Lathe Macros

Hello 
Thank you for all the work done

is there a way to open a tab (for example facing) directly with a physical button?

I tried to do so but without luck yet
Thanks

I have a question. Is it possible for the machine not to start when I press the Play button, but instead to load the G-code?

I had the link for that one. Perhaps I wandered off this thread when I found it. It was a compilation of I think all of the macros showing the actual operation on a lathe much like the video you referenced, just for all the different operations quite a good video, no idea where I found it and can't seem to find it.

Thanks

I think this video does a good job of going through the macros but I don't know if it's the one you had in mind:

That is a different video, however somewhat similar. For a small lathe he sure is getting good results.

I'm a bit clueless regarding the available lathe type GUI's (I'm starting with axis), what version is this fellow using?

Are those the "lathe macros" he is using?

I could be wrong as I am very new - only ever got my first Mesa cards the other day - for my little mill. Cnc lathe is still in planning stages. 
So, someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I think the UI used is Cmoccappy indeed with Andy's Lathemacros. 

But also, I feel like I saw and bookmarked posts about succesfully getting Andy's lathe macros into Probe Basic, which is a really swank looking UI. But I can't find that info now or perhaps it was a dream;). Anyone...?

Hello,
I'm new to Linux CNC. I've installed the macros and can also enter inputs in the mask. When I start the machine, the spindle starts rotating, but nothing else happens.
Both axes aren't moving.
Can anyone give me a tip as to what might be causing this?

LinuxCNC 3.4.6

Thanks
