Gmoccapy - A new screen for linuxcnc

Actually it gets easier for me to learn as I age, I'm much less stubborn now.

Ditto.

I think you misunderstand what I said, it's not about me learning new things, when I looked at the icon I didn't have a clue what it did.

Not really, just pulling your leg a bit.
As you said, being used to ISO standards the fiduciary symbol would provide a clue.It normally signals referencing of a sorts. But if you have not used it before, I have to agree, it would be a bit meaningless.

Maybe a good solution would be the icon with text underneath. The only issue I see with that is language localization. I have yet to look to see if its possible but maybe you could put a dynamic text string over the button that is set from the language strings? Just a suggestion to avoid confusion for people who are not familiar with the icons and their meanings.

Hallo,

a good idea, but very difficult to realize. I got the tool tips, witch will apera if you stay with the mouse ofer a widget. I am just updating that feature, to apply to all widgets. This text are translatable and I will offer the translations for German ans Spanish, hoping to get the Serbian files translated.

There is also a possibility to display buttons with Icon and Text, but that will need more space. I might introduce with the industrial version an option to change between Text and Icon Display. It's a quite a lot of work, but if the user can convince me that it is necessary, I will do that.

Or we introduce ICON calles
auto_de.gif
auto_gb.gif
auto_es.gif
etc.

I check for the locale and load the ICONS by its country code, so you can add an text to any ICON.

That makes it easy to code just requires an image set for every language. Probably the best way to handle it however.

Norbert,

last time I sent you updated translation for Serbian. I checked *.po file and found 404 lines, among which all translated requested by gmoccapy at the time. Can you please advise which translation is missing so I can update it.

Thanks,

This is what I got

Any advice. It happened after I did 'git pull'.

Thanks,

Hallo Dejan,

The problem is a typo of mine in line 2023 of gmoccapy_handler.py, I missed an "b"
It should be "self.widgets.Combi_DRO_x.metric_units"

I am just correcting that, that bug does affect only the DRO in the preview.

Serbian Translation, after a push you will find a gmoccapy.po file in linuxcnc-dev/share/gscreen/skinns/gmoccapy/locales/rs

Open the file with poedit and edit the missing translations and changes.
After pressing the save button, you will get a new file called gmoccapy.mo

Send me the edited po and the new mo file, I will push the new translation.

Norbert

Hallo Norbert,

I trays *.po file in RS folder and as said before, there are in total 404 lines. However, in new ''settings'' there are things not taking translation as before. Having looked in the *.po file I found that old references making the same have been translated, but new lines in file could not found. See attachment. Any advise.

PS. Looking in DE there are less lines then in Serbian!???
