GMoccapy Block Height display

Guys

I had a look around, not finding a solution.

I want the block height to be displayed next to the Z Offset value in the main screen/ tools section.

Is there a quick and easy way to do this?

I am rather new to Linux CNC, so help would be much appreciated, thanks!

Gents, anyone?

You will have to modify the glade file for that. It would be easier to add a custom panel wirth a hal label.
If you introduce your panel as "box_custom_1) and connect the gmoccapy.blockheight pin to your label, your have archived nearly the same, without touching the original files.

Hi Norbert

Thanks, I would be happy with that!
I will give it a go.

This is related to Block Height too if someone can help.
Where can I insert a permanent(different from 0, on startup) Block Height.

Thank you

Thank you

If i do remember well, the blockheight should remain with its value untill it is changed again,

Hi Norbert, two holes in my table prove it does not keep the value in my setup

Any other idea?

Hallo crisiacuf,
hallo Rubenv,

I just pushed gmoccapy 2.3.3, to solve the problem.

I changed the following:
- the block-height value will be saved in the preference file each time it change.
- if the checkbox "use auto tool measurement" on the settings page is active, a new
label on the bottom of gremlin preview will be visible, showing the actual value.
- the hal pin block-height will be set on start up to the value, saved in the preference file

Does this solve your problems?
