Hi all,
QtDragon_hd: Nothing happens when I click on - File - Load Gcode Ripper. The following message appears in the terminal:

What can I do? Can anyone help me with troubleshooting?

I had tried to write the error message as text, but then part of the message text was missing. That's why I'm posting it as an image.

There is a bug that calls python instead of python3
in aux_program_loader.py
The line need to be changed to:

p = os.popen('python3 {}'.format(os.path.join(PATH.LIBDIR, 'ripper/gcode_ripper.py')))

Hi Chris,
Gcode Ripper is now starting, thank you very much for your help.

I now wanted to try out the Z compensation as a test. To do this, I started Gcode Ripper after homing the machine. I followed the instructions from linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gui/qtdragon.html#_versa_probe . As described under point 11, I loaded an existing Gcode file after adjusting the parameters: File - Open Gcode File

Recalculate can then no longer be clicked. The Gcode Ripper window somehow stops responding at all and is simply closed after a while.
Many messages appear in the terminal. However, I do not know whether these are related to this.

Can you please help me again?

That looks like a Linuxcnc error rather then gcode ripper. Does it do this everytime?
Is the program you are loading very big?

Unfortunately I have very little experience with gcode ripper.
here is the website for it:
www.scorchworks.com/Gcoderipper/gcoderipper.html#changelog

If you cd to the gcode ripper folder you could run it directly (in a terminal) with:
python3 gcode_ripper.py

Hi Chris,

the Gcode program is not particularly large, about 3.4 kb. But you have put me on a possible track with the hint to start the Gcode Ripper without LinuxCNC. The behavior is the same, but not with all Gcode files. I think the problem is with the Gcode. I have a file that works fine. I will compare it with the problem files. Maybe there will be a clue to the problem.

I'll check out the Gcode Ripper site, thanks for the link.

Peter
