blend is the code that I added to primitives.py

I made a small modification to the code and now it works properly.
I was hoping that the toolpath would be visible inside the solid, but this is not the case...
class Color(Collection):
def __init__(self, color, parts):
self.color = color
Collection.__init__(self, parts)
def apply(self):
GL.glPushAttrib(GL.GL_LIGHTING_BIT)
GL.glMaterialfv(GL.GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL.GL_AMBIENT_AND_DIFFUSE, self.color)
GL.glEnable(GL.GL_BLEND)
GL.glBlendFunc(GL.GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL.GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA)
def unapply(self):
GL.glPopAttrib()
GL.glDisable(GL.GL_BLEND)

Interesting, the tool seems to be cut off too.

May have something to do with 'depth testing' as seen in this image where some of the background scene is not visible through the red tinted glass:

Just noticed the spelling in the article is a tad strange.

Maybe the order of the parts can do it.
I see you can see the base and chuck through the material but not the column or other chuck.
probably there is a opengl command to directly set Zdepth but like you i know just enough to get it to mostly work

I will leave the topic of transparency for later, I have an idea how to solve it differently.
Please tell me how to easily read the x and y movement values from the "setup/properties" tab? I need these values to automatically generate the dimensions of the workpiece in the A-axis holder.
The second problem is the disappearing tool path in qtvismach. The same thing happens as in the preview window in qtdragon. A longer toolpath history is needed, or it doesn't disappear at all.

You can get them from STATUS, as long as the preview window is in the same python context.
Meaning you would need to have the vismach window embedded in, or loaded from, qtdragon.
The normal qtvcp embedding should work, getting a separate window is custom work.
then:
STATUS.connect('graphics-gcode-properties', lambda w, d: self.update_gcode_properties(d))
would give you the raw information in the function update_gcode_properties().
You can see how it was done in qtdragon_handler.py, but something like this:
