please forgive my stupidity.
after compiling I should have done the next step too I now see:
sudo halcompile --install --userspace sauter.comp

This seems to get me a bit further into debugging.
I get a Pin 'sauter_us_toolchange' does not exist error, which I don't understand yet.
as I did initiate it in the main hal file:
net tool-change iocontrol.0.tool-change => sauter_us_toolchange

 
Anyone has a clue of what I might be doing wrong?


 

here:

 

i cannot replicate, i get the value stored in both the var and the ui even through multiple restarts it remains correct.

I blame things I can't say but also the things I can't say with their fascination with American culture.
If you can't laugh at yourself you're coward.

Okay, good deal.  Glad it's working for you.

Thanks for the response. I am getting the line you asked about in the terminal. When I just tried using the space bar pause, it worked in all but one instance. I think you're right, it's a focus issue. In one instance, I had clicked the coolant button and then hit the space bar and the program failed to pause, but I was unable to replicate the behavior in the short session I had to test it this evening. I'll follow up if I'm able to reproduce the failure to pause.

But anyways, thanks for the help with this! I hadn't realized how much I use this feature until I didn't have it. When the tool is plunging rapidly, it's really nice being able to reflexively pause everything to check positions and the distance to go.
