I have noticed that the carousel images are not loading. Anything I should check?

confirmed, somewhere while fixing the sims folder issue the atc widget broke.. will get that found and fixed in the morning with some luck.  thanks for pointing it out!

I wonder if the resources aren’t being compiled so the ATC images are not able to be loaded.

Hazzy,

we did recently change to compiling before building to eliminate left over folders when uninstalled from compiling on the target system.  it appears to be compiling correctly here, wonder if the build is not capturing the compiled resources..  good thinking, i will explore that avenue!  PS.. your baby QtPyVCP is DOA at the moment and in desperate need of some Hazzy help ..... 


 


 

Updated readme file in google drive, added some dependency items to the initial apt dep install line. if you do not see the atc widget, you can rerun the updated line in a terminal to install the missing deps and it should all be back to normal!

Thanks all!

updated and now have fully functioning installation \o/ Hurray!!

designer now works with linuxcnc plugins again so should be able to use it like any working version you used before. if you do find any hiccups please post it up here, all of your feedback has been valuable in getting things sorted out! We appreciate your help and effort in doing clean installs and writing your findings for us to find and fix the issues!!

Be sure to Thank Turboss for his tireless work, without him I would be lost in trying to figure all of these new things out on my own!

Thank you all!

** Added a line that creates the linuxcnc/config directory folders and install Probe Basic Sims without requiring linuxcnc to be started first.  The updated Probe Basic installation deb file is on the google drive along with updated read me removing instruction line to run lcnc prior to installing probe basic deb.

This thread is now in the "Sticky" Section at the top of QtPyVCP.

Thanks All!
