change_tool() in Gremkin's StatCanon class is not getting called for some reason.

@Hansu
Copy and move might be needed by lot of people, as transferring part programs with USB Stick is quite useful even not being up to date
If only one file manager, than we should think about the buttons to copy / paste and change the location with the existing button.

So have now put all and only the the information of the G-code properties in that Tab.
I only have not decided yet whether to take the provided time format or parsed to (HH:)MM:SS (2).
Furthermore I think to add the elapsed time of the program next to the progress bar (1). I think this fits well there.
For the tabs - I think it is the best to just remember the last open tab and use this one at the next start than to configure with which one to start.

I vote for 4:12 min as time format or 1:36 h if time is over one hour
As for the progress bar, is it possible to put the elapsed Time or percentage within the bar?
I mean something like the number in the spindle feedback bar.

Hmm this is not natively supported by the GtkProgressbar, but could be done with a GtkOverlay:this
But automatic text coloring to increase the contrast is not possible like this i.sstatic.net/PJJqs.png
I liked the decent progressbar better and also the text was better readable. Furthermore there are now to many colors for the bars.

Hi Hans,
the progress bar is a great idea to get a quick glance of how much is left!
Could be to only show elapsed time and predicted time (I did not get where this value comes from) instead of a progress number as you can already see how much the blue bar is filled.
I implemented a timer for the elapsed time myself to keep track of CAM-prediction vs. actual time as well as the spindle load which is super useful to get to know how hard you push your spindle. Not pretty but works^^
The G-Code Size I don't see much use for (if the program time is not there anymore), what I care about file size or lines of code? At least its hiding the currently used tool in the operating state. Imho more something for another layer like inside the file menu?
Agree with the different color of the spindle bar, it could be of the same color as the others. As the color is not representing any state by themself.
I run a machine with Gmocappy daily for work in my small startup. Has been great for the last 4 years

There is an easy solution to match the panel color to the theme. See the last comment here:

The predicted time is available in the G-code settings, see (2) forum.linuxcnc.org/gmoccapy/55010-gmocca...eded?start=20#319096
The reason why I put the progress and the elapsed time there is that it does not need further explanation there and is more intuitive (IMHO).
The G-code size is usually not of big interest, I agree, but I let it there to be consistent with the G-code properties e.g. in Axis.
And it is not hiding anything, as it is an optional tab.
