qtdragon modify

Hello,
im struggling with the modification of qtdragon. I just replaced 2 buttons. Im able to use the new design and works almost everything well. The 2 new butttons are not working. I tried with the costum_postgui.hal but i got always an errror that this pin is not valid.So i checked in qtdragon via hallshow which pins are avalibel and i didnt found my button (action_air). i searched everywhere but i dont find anything like that. (Not even action_flood and that is working well)I wanted to search for the iocontroll but that is a executable file and i cant open it. (well, im not that familiar with linux).

I hope someone can help or give me some suggestions.

Posting your modifications would be helpful

 

try checking (property) Indicator_hal_pin option.
You can also set the hal pin name (property: pin_name), other wise it will use the widget name.

 

its not working.
I named my pin_name "air" and checked the indicator_HAL_pin_option as well and its not showing me anything in the hallshow under qtdragon.

if i try to make this command

net coolant-air => qtdragon.air

its telling me the same error, that such a name does not exist.

Ok can you run linuxcnc in a terminal and post the output.
Also what version of linuxcnc are you using?

i found a alternative.
It wokring but not like the mist and flood Buttons. (If estop is not hit i cant use the flood and the mist buttons until i hit the estop and i turn on the mschine. Well in my solutions i can turn on even the estop is not hit. But i can live with that)

I saw something interesstin according to mist or flood in the .UI file.           
     
 <property name="mist_action" stdset="0">                   
  <bool>true</bool>                 
 </property>

I didnt found anywhere "mist_action", only in .ui file. So i guess it is something implemented somewhere and thats why it was not wokring my setup with "air_action" because its anywhere implemented (in linuxcnc).

Maybe do you have any idea where could i find the "mist_action"

If you set the 'isOnSensitive' property, then the button will be disabled until the machine is on.

The mist button uses the mist_action property.
