Pathpilot Glade idiots guide

Thank you so much smgvbest.

I tried your advice but got an error at line 82 "cannot return from a function"
so i commented out the return statement...and then the whole case condition
along with line 146.

Sadly i still get "Failed to load /home/operator/v2.4.3/python/images/tormach_mill_ui.glade.
The following required catalogs are unavailable: gtksourceview"

I can install gtksourceview but then some widgets are depracted.

I can install an earlier version of glade but then gtksourceview is missing.

I thought it might simply be a case of opening the file with glade but it seems not..I don't really get all the commands that i need to enter just top open a file so i think i will continue editing the xml file.


Like I mentioned I have my machine running after building a custom bitfile and modifying hal so I'm just being nosey, that and my display is 1360X768 so i thought i could "stretch it" lol.

Thank you once again for your time, I think i need to build a gui from scratch to understand what's going on.......

Cheers, Ian

I'm not sure what the repurcussions are but by deleting the line in .glade that says gtksourceview required I can now load the tormach-mill file. I installed glade 2.4, run it using glade-gtk2.

Thank you, I'll gove it a try when I'm next in the shop....

I found the catalog file! opensuse.pkgs.org/tumbleweed/gnome-next-...1.17.x86_64.rpm.html .
I extracted the catalog file using zstd, it is attached for your viewing pleasure.

sudo cp the file to /usr/glade3/catalogs and you are set to go. As before use glade-gtk2 to edit the gui.

So have you been able to mod the PathPilot screen and then load it and it run OK ??

( TP

YES! YES! YES!

I just copied the XML file into the home folder opened terminal

sudo cp gtksourceview.xml /usr/share/glade/catalogs

and double clicked the glade file in python/images

now I can edit!

THANK YOU! gerritv
