Gmoccapy - A new screen for linuxcnc

you can drag and move the displayed toolpath and zoom in and out
have you a mouse with a roller for zoom etc
holding left mouse button down allows you to drag display

I have one problem with lathe mode: moving the gremlin display in lathe mode is disabled. Zoom works but dragging doesn't. I want to be able to drag it around (so I can zoom close and look at tool paths).

I actually see the same issues on my three turning centers, and when I have the mouse connected for programming, updating etc, it does not effect moving the gremlin backplot, zoom works with the mouse but not click and drag.

We haven't had issue with it, but would be nice if it worked.

Thanks

Rick ,
Click and drag works fine here

I just tried it on my sim machine, Gmoccapy v1.2.2 and I can't get it to move, and I tried the different options in the dropdown box, in the settings page.

Do I need to be using a ps/2 mouse or should a usb mouse work?

I also have problems moving with the left button. If I choose "...right move" in settings it works fine.
Though, today I was playing with these settings and suddenly left button turned out moving.
So I guess there's a bug somewhere, probably on Wheezy only.

Yep I see it now,

Right move, left zoom, middle rotate

That lets it move using the right mouse button,

Left move, middle rotate, right zoom will let the touchscreen with your finger move it.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04
