Gmoccapy - A new screen for linuxcnc

It is. I have a tab (a tab of tabs, actually) embedded in Axis that saves its state.

It might be a good starting point, just edit the graphical content.

Damn Andy, that looks really neat man. I will have a look at what you did to see if I am clever enough to figure it out.

gmoccapy_0_9_7_3_1 - new button order and layout changes


ver 0.9.7.3.1
- removed some print/debug lines

- new order of the button in Auto Mode (requested from svenakela)

- corrected some translation errors

- changed the order of the jog button and the DRO, now when jogging on a touch screen, the
right hand will not cover the DRO. Better handling?!

- deleted the button reload from auto to get space for full-size_preview, so the user can switch to
full-size preview, while the program runs.

- erased the close button in bottom button list edit, because the back button does the same

- corrected the hardware button behavior, was needed because of the new order and
the reason that not "clicked" is emitted, but "pressed"

- button edit offsets now shows automatically the offset page

- the buttons for full-size preview and edit offsets getting yellow when active

- pressing the button new in edit mode will make a new file in /tmp with the content from
[RS274NGC] "RS274NGC_STARTUP_CODE" followed by 3 linefeed and an M2

What more to do?
Working on an error handling similar to axis, at the moment.

I did installation of linuxcnc-dev according to the instruction, first run gmocapy everything was fine. I was amazed.

Even I did translation into Serbian. I do not have any shortcut at the Desktop, but all the time I am in Terminal running linuxcnc and open 2.6.0-pre edition. Now I wanted to open the program again to check the translation and somewhere during the opening a whole comp is blocked!!!

I did restart and try again and again and all the time is blocked somewhere in Terminal showing gmoccapy preference ( I cannot make screen shot since the keyboard and whole comp is blocked).

Even, when I wanted to run 2.5.3 edition to run my machine, this application blocking the comp as well.

Please let me know what to do in order to run official and dev apps.

Thank you.

Regards,

Did you install dev from a buildbot or did you make a separate repository?
Give a bit more information on what you did when you installed so we can see what went wrong if anything.

I used the instruction under point 2 at:

wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Gmoccapy

When I did:
cd src
./autogen.sh
./configure
I got a message everything went well hence I can run make and so on, so I continue with instructions and ran linuxcnc.

Now I am off
