Have you tested other screens? glcannon is used in other screens.

I personally don't think having spindle stats in EMC Stat is the way to go.
You can read spindle HAL pins directly in python - a much more flexible way.

yeah i wasnt sure why that was needed either,I agree, as i just connect mine to spindle.0.speed-out, and other existing motion pins

Only gmoccapy, mod does not affect it.
How to read encoder position(for display spindle angle) hal pin directly in python, without python interface?
Need example.

It is necessary to transfer speed and angle values to the python interface.
Signal source will select the user in the hal file(e.g. spindle.N.speed-out-abs => motion.spindle-display-speed or from spindle encoder).
I think this(dedicated hal pins) is a more flexible solution.
About another way i know: use speed(commanded, not real) from spindle dictionary and spindle num(select spindle to display speed) from ini file.

Yeah, im using commanded speed as well

Code:

#####  Add spindle speed lable to axis                              ##########################################
#####  Figure out where you want to place it, we will place it in the manual tab for now.      ########################

# saves typing
W = root_window.tk.call

# this creates the spindle speed lable in the manual tab, with text SPEED
W('label','.pane.top.tabs.fmanual.spindlef.spindle-speed','-text','SPEED')
# this is where we put it
W('grid','.pane.top.tabs.fmanual.spindlef.spindle-speed','-column','0','-row','3','-sticky','w')

# we want it to update the speed more than once
def user_live_update():
  W('.pane.top.tabs.fmanual.spindlef.spindle-speed','configure','-text','SPEED %3.0f' % (comp['spindle-speed']))
  
# this makes it an offical axis hal pin and links it to spindle-vel-cmd-rpm
def user_hal_pins():
    # create new hal pins
    #mycomp = hal.component('feed')
    comp.newpin('spindle-speed', hal.HAL_FLOAT, hal.HAL_IN)
    
    hal.connect('axisui.spindle-speed','spindle-vel-cmd-rpm')

I took this from archeye's posts from a long time ago, and his work on machinekit and made it usercommand-able

Axis loads the most recent file opened on startup, so what ever you closed with, it opens with.
Add one of these to your usercommand file or axisrc and under [DISPLAY] in ini, add
LOAD_LASTFILE = YES

Code:

##########################################################
########       LOAS_LAST FILE   PY2 for 2.8     ##########
########   In ini file under [DISPLAY]  ##################
########     LOAD_LASTFILE = 	YES       ################
##########################################################

loadlast = inifile.find('USER_COMMANDS', 'LOAD_LASTFILE')
if loadlast == "YES" :
    load_lastfile = True
else:
    load_lastfile = False


lastfile = ""
recent = ap.getpref('recentfiles', [], repr)
if len(recent):
    lastfile = recent.pop(0)

code = []
addrecent = True
if args:
    initialfile = args[0]
elif os.environ.has_key("AXIS_OPEN_FILE"):
    initialfile = os.environ["AXIS_OPEN_FILE"]
elif inifile.find("DISPLAY", "OPEN_FILE"):
    initialfile = inifile.find("DISPLAY", "OPEN_FILE")
elif os.path.exists(lastfile) and load_lastfile:
    initialfile = lastfile
    print "Loading " 
    print initialfile
elif lathe:
    initialfile = os.path.join(BASE, "share", "axis", "images","axis-lathe.ngc")
    addrecent = False
else:
    initialfile = os.path.join(BASE, "share", "axis", "images", "axis.ngc")
    addrecent = False

if os.path.exists(initialfile):
    open_file_guts(initialfile, False, addrecent)

Code:

##########################################################
########       LOAS_LAST FILE   PY3 for 2.9   ############
########   In ini file under [DISPLAY]  ##################
########     LOAD_LASTFILE = 	YES       ################
##########################################################

loadlast = inifile.find('DISPLAY', 'LOAD_LASTFILE')
if loadlast == "YES" :
    load_lastfile = True
else:
    load_lastfile = False


lastfile = ""
recent = ap.getpref('recentfiles', [], repr)
if len(recent):
    lastfile = recent.pop(0)

code = []
addrecent = True
if args:
    initialfile = args[0]
elif "AXIS_OPEN_FILE" in os.environ:
    initialfile = os.environ["AXIS_OPEN_FILE"]
elif inifile.find("DISPLAY", "OPEN_FILE"):
    initialfile = inifile.find("DISPLAY", "OPEN_FILE")
elif os.path.exists(lastfile) and load_lastfile:
    initialfile = lastfile
    print ("Loading ") 
    print (initialfile)
elif lathe:
    initialfile = os.path.join(BASE, "share", "axis", "images","axis-lathe.ngc")
    addrecent = False
else:
    initialfile = os.path.join(BASE, "share", "axis", "images", "axis.ngc")
    addrecent = False

if os.path.exists(initialfile):
    open_file_guts(initialfile, False, addrecent)

cakeslob, thanks for this good idea - use hal.component and hal.get_value.
