NCGGUI and QtDragon

Chris & Jim,
thanks.
almost have it working.  just get one error.   see the image.
a file of M110 exists but I don't see anything calling it.   at least not in the ngc routines....
also, since the premble file can be specified in the .ini, it would be nice to have it show in the left panel in the PRE line.
could the POST be specified, and show also?  just thoughts.


Note: 
Jim, don't forget the '=' between the 'NGCGUI_PREAMBLE'  and  'name_of_preamble.ngc'
Chris.  a couple of misspelled in your doc.  Look for #<fedrate>   and a few others....

preamble cannot be preset from the INI in 2.9 code.
Jim's code has advanced since then.

Without any idea what subroutines you are using I can't really help much with debugging.
The subroutine may call another subroutine that calls the M code.
The reason the M110 doesn't work may be because the INI setting SUBROUTINE_PATH =
doesn't point to where the M code is defined.

I will fix the misspellings thanks

wow, you're on. thanks
I am just trying the slot and helix routines for examples.
I will move the m110 code to the subroutine folder and see what happens.
I was just entering another problem and the editor buggered and lost it. I will retype in a few minutes.

ok, that worked. I move M110.ngc to the subroutine folder.....

great.You could also add the path where the M110 was originally to SUBROUTINE_PATH

ok, back.  2 more smallish problems....

I cannot get the overall dragon screen location option to work.  I've tried lots of variations.
.....DISPLAY = qtvcp  -d  -g 1600x1200+0+0  dragon  -u dragon_handler.py
my 'dragon' panel is slightly resizeable.  that is the largest is can get.  no matter what I try, it still opens in it's smallest size in the upper right of the monitor.  Any clue???

also, recall that I start up a small ferror panel via the post_gui hal file.  it works good. i like it.
but it does not close when I close linuxcnc.  I have to close it seperately with the X button, then it throw an error.
see the image.
