LinuxCNC Features - a kind of NGCGUI
I've made a hack to solve keypress problem. This hack handles keypress.
keyname = gtk.gdk.keyval_name(event.keyval)
#self.treeview.emit("expand-collapse-cursor-row", True, True, False)
selection = self.treeview.get_selection()
(model, pathlist) = selection.get_selected_rows()
path = pathlist[0] if len(pathlist) > 0 else None
if keyname == "Up" :
if path :
rect = self.treeview.get_cell_area(path, self.col_value)
path = self.treeview.get_path_at_pos(rect[0],rect[1]-1)
if path :
path = path[0]
self.treeview.set_cursor(path, focus_column=self.col_value, start_editing=False)
return True
if keyname == "Down" :
if path :
rect = self.treeview.get_cell_area(path, self.col_value)
path = self.treeview.get_path_at_pos(rect[0],rect[1]+rect[3]+1)
if path :
path = path[0]
self.treeview.set_cursor(path, focus_column=self.col_value, start_editing=False)
return True
if keyname == "Left" :
if path!= None :
self.treeview.collapse_row(path)
return True
if keyname == "Right" :
if path!= None :
self.treeview.expand_row(path,False)
return True
if keyname == "Return" :
if path!= None :
iter = model.get_iter(path)
self.treeview.set_cursor_on_cell(path, focus_column=self.col_value, focus_cell=self.cell_value, start_editing=True)
return True
Almost the last thing is drag and drop. It works in standalone mode, but after embedding into axis, right after drag is started somebody steels Focus from treeview - so it wont accept drag-drop event, or even drag-move (only drag-failed, which does not give any info about position of fail)

But it could be much easier to use drag/drop...
Features are almost ready for the first tests

Including finding center of the hole, cube, finding tool's diameter. All subs are highly customisable.
Latest demo:
Unfortunately I do not have a working machine nearby righ now. It'll be awesome if somebody would be able to test it on the hardware.
PS Features now can run as a standalone application, dealing with axis throught axis-remote so it can be run-in-place without installing. just run
python features.py --ini=<path to your LinuxCNC ini file>.

You are right, probably I would not get anything from that video if I did not made it by myself .
Here's a small tutorial showing features of LinuxCNC Features .
PS sorry for my English, it leaves much to be desired.

Did this fail to get attached?

I have no experience working with them...
Are there any standard subroutines for lathe machining?
What about multipass cutting?
Is there something like G71 that I've found in HAAS lathe manual in LinuxCNC?

John, Arceye and others have posted some great ones in the ngcgui section. Inside taper, Outside taper, Inside diameter, outside diameter. Multi pass. profile cutting etc.
In fact some of us use ngcgui for over 90% of what we do on a lathe.
Hey Chris,
I can see them now on my home office computer, but earlier today they did not show up on a work computer. Odd.
Probably because I do not have Flash player installed there.
