There is a slowly developing version for qt screens:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commits/qt_ncam/

 

To install NativeCAM from that site, should I download or clone all the linuxcnc package of files?

I would clone the repository and compile

Does anyone have lathe working?

Run - python3 ncam and mill loads
Run - python3 ncam -c lathe and get the attached errors

Thanks
 

You could try this:

I followed all the steps you listed and applied the fixes. Now it loads both standalone and imbedded.
The SYS_DIR sets itself to /usr/bin so i changed it in ncam.py to be "/usr/share/linuxcnc/gladevcp/NativeCAM"

In lathe everything works except change tool and straight turn. When I select these icons they give the following error:
File "/usr/bin/ncam", line 4955, in add_feature
f = Feature(src=src_file)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/bin/ncam", line 1736, in __init__
self.from_src(src)
File "/usr/bin/ncam", line 1864, in from_src
exec(self.attr["init"])
File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
NameError: name 'parent' is not defined. Did you mean: 'reparent'?

Any idea how to reslove this is appreciated. Cheers
