Warning before homing?

Is it possible to have a "ok" confirmation warning pop after pressing any of the homing buttons in the GUI?
Something like:
"Ensure no rollers are installed before homing axis!"
                                 Ok

I think that this would best be done in the GUI.
Which GUI are you using?

You _could_ use the "message" component to pop up the message when any HAL pin indicates "homing" but blocking the homing until the OK button is pressed would be harder.

linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/man/man9/message.9.html

A custom python component might be able to monitor homing state, pop up the message and also inhibit motion until OK is pressed.

I don't know if set_feed_hold or maxvel affect homing moves.

Thank you. I will look into this. I'll post what version of GUI I'm using when I can.

Gmoccapy is written in Python, you might want to look at just adding some more code. If you know Python, that is.
