now I have learnt something new again. I am busy setting up the jogging of the lathe and once that is done I will test the macros on the lathe itself with Gscreen.

Have ypu tried this with Gscreen. I am getting strange behaviour. When I run the turn macro it says that the file turning.ngc cannot be found although it is in the config folder.
I am running RIP with all my paths set to the right locations in the RIP folder but when I load a file in Auto mode, it points to the 2.5.4 nc_files directory. I dont have that set anywhere.
