Do Other People Test Gcode by Hovering? was created by BrendaEM
On my router-mill, I found it was handy to touch off in mid air and let the Gcode run.
Does anyone else do this?
Is it worth adding a UI button on an interface to disable the spindle motor?
Thanks : )

To avoid crashes leave out the lines that do Bad Things.

Yes, this is typically called "cutting air"
