04:46 AM Tom_L: 69 - 90F
05:02 AM JT-Cave: morning
05:02 AM JT-Cave: 65-88F
05:38 AM JT-Cave: finally caught that damn coon
06:16 AM JT-Cave: Tom_L, you will have to manually uninstall flex 2.0 to go back to 1.2.2
06:23 AM JT-Cave: damn apt keeps reloading 2.0 when I want to test 1.2.2
06:25 AM JT-Cave: hmm my script was installing 2.0 over 1.2.2 because it was newer
07:47 AM Tom_L: i removed and installed it after the ver change but the header still shows 2.0.0
10:12 AM JT-Cave: so if jogging is not possible (estop or power off) should the arrow and page key events just be passed through?
10:29 AM Tom_L: how are you going to know if it's possible? just by the mode?
10:30 AM JT-Shop: yup
10:30 AM Tom_L: sounds reasonable to me
10:30 AM JT-Shop: you can only jog when the power is on and you're in manual mode
10:30 AM Tom_L: i removed and installed it after the ver change but the header still shows 2.0.0
10:30 AM JT-Shop: just a thought
10:30 AM JT-Shop: yup didn't change that...
10:30 AM Tom_L: didn't know if you caught that.. doesn't make alot of difference here
10:30 AM JT-Shop: well I did but didn't push
10:31 AM Tom_L: easy way to tell if i'm in the test repo :)
10:31 AM JT-Shop: just about to sort out the actual jogging part
10:31 AM Tom_L: i'm here to test for a few hrs
10:31 AM Tom_L: just walked in
10:31 AM JT-Shop: I set it to 1.3.0 in the version but not the debian thing
10:32 AM JT-Shop: I have a couple of things to do then a nap then we head out
10:32 AM Tom_L: ahh ok
10:33 AM Tom_L: might take some close testing to catch all the arrow moves
10:33 AM Tom_L: that last fix you did to the right arrow seemed good
10:33 AM Tom_L: it kept the cursor from moving that way in the gcode window anyway
10:34 AM Tom_L: the others still did
10:37 AM Tom_L: 'enable keyboard jogging' checkbox could be an option in settings somewhere if you think it would help or make it easier
10:44 AM Tom_L: "you can only jog when the power is on and you're in manual mode"
10:45 AM Tom_L: also homing isn't required there... recomended but not required
10:59 AM JT-Cave: heading for a nap
11:03 AM Tom_L: later...
12:01 PM JT-Cave: just pushed a little
12:24 PM Tom_L: ok
12:30 PM Tom_L: works when power is on now
12:35 PM Tom_L: you must have added the same code to the rest of the keys as the right arrow too
12:35 PM Tom_L: they don't move in the gcode window now
12:36 PM Tom_L: ver shows 1.3.0 now too
02:24 PM JT-Mobile: Close to jogging
04:11 PM Tom_L: cool
04:23 PM Tom_L: haha if you build and forget to add key_lb and push an arrow, it crashes
05:55 PM JT-Shop: as it should
06:09 PM JT-Shop: I could do if key_lb in parent.children... or just delete the code
06:11 PM * JT-Shop goes to get comfy and get some ice cream
07:24 PM Tom_L: it's a good test to leave for now, i just gotta remember it
07:26 PM Tom_L: every time i pull it resets the ui
