MonoKrom - QtPyVCP GUI for PlasmaC and Mill

Since we can't jog when a program is running could you change the buttons in the jog window to something else after starting a program? Pause button, thc enable/disable, arc ok enable/disable, thc voltage set point, etc? (Honestly I don't even know if those thc settings are changeable live during a program in plasmac, or if it's even usefull... just an idea since we can't use the jog functions and it's a good chunk of screen real estate)

(Edit)
Oh, how about switching all the yellow to red when estop is active? Speaking of which the gui needs an estop button doesn't it? Maybe keep that particular button red at all times for quick identification? .... I'm spit balling here and love what im seeing so far

Default and only option to open gcode files should be USB, and no-one said anything.
Should I assume it is Ok.
This in view that user should get smooth experience. Like OEM solutions.

Network location can also be an option.

I don't think I have ever opened a gcode file from USB

A GUI should never have an Estop button, just an indicator.

What I meant to ask what's the smallest physical screen size that's comfortable to use?

I also think 15" should be nice. I recently purchased an Asus VT168H 15" touch screen which is nice. Native resolution is 1366 x 768. Only issue is its a capacitive screen so not usable with work gloves. It is very nice size mounted in an enclosure with an Odroid H2+
See www.asus.com/au/Monitors/VT168H/

Thats my plan for this when you guys are done..

I was also suggesting this.

But don't both axis and gmoccapy have an estop button? ... now I'm confused

Anyway, turning the screen red or otherwise indicating disabled when estop is active might be useful.

So It is decided.
It should remember last location.
But Still for myself I will try to stick with USB or network drive
