Tab in Axis was created by mmt
Does anyone know if its possible (and where to find some info) to open a program, specifically a web browser, in a tab or panel in axis?

I am building a linuxcnc machine that also monitors the input of several analog sensors to a dedicated PLC. With the PLC that I am using I can write htm code for a web page to view the values. I would like to view it as a tab or panel in axis as opposed to a seperate window. Also I have seen where I can open a htm file directly with Glade, however the PLC requires Java/Ajax so that is not an option. I think using a standard browser would be the easiest.

Thank you in advance, also this is NOT ClassicLadder PLC nor do I want it to be.

You can make windows with GladeVCP that can be loaded into tabs in Axis. Could you make that work for you?

I make tabs with Glade all the time, but I'm not quite sure how to open a program in Glade.

I'll post it up on the glade thread and see if I get any responses.

If anyone has any other ideas, let me know.

Thanks

Not sure if you can. What I was suggesting was to build a gladeVCP tab to look up and display the data you require.
