And for 6.12 the patches from kernel.org are still required, other wise you can only select a low-latency desktop, not a fully_preemptible model, which would appear to be "a proper realtime kernel" suitable for a RTOS.

I've work through the image builder for 6.12.y, and I can say from configuring the kernel, that the patches from kernel.org are required. Depending on the commit you chose in the 6.12.y branch there may not be a matching patchset.

So it's not just a case of choosing the 6.12.y branch but also the commit that matches a patchset that is available.

Image below shows a kernel from the 6.12.y branch, commit 236f36133619216a5c8faea1a8c2c93c83efc2f4, which is kernel 6.12.8. This is has been patched with those from kernel.org and a patch, required for the build process to succeed, from Rods repo. As you can see there is an option to select the full preemptible kernel. Without the patch this does not appear. Yes while the sysfs patch does add the ability to report to Linuxcnc the kernel is "realtime" the kernel is only a low-latency-desktop.
As I type I'm running an image build on another machine.

A gradient would be good for something like a progressbar unless there's some other way to express zones.

Was messing with the qss builder a bit.....it definately needs an "open" function.

Also doesn't seem to be any way to apply the background colors. I assumed this would be part of "All" but it doesn't seem to work like that.

 

Gradients can be used to style buttons etc.

What would the open function do?

Can you elaborate on apply the background colors?
