Hi tjamscad

Your script works well.

Thanks, I guess that means you have it running and everything loaded up right?

Hi tjamscad,

Sure, all icons, everything is in the right place.

I just builded a virtual machine and tried gmoccapy under buildbot.

Unfortunately buildbot does not include all the sub folders from gmoccapy, not only the icons folder is missing, also the subroutine folder, so you will not be able to execute macros in MDI mode.

May be Chris can give us a hand, finding out, why the sub folders are missing.

It seems the buildbot does include the folders and icons - it's the config picker that doesn't copy them into your local linuxcnc directory.

configpicker is written in TCL language that I find difficult to read and understand.
I will inquire about a fix on the maillist.

Hi,

Today I played a bit with an ELO touch monitor and Moccagui.

Almost everything was OK, except one thing:
the Velocity , Feed override and Jogging sliders hard to tap and slide exactly in the place where its required. I mean the small button of the slider is too small to grab it with finger. That's not an issue when you use mouse, because the tip of them mouse is much smaller and you can locate it very precisely. But with fingers that was not an easy job, even when I tried to use the tip of the finger. My finger is not especially big or fat, I suppose it's normal . It was a 17" monitor and I made the mocca screen as big as I could (I used the simulated hw buttons too).

So the question is: would it be possible to make the sliders bigger or different shape?
Does anybody have similar experience?

Best regards:
James
