Override +- 10% buttons

Has anyone done override  + / - 10% buttons yet  for PathPilot ???

( TP

OK I see how to change the value of the sliders BUT I do not see a way to get the current value of the slider. Any Ideas or hints ??

This is a janky way to do it, but on my Shortcuts page, I'm doing sliders at 0%, 20%, 50%, 100%, etc by mousemoving to a specific xy coordinate, then dragging to a specific xy coord.

Since they are bash scripts, you can store and retrieve the location you traveled to, which can be interpolated as the slider percentage.

Also, I've been told by the mfg that the current location of the slider isn't located anywhere, which is bollocks, but I have found that if you mousemove fast enough (which xdotool definitely can do), resetting the slider to 100%, then moving to another percentage happens so fast the machine doesn't notice.

For example, if you're at 50% and want to go to 40%, I haven't figured out how to find if the slider is at 50% or not (retrieving a previously stored value would do it, but I haven't written that code yet), BUT you can reset it to 100%, then travel to 40% so fast that the machine doesn't notice.

OK, I found the current override values in the Hal section. So now to make a new set of hotkeys

Feed +10%
Feed-10%

speed+10%
speed-10%

m_vel +10%
m_vel-10%

I now have hotkeys that adjust the overrides +/- 10% each push. I will post the code to the toolbox after some more testing.

Getting closer to mouse free every day, ( TP
