Subroutine GUI

The subroutines are simply g code subroutines with a few extra things on top for Dewey's TCL to work the magic.

As far as I know this is the only place that has examples related to Dewey's ngcgui program.

Hi John - been having a look at this today, can get the gui tabs to show but on finalize I get the error

Near line 26 of home/steve/emc2/configs/sb-lathe1/auto.ngc :

Unable to open file <od>

or id or taper-od depending on which tab I selected.

Any ideas?

Steve

Did you copy/create each one and put it in the directory you specified in your ini file?

Yep - it shows the ngc file in the gcode window but wont run it. It just stops with the near line 26 error

The only way that I know of to get that error is the file is not where you said it is. Look on line 2 to see the path that ngcgui is looking for the file in. I can duplicate that exact error just by renaming one of my subroutines.

Thanks John - found it, it was the TTT_Preamble path.

Need to mess with my custompanel - speed display is in the way and obscures parameters 11 & 12 on a 1024x768 screen
