I just installed mesact_2.1.5_amd64.deb over 2.1.4 but running it still shows 2.1.4-Build Date 7/16/2024 in the title bar. Any ideas? Synaptics package manager shows that v2.1.5 is installed.

Thanks

I just realized that 7/16/2024 is probably the correct version date for 2.1.5 so it looks like the version number itself that’s displayed in the window title bar just wasn’t updated when 2.1.5 was created.

Hi JT. Just wanted to say thank you for building this thing. As someone new to lcnc and with a 7i97t I was quite stuck before you added support

Hi JT. have found an issue with the CT.

using 7i97T. My first joint is fine but subsequent joints do not have the scale referenced correctly within hal txt file.

in the below snip I believe this should say Joint 1
