Starting Wizards up again?? was created by Vmax549
Is anyone interested in getting Wizards up and running again ??? Do you have a favorite function the conversational pages do not cover and you would like to see as a wizard ??

I’m not sure I’m aware of these wizards you speak of?

They were also know as Gcode Generators , Conversational Wizards. When called a window opens up and all the parameters to do the function are displayed. You then fill in the blanks and the Wizard will generate the Gcode program for you ready to run.
The advantage over having a Conversational section in the control is IF there is no function that you need, you are out of luck. With Wizards you can build it once and have it forever. Also you can share Wizards with others. If you need a special function to make life easier MAYBE someone has already made it.???
Conversational programming has been around for a long time now. Wizards just make it easier to have.
Just my Opinion, Your mileage may vary.

Here are some examples.
wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Simple...tors#Facing_Software.
Personally I do not do the drawing part I just program out the Gcode . You can see the pathways when you load it in PathPilot. That makes it simpler to create.
