QTPlasmaC Show "As Run" path in GUI instead of just following the path? was created by brian_cant_code
Hello All,
I've been working on tuning my servo-driven plasma and I was wondering if it was possible to plot the actual tool position during a run instead of what appears to be it showing the position it "should be" in? While jogging around it shows the encoder-based position and I was hoping to get this enabled during the run of the program as well -- is this possible?
I've definitely had some parts come out way-off (due to my tuning) but it would be nice to see that error reflected in the GUI.
Thanks!

You could try the following
custom python code
although I am not sure that it will achieve what you want. I am sure that this will not affect on the DRO's.If you place it in a user periodic file then you can change it on the fly as it runs every cycle (0.1Sec) whereas if you place it in a user command file then you need to restart QtPlasmaC whenever you change it. For testing purposes it would be fine in a user periodic file.

I'll have to try that out tomorrow, thank you!
