Sounds like a Pathpilot setting then.

Are you sure it is wrong? PgDn should make the Z numbers smaller. (regardless of machine layout)

Definitely something in PP

PgDn has always lowered the Z towards the table, PgUp has always raised the Z. My Z home is at the top so all downward movement is negative.

That's really strange. Even for a Tormach machine the current behaviour you report is wrong.
You might be able to fix it in keymapping...

(Though this is just an idea, it might be a daft one)

The jogging code hasnt changed recently. If you want to try this, you can switch the direction in code. Check out lines 3748 to 3753 in tormach_mill_ui.py
Code:
elif kv == gtk.keysyms.Up: jog_axis = 1 jog_direction = 1 elif kv == gtk.keysyms.Up: jog_axis = 1 jog_direction = -1

One last thing I am going to try, I'll relink tic to V2.0 and see what happens. If my keys work with that version (the original I was on) I will investigate 2.14 further, if not its back to standard LCNC......

Definitely weird

Relinked tmc to 2.0, fired it up and hey presto my PgUp & PgDn keys work as expected.

Relinked back to 2.14, fired it up and they are backwards again.

Going to try the edit above and see what happens.
