New results :)

I've made a hack to solve keypress problem. This hack handles keypress.
keyname = gtk.gdk.keyval_name(event.keyval)
		
		#self.treeview.emit("expand-collapse-cursor-row", True, True, False)
		selection = self.treeview.get_selection()
		(model, pathlist) = selection.get_selected_rows()
		path = pathlist[0] if len(pathlist) > 0 else None 
		
		if keyname == "Up" : 
			if path :
				rect = self.treeview.get_cell_area(path, self.col_value) 
				path = self.treeview.get_path_at_pos(rect[0],rect[1]-1)
				if path :
					path = path[0]
					self.treeview.set_cursor(path, focus_column=self.col_value, start_editing=False)
					return True
		if keyname == "Down" :
			if path :
				rect = self.treeview.get_cell_area(path, self.col_value) 
				path = self.treeview.get_path_at_pos(rect[0],rect[1]+rect[3]+1)
				if path :
					path = path[0]
					self.treeview.set_cursor(path, focus_column=self.col_value, start_editing=False)
					return True
		if keyname == "Left" : 
			if path!= None :
				self.treeview.collapse_row(path)
				return True			
		if keyname == "Right" : 
			if path!= None :
				self.treeview.expand_row(path,False)
				return True
		if keyname == "Return" : 
			if path!= None :
				iter = model.get_iter(path)
				self.treeview.set_cursor_on_cell(path, focus_column=self.col_value, focus_cell=self.cell_value, start_editing=True)
				return True
I had to make a hack for moving elements up and down because somebody (probably top level window) handles "cursor-moved" event... :huh:

Almost the last thing is drag and drop. It works in standalone mode, but after embedding into axis, right after drag is started somebody steels Focus from treeview - so it wont accept drag-drop event, or even drag-move (only drag-failed, which does not give any info about position of fail) :(

I've "solved" drag/drop problem by adding navigation buttons :)
But it could be much easier to use drag/drop...

Features are almost ready for the first tests :)

A lot of work have been done since last time and now we have Probing subroutines.
Including finding center of the hole, cube, finding tool's diameter. All subs are highly customisable.
Latest demo:

Unfortunately I do not have a working machine nearby righ now. It'll be awesome if somebody would be able to test it on the hardware.

PS Features now can run as a standalone application, dealing with axis throught axis-remote so it can be run-in-place without installing. just run
python features.py --ini=<path to your LinuxCNC ini file>.

That looks great, though I have little idea what is going on :-)

Haha :)
You are right, probably I would not get anything from that video if I did not made it by myself :).

Here's a small tutorial showing features of LinuxCNC Features :).
PS sorry for my English, it leaves much to be desired.

Nick, your English is fine and your skill is even better. And your contribution is appreciated by this newbie.

Thinking further of Lathe subroutines...

I have no experience working with them...
Are there any standard subroutines for lathe machining?

What about multipass cutting?

Is there something like G71 that I've found in HAAS lathe manual in LinuxCNC?

John, Arceye and others have posted some great ones in the ngcgui section. Inside taper, Outside taper, Inside diameter, outside diameter. Multi pass. profile cutting etc.
In fact some of us use ngcgui for over 90% of what we do on a lathe.

Hey Chris,
I can see them now on my home office computer, but earlier today they did not show up on a work computer. Odd.
Probably because I do not have Flash player installed there.
