Another GUI project underway

you are right, that is what changes it, but if i go lower it doesn't like it.. ie.. going to .125 works fine for 8 tools, but going to .083333 for 12 it just keeps spinning.. any thoughts?

I am not really understanding what you mean by "pocket index count"

Do you mean the simulated index in the Vismach?

It is generated here by a mess of HAL I barely understand myself any more

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/0f91c5...olchange/sim_vmc.hal

But I think it is the scale.0.gain 0.1 that gives it 10 positions between indices.

figured it out....lol was pulling my hair out.. wound up being the M66 L1 Q10 being to short for the 12 tool setting...lol fixed and now we are good to go!! Thanks Andy!!

Hi Lcvette

Just wanted to make a post and ask how the progress is going? Like a lot of people I am really interested in this gui and can't wait to try it out on my cnc mill.

This is what is needed to take the linuxcnc gui away from looking like they are 30 years old!

Regards

Andrew

Hey Guys,

Just got this installed and on attempt to open I am getting this:

Looks like you are missing some deps, did you do the install as s instructed and install the deps as well?

Looks like you are missing some deps, did you do the install as s instructed and install the deps as well?

Also list more info about your installation, which Linux version etc

Lcvette,

What are deps? (sorry) This is installed on linux9 (Stretch) with linuxcnc 2.8 as per the install instructions. I dont believe I missed any of the steps.

You need to install this -

sudo apt install python-pyqt5.qtquick

Hope that helps!
Jack

Dependencies, see Jack's post above, there is a line that grands all the dependencies during install, if you shipped it out is likely why you are seeing those errors.

Thanks guys, I'll give that a try when I get home! I did install the dependencies based on the quick start page.... But that looks like it points to something different than Jacks so I'll give that a go.
