Hahah! That would so be my life!

I tried this with my full install of pp2 that I recently installed a few days ago from tormach.

I read you could and thought it was strange. It would not work for me so I thought they changed it.

Well then, I'll have to check it out again. What version are you on? 2.0/.1/.2?

Edit;

Can you also halshow? On a clean install?

I am on 2.0.1, 2.0.0 works the same.

The python source code for the MDI box also have halshow as one of the options, but I never tried it myself. Will check it out.

So you saying ADMIN HALMETER did not work for you?

If you want to see all the commands accepted after ADMIN, check ui_common.py file located in python here: /home/operator//v2.0.1/python
around line 200 in the file.

Thanks I'll have to check it out.

I also just typed ADMIN in the midi box and looked at available commands in the status text.

I've been getting pretty familiar with that python file I'll check it out tonight.

I did try admin halmeter (and others) as I recall and no it did not work for me. But it is possible that I broke something before I tried; I've been deconstructing path pilot because I want to export the GUI and separate it from PP2.

My understanding is that the images are copy protected tho. So that will have to be redone.

That's how I figured out where the development "repo" is located.

admin command on status only shows part of it, they don't show the advance options.

I think you right about the images.

You mean you want to use PP but with different GUI? All the glade files are visible as well, and you can trace them easily and modify. Will be good to have more than one GUI option :)

I mean I want to pull the GUI from pp and use it on a normal install of linuxcnc.

Just keeping the GUI design and capabilities. Create another axis;gmoccapy or gscreen.
