Adding tab to signals window in gmoccapy plasma

I've run out of room and want to add 1 or 2 more fields so I thought "Wouldn't be nice if I could add some tabs to one of the plasma windows?"

Changing the glade file was easy but I can't get the tabs to display correctly. The tab shown is the last one in the notepad but the signals are on the first tab.



I followed Big John's Glade tutorial and all that did was to open up a set of tabs in a brand new window so something is not right. Any help would be appreciated..

Hallo rodw,

please post the glade file you modified, so I can take a look.

Norbert, thanks for the offer. File is attached.

Got the same result trying to ad the probe tab window

Put this in .ini
EMBED_TAB_NAME = Probe
EMBED_TAB_LOCATION = box_right
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = the probe tool file from the sim.gmoccapy folder

got it working.. (facepalm) :
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = gladevcp -x {XID} tool_probe.glade

Hallo rodw,

did you send the correct file? The file you have attached does not contain any notebook widget.

Norbert, this is an old thread, you fixed that in 2017

Ups, but you see, I am willing to support and maintain gmoccapy

Norbert I know this and you really do provide amazing support! I seem to recall back when the issue was first reported V 2.8 had just been released, it took a bit to get you to acknowledge there was a bug. But then I also found some bugs in Axis GUI at that time when joint axis was brand new. Linux CNC gt it right and the GUI's took a while to catchup!

But at least it was fixed promptly and we moved on. I had a similar instance this last month with an opensource platform that I had purchased a module which was not coded correctly from the every beginning. and I had to ID their bug too!
