Keep in your mind that I just started working on this a couple of weeks ago and only work on it for about an hour each morning while having my coffee... and it's you that pointed me to the HAL pins so I'm going to finish that up first.

Still haven't gotten around to really diving into this yet, but once I get the firmware sorted out on my new controll panel I'm gonna see what this can do.

I spent the last week trying to add custom widgets to Qt Designer only to find out that Qt6 Designer is somewhat broken and you can't combine Qt5 and Qt6 so I gave up on that idea.
So I came up with an even easier way to set the precision of number labels like the DRO labels this morning and I'm really pleased with the result.
Going to take a few days to clean up all the status label code then I'll work on the menu actions.

Have you tried QTcreator? QTVCP mentions using designer but I had some odd results with designer. Creator seems to work better but for whatever reason QTVCP widgets don't show up in creator and I'm not sure how to configure it to do so. The UI I worked on with Creator didn't use QTVCP anyway so it didn't matter....just mentioning it.I spent the last week trying to add custom widgets to Qt Designer only to find out that Qt6 Designer is somewhat broken and you can't combine Qt5 and Qt6 so I gave up on that idea.

Qt Creator is for C++ and Qt Designer is for python.

Ah OK. I've never played with the code portion myself, I just noticed that creator seems to do a better job loading UI files.

Probably a stupid question but would it be possible to embed another program window in this UI?
I've got another project on hold I plan on getting back to at some point.
forum.linuxcnc.org/pnp/48799-openpnp-wit...-linuxcncrsh?start=0
It's a PnP machine that runs both LinuxCNC and OpenPnP. Iforce2d did some work to adapt linuxcncrsh to communicate with OpenPnP over TCP. When I was messing with it, it was kind of a pain to switch windows if I needed to do something on the Axis GUI.

With python you can run programs, not sure about embedding a program.
