increment 4 MPG jog wheels with Basic Probe

Hello,

I'm using 4 MPG jog wheels. I don't have a physical button to change the increment.
With Axis, there's a HAL pin to get the GUI information about the jog increment.
Now, I'm transferring the configuration to Basic Probe, but I can't find the information about the increment selected in the GUI (pictured).

Is there a simple way to get the information about the increment selected in the GUI?
 

Regards

I've already looked through the list, but I didn't find anything conclusive.
It was just in case there was something I'd missed or done wrong.
So your comment supports my analysis, but not really the right one for me. I'll have to find another solution...

Yes, that's a solution. I'll think about it, if I start modifying the code (I'm not very good at programming) or if I find a solution to add additional control switches (from my window, this solution seems the easiest to me)

the stock increment selector is a qtpyvcp linuxcnc widget. for what you are doing you might could use the user sidebar tab and make an exclusive button group using hal buttons tied to increment settings. just setup the pinBaseName for your hal pins in designer. that would allow for updating with out overwriting your changes with the stock widget.

The main issue with the on screen increment widget is how to keep it and a physical rotary switch synchronized, you could have the rotary knob sync the buttons but not the other way. you would use momentary push buttons, that would work bidirectionally as there would not be a static set switch. you could also have outputs to illuminate the momentary buttons for which increment was selected if you have enough IO. but there were so many scenarios to contend with that we ultimately decide to just leave the increment settings connected solely to the on screen jog buttons.

Ok, I understand, thanks for the information.
For now, I've decided to add physical switches to select the wheel increments. The wheels will be decoupled from the soft increments.
This is the simplest solution for me. I already have something that works; I need to refine it.

That's a much easier method! Glad you got it sorted out!
