When you pick up the last pushed work (your layout) then let me know I'll post some files to try.

I can add INI defaults for rapid and max override.

Ok here is a rough test. Put this qtdragon folder in your configfolder/qtvcp/screens/

There will be a new HAL pin 'qtdragon.mpg-in' connect that to an MPG S32 output pin.

Set the styleesheet for the _local_ 'qtdragon.qss' or ''brushed_metal_color.qss'
They have been modified a bit for some added hints.

Notice there is a new button near the AXIS buttons to select 'scrolling'

Now click on the gcode editor, gcode display, file managers, or override sliders.
Should get a colored border that moves to each selected (listed above) object.
If the scroll button is selected then moving the MPG will scroll/move the selected object.
In the gcode display you can select pan or rotate with the existing button.

Still rough but let me know what you think.
also interested in your opinion of the axis buttons menu buttons.
X  Y and user coordinates use the press and hold
Z use a little icon for the menu.

I had to copy the files to /usr/share because it was starting with errors in the machine's directory.
In /usr/share it works fine.

A very cool functionality could be with MPG. I currently don't have physical MPG.
I wanted to run the virtual MPG sim_panel but it doesn't want to work, so I haven't tested how it works yet.

When it comes to buttons, the old style is probably best. There could be a delay in displaying the menu, although it can be irritating when pressed frequently (although these functions are not used very often).
The button on the Z axis on the touch panel may be inconvenient.
It's nice that the menu is bigger (maybe even a little too big, but these are only preliminary solutions)

Overall, it's a nice idea, I think it's worth working on.

Apologize for potentially derailing any discussion... 

I was wondering what the use case for the max velocity slider is.  I know of another GUI that uses it in place of a rapid slider (which is really unintuitive as they are definitely not the same thing), but I was just curious to hear what the use case is when also given a rapid and feed slider.
