Annoncing gmoccapy 3.0

If you just use a normal mill or lathe, there will be no need to update, but if you use a lathe and want to use also a C axis, than an update will be recommend.

I need to do some more documentation, that is why I did not push this branch to master jet.

I just bought a 12'' touch screen (just realised its a bit too small), and since full hd looks too small, I've set it to 1280x720. Now the buttons are the correct size, but gmoccapy does not fit the entire screen, its cut on the bottom side.
I was wondering if newer versions don't have a fix for wider screens.
Can you advise on how could I fix this issue?

I updated linuxcnc to 2.8.pre and tried to install glade editor and edit the glade file to make it fit my screen.
I am using Debian Stretch and the installed Glade editor had support only for GTK3 and the glade file used by gmoccapy is using 2.x if I remember correctly. I tried without success to install the GTK2 but I was unable to find it, thus I was unable to edit the glade file..
Any suggestions?

Just install glade 3.8.6 and adjust gmoccapy.glade according to your needs. Do not remove or rename widgets!

Try this way : forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...lade-linuxcnc#112162

Which version of gmoccapy will be in the final version of 2.8? any progress with 3.0?

Is there a what's new list somewhere (on gmoccapy)?

thanks

Hallo Ruben,

gmoccapy 3.0 is finished, it is just missing the final documentation. I need urgently to find some time to do that doku.
I will push gmoccapy 3.0 as soon as possible to final 2.8 after that the only release I will support is 3.0!

It is quite to much work to support all releases.
