To add a new subroutine to ngcgui, do the following:
- press New Tab
- if it has a preamble file, press Select Preamble
- press Select Subfile
- if it has a postamble, press Select Post
- then Create Feature
- then Finalize Gcode
If the SEND checkbox is checked, the created program will be loaded into LinuxCNC. If the SAVE checkbox is checked, the program will be saved to a file.
NGCGUI programs can be auto loaded when QtDragon starts by having the following in your INI file:
Code:
[DISPLAY]
NGCGUI_PREAMBLE name_of_preamble.ngc
NGCGUI_SUBFILE name_of_subfile.ngc
NGCGUI_SUBFILE another_subfile.gcmc
GCMC_INCLUDE_PATH ~/path_to/gcmc_lib
