[qtragon]When should you use "Pause for jogging"?

In what situations would you use "Pause For Jogging" in the manual tool change message dialog?
Select this to rotate the spindle.
I'm not familiar with CNC operations, so I had some doubts.

(When using qtdragon for manual tool change.)

 

I think that this is probably a feature of the UI that you are using, rathe than a base LinuxCNC feature.

You're right. The question is about the qtdragon GUI.

One use would be to move the spindle to a more convenient place to perform the manual toolchange.

That's true!
If you change the AUTO mode from , you can move the spindle position.
I haven't found a useful way to use it yet, but it's good to know that it's possible.

This GUI not only allows you to escape the Z axis when pausing without stopping the program, but also allows you to optionally move and rotate the spindle when manually changing tools.
