Bug on new Install was created by cutnweld
We just updated our table to version 2.10-016.084, Now when we pause mid cut the torch simply raises up and goes into reverse, backing along the cut path alll on its own. It does not pop up with the FWD and REV buttons that it used to. That does not work to well for us sometimes.....

I will try to take a look after work this evening.

In the meantime are you able to upload a backup of your configuration that is created by the BACKUP button on the SETTINGS tab of the gui?

Yes, here is the file. It might not be quite what you are looking for as we tried installing a little older version to try and get it going again, it acts almost the same with this version, now it stops when you hit pause, lifts up but nothing else. the FWD REV buttons come on momentarily then go away, it does not back up along cut path on its own but will not restart either, you have to hit stop and start all over. And once you have done that, the only way it will run a program is a program restart. If you run a program after fiddling with the pause it will only cut one pierce point, then raise the torch and sit until you hit stop, select the next point, run from line, etc etc. That was holes, I cant say whether or not it would do that on a nested drawing.

I apologize I didn’t get to this last evening, I’m off the next few days after today and I’ll have a gander.

What version did you roll back to?

I should have asked before, can you share your cut file as well?

Actually installed .deb file 2.10.0-pre0.6259.g34c07071bf_amd64.deb, it did not change QT tho, it is still on newest version. Update on action, it does not seem to have much of a schedule, back to reversing along cut path when I hit pause, it would be cute if it was younger but it used to be so well behaved :-) The reason for update was a cut material bug we didnt like on the older version, Is there a way for me to find out which version I had been running?

Snowgoer, I helped Cutnweld with the upgrade. We are using Buildbot 2 on Debian Bookworm (MX Linux in this case). I upgraded the linuxcnc-uspace package using Synaptic Package Manager. The system has a lot of other OS and package updates that could be run but I opted not to do this -- last time we did, we had a huge nightmare getting networking up again due to Realtek NIC drivers compiled with DKMS. So I'm afraid to try kernel upgrades on a system that's working. 

Cutnweld's table has been running very happily for several years now but we wanted to address a bug related to material selection so hence the update to latest. That's when his problems started.

As he stated above, we downloaded deb 2.10.0-pre0.6259.g34c07071bf_amd64.deb and installed manually. The QtPlasmaC version displayed is the same as before, though. Let me know if you have any other technical questions and I'll try to answer them.

I definitely see some oddities surrounding pausing here on my test config in a Virtual Machine without even having to simulate your exact configuration.

Let me do some digging and find out when it broke, and then go from there to see what needs to change to fix it.

This may be really quick or take me a few days, it's honestly hard to say ...

Just pushed a commit that should fix this (and a few other issues).  This is entirely my fault, caused by a refactor of the way we were doing button interlocking (enable/disable).  As it turns out I trimmed too much fat and completely broke cut recovery.  I am honestly not sure how I missed this, but I appreciate you pointing it out nonetheless.  It's been broken since the beginning of Feb 2026.  Which either means not many people use QtPlasmaC on the master branch, or not many have cut issues requiring cut recovery, or both... 

I apologize for the inconvenience I caused.  

Please let me know if you run into any other issues!

Happy cutting.

-Greg

Thanks a ton, Greg. How soon will this hit Buildbot2, you figure?

Happy to help.

I honestly have no idea, as I don't use the buildbots/have any insight into them. If it/they are working it should be built by now.

You don't have to rely on them by the way. Building the project yourself is pretty easy and straightforward.
