I have updated the test branch with your latest version
forum.linuxcnc.org/21-axis/16426-changin...-gui?start=90#162637

Colour changes worked and stayed for the next run.

What is the purpose of the ticker?

I really don't like the X in the bottom corner, it is a bit unexpected (for me) to have an exit there. If you insist on having it then you should at least create a tooltip for it and maybe give it a warning colour like the ESTOP on the left. Actually I think you should get rid of it as there are already enough ways to exit.

On my touchscreen the exit button is a bit small on the top right so I have it bottom right.
With no Keyboard and mouse around input cntr-q/Q is not an option.
If you have another suggestion i will revise the position or solution.
maybe exit word instead?

Any other suggestions or revisions more than welcome, the numerous installs I have done with axis,
namely on gantry routers, users seem to request a return home and larger buttons.

Most generate g-code with a post processor so do not frequently read the g-code, hence the option Cntr-h
to hide the code pane. Cntr-g to show it again.

How many users have touchscreens, I wonder? It might be plausible to add a pop up input panel with a revised
keyboard for the MDI pane, any thoughts. Should it double as a touchy type interface as well?

touchscreen

Ahh, that explains it. I think touchscreen is the only downfall of Axis. In that case I am not sure what the answer is but Exit would be better than X

It would be nice if the Control+h was a toggle rather than requiring both Control+h and Control+g

Clive, I can't believe this is still in my gmail after 10 years BUT:

Its quite an enlightening insight into Strine and Aussie Slang. But I'm sure it will be lost on non-residents of this great country :)
