MonoKrom - QtPyVCP GUI for PlasmaC and Mill

More
6 years 1 month ago #182773 by pinder
hello everyone.
I want to make a new gui for my PlasmaC Machine.
PlasmaC axis and gmoccapy work just fine, I just want to make an exclusive GUI. Can anyone guide me.
Moreover, other thing I want is that my system boots directly to the Plasmac, just like Pathpilot. If we want to desktop, there should be some key combination.

Pathpilot is based on linuxcnc if that can do it, linuxcnx should also.
Thanks in advance.

Update: 01/10/2020
MonoKrom is the decided name.
@KCJ is working hard in qtpyvcp.

05/10/2020
added VCP for Mill MonoKrom-Plasma & MonoKrom-Mill
You can install semi-working GUI from github
This is the result so far.
After discussions monochrome yellow is the way to go.

Are you willing to share that GUI after you are finished?

Yes, most probably for whatever is reasonable.

Just add the link to "startup applications" from the preferences menu. Or if you really want to skip everything else, use the "kiosk" mode for Linux.

This is a sample of GUI

I am targeting touch screens. After working out the GUI I will also share physical control panel plans.

Not that i am aware of, i think there is some work going on on QtVCP, but not on QtPyVCP , but PlasmaC works with Axis and Gmoccapy for now.

The PlasmaC panels are all Gladevcp panels so I doubt they would work with qtpyvcp.
I would imagine that you would need to rewrite it to fit into this environment.

I do have long term plan but that will be Qtvcp, not qtpyvcp.
