If you mean these they should be created automatically when an A axis is defined in the ini:

Sorry I wasn't clear about what I asked. I meant the keyboard hot keys to jog the extended axis like A.

You would likely need to add these to the 'on_key_event' function in 'bin/gmoccapy':

Code:

        elif keyname == "Home" or keyname == "KP_Home":
            button_name = "a+"
            if signal:
                self._on_btn_jog_pressed(None, button_name, fast)
            else:
                self._on_btn_jog_released(None, button_name)
        elif keyname == "End" or keyname == "KP_End":
            button_name = "a-"
            if signal:
                self._on_btn_jog_pressed(None, button_name, fast)
            else:
                self._on_btn_jog_released(None, button_name)

This should give you A-axis jogging with 'Home'/'End' keys

Thanks for that info. I have been doing that for years now. It makes it impossible to upgrade or update a machine if you modified the source. I suppose I will just have to do it again.
