QtPyVCP Mill Touch V4

I'm starting to sort out what layout I want on the touch screen as well as adding conversational control and the Smart MDI. Here are some screenshots.

This is the main screens, there are three sets of stacked widgets, the upper right is the DRO and Offsets status, the lower right is all the stuff you might need and want to see the backplot and the left side is the main set of stacked widgets.


This is the conversational set entering drill parameters.


This is the conversational set entering in XY positions for each hole


This is the conversational set creating the G code. You also have editing controls for the G code.


This shows the generated G code in the backplot and the G code Viewer.


This shows the Smart MDI screen, you enter in say G33 and press Load and the name of the G code is shown and the upper buttons are populated with the appropriate words for that G code.


This last shot shows the help screen for that G code.

Excellent John! Will you be sharing this on your GitHub?

Thanks

Looks awesome, I like the spindle,feed and rapid over ride sliders. Do you have "distance to go" displayed somewhere as well? That and the feed hold I find to be one of the most used features of a control.

You've done a lot of cool work I wish industrial controllers had, great work!

Of course, I don't have any docs yet but you can clone and install with pip to follow along and test it.

Thanks for the feedback, I didn't even think of the feed hold or distance to go.

Just a short video showing my Smart MDI Entry.
