Another GUI project underway

the new gui system is peeding up to a real further projekt
will it be inside a 2.8 release
is there a conection to the main system programmer

Not sure if this is helpful or not, just something I noticed when starting linuxcnc from a terminal.

92: YAMLLoadWarning: calling yaml.load() without Loader=... is deprecated, as the default Loader is unsafe. Please read msg.pyyaml.org/load for full details.

That is helpful, thanks!
I opened an issue to track it: github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp/issues/7

\o/\o/\o/ Hurray!! thanks to Turbos, JT and the author of the atc sim, we were able to get it working with probe basic with the M6 Remap the machine uses so now we should be able to get the qml the rest of the way done! happy day today!

not sure i quite understand your question or statement, think there is a little translation breakdown happening.. mind trying those again so we can more clearly interpret and answer?

thanks!

What's not working?

Andy,

Trying to figure out how to adjust the pocket index count in the hal file. bit over my head.. need to be able to change it up for multiple different pocket count platters for code testing. any thoughts?

You want to run multiple configs with different numbers of pockets for testing?

Hmm, not something you can do in conventional HAL. You could do it in HAL Tcl but I know next to nothing about that.

we just need to identify how the pocket count is changed, we can do it manually for testing since it only needs to be done once per carousel to get the qml code nailed down. after that it should be fine and would run from a traditional hal file off the machine index and home inputs to determine the counts and the remap files to define the pocket counts in software.

if you know how to adjust the existing hal files to change the pocket index count that would be tremendously helpful, we have been wrestling with it most of the day and are at the end of the preliminary work for the first carousel finally.

Thanks Andy!

I am not really understanding what you mean by "pocket index count"

Do you mean the simulated index in the Vismach?

It is generated here by a mess of HAL I barely understand myself any more

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/0f91c5...olchange/sim_vmc.hal

But I think it is the scale.0.gain 0.1 that gives it 10 positions between indices.

yes, the simulated vismach, we just need sensor feedback to run the remap, the qml animation graphic for the carousel wheel is now being driven by hal to mimic the actual carousel so testing everything needs the inputs and being stuck with just the 10 count is limiting for all the requests of the various carousel platters we have to do.

I will take a look!

Thanks Andy!
