Aha, nice, it seems there hint display is dependent on which entrybox is active. A bit more hi tech than what we have...

updated to latest linuxcnc master 2.9.0-pre0-3494-glf7f98c0

Error on QTPlasmaC:
Code:
Error in file ./machine,tcl: missing close-brace Shutting down and clearing up LinuxCNC

(I am running it in a virtual desktop on my in house laptop {was going to bring the machine in house to update}, but I'll wait)

I was loading the Landscape and the 4:3 metric versions of QTPlasmaC if it makes a difference,

I am guessing that its a "]" missing somewhere (no line number given in the error)

Confirmed here after pulling latest source.
Robert, If you start linuxcnc from the command prompt, it will show the path to machine.tcl.
Code:
twopass:found /home/rod/linuxcnc-dev/lib/hallib/plasmac.tcl

So if you edit that file, it looks like you just need to go to the very end of it and add a new line containing
Code:
}

It opened for me then.

Sorry thats the wrong file location. for me its in
Code:
~/linuxcnc-dev/configs/by_machine/qtplasmac

If you are not compiling from source it will be in a different location and you probably need to use sudo when opening your editor.

Don't you love Linux? there is a command for everything. Try
Code:
find / -name machine.tcl 2> /dev/null

Thank god for Google!
