Norbert,

Working with the tool table today. There are a couple of things.

When adding new tool or editing the TAB key should add the number into the location and then move to the net entry location for entry of the next number.
When I try to touchoff X or Z it takes me out of the tool editor and does not enter this number into the tool table. It should input the actual machine locaton into the tool table.
When I have a tool already entered into the tool table when I ty to touchoff Z I receive a conversion error. Wrong entry for touchoff Z.

Is there anyway when setup for the lathe that you can put up the diagram for tool Orientation. I have to grab a piece of paper every time I setup a new tool.
Also is there anyway to rename the fields to make sense for turning tools.

T - tool number - integer, 0-99999 (you can have a large number of tools in inventory)
P - pocket number - integer, 1-99999 (tool table has a lower number of entries, currently 56)
D - tool diameter - floating-point, absolute value
X..W - tool length offset on specified axis - floating-point
I - front angle (lathe only) - floating-point
J - back angle (lathe only) - floating-point
Q - tool orientation (lathe only) - integer, 0-9
; - beginning of comment - text

Thanks fo the great work. I am really enjoying useing gmoccapy.
Jim

Norbert,

More playing with the tool table.

It should only allow one tool to be selected checked at a time.

The check box should check if you touch anywhere on a line for a tool.


Thanks again

Jim

Norbert,
i'm playing with toolchange and wiki says:
Code:
from <your_linuxcnc-dev_directory>/configs/sim/gmoccapy/macros copy change.ngc to the directory specified as SUBROUTINE_PATH (see [RS274NGC Section]) open change.ngc with a editor and uncomment the following lines (49 and 50): F #<_hal[gscreen.probevel]> G38.2 Z-4

but change.ngc is a small file with few lines

what i'm missing?

thank you for the great job.

Halo Jim,

the tool table widget is from Chris, I am using it only. I agree, that there are options, on my wish list. I am sure Chris is following this thread and may be he find some time to add your wishes to the glade widget. I am quiet bussy at the moment with the tool change with auto tool measurement.

I am on the way to push, I already updated the WIKI, and today I will add some videos on you tube, hopefully being able to push tomorrow.
I must finish the doku first, otherwise I will not be able to ask all questions ;-)

Please give me some time.

Norbert
