My setter is just a little sprung loaded platform, very similar to the one shown here: www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/showthread.php?t=4569
Norbert you are right regarding the look ahead, if I end my program in G55 with no M2 command then the DRO displays G55. How many lines does the interpreter read ahead? And is there anything that stops the look ahead, M1 pause or anything which I could use in my programs?
Also, I renamed my preferences file, launched gmoccapy and changed settings as I wanted them, then closed and reopened. Everything was remembered except the keyboard check boxes.

I just did an update to 2.6.4 on my testing computer and went to the settings page, unchecked all use keyboard stuff, left settings and closed gmoccapy. Then I did start the GUI and all settings has been remembered.
Could you give more Info? Have you tried to edit the preference file with gmoccapy closed and then start the GUI?
Can you take a look after changing a setting, if that do arrive in your preference file?
Norbert
P.S. I do not know how much the interpreter reads ahead, sorry. Reading an io-pin and wait for the result should stop the interpreter from reading ahead.

However, if I then reopen the Gui, the check boxes are ticked again!

What release of Gmoccapy do you use?
I will check as soon as possible.
Norbert
P.S. could someone else try to reproduce that?

could you zip your config folder and mail it to me?
Have you tested on an other computer?

I have tried it on a couple of computers. In each case I started from the Debian iso 2.6.3 and Gmoccapy 1.2 (which didn't have the problem).
I have tried 2.7 with Gmo 1.3.2 (from GIT) and 2.6.4 with 1.3.1? Both with the Sim configs. They all behave the same way.
I can zip my config folder tomorrow. Would you rather my real machine config or the Gmoccapy sim?

If it happen also in a new sim, i do not need your config, as it does not happen here.
Could someone else please tedt if show_keybord_on_... are working as expected?
