09:24 AM Lcvette: hey guys im kinda stumped on something in this post output
09:24 AM Lcvette: it seems to be adding a T5nafter the T33 M6 which is the correct tool for the operation
09:24 AM Lcvette: any idea why that is?
09:24 AM Lcvette: this is the linuxcnc fusion 360 post processor
09:54 AM hazzy-m: That’s strange....
09:54 AM hazzy-m: Have you had a look at the post?
09:55 AM hazzy-m: BTW morning from the atomic city
10:01 AM Lcvette: yeah i resolved it
10:02 AM Lcvette: it does that if you don't deselect "preload tool"
10:02 AM Lcvette: morning

10:03 AM Lcvette: hazzy: ^^^
10:28 AM Guido[m]1: The t5 shouldn’t be a problem though, right? It’s just preload, for atc systems that might be useful (see carousel component)
10:39 AM roguish[m]: hazzy: atomic city? scary. hey, I have my side qtpyvcy panel working alongside a standard axis, but can't figure out how to get it to work with Mill_touch_v6. Should it be embedded in the .ini with an APP line? or can it be started up after _v6 is running. with a script like I do for the axis. suggestion?
10:41 AM hazzy-m: roguish: add it as a window in the yaml file
10:43 AM hazzy-m: https://github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp/blob/master/qtpyvcp/yaml_lib/default_config.yml#L9
10:44 AM hazzy-m: I sent you an example a while back , but I can’t find it
10:44 AM hazzy-m: What you do is add another entry below the mainwindow one
10:44 AM hazzy-m: And have it load from a ui file
10:45 AM roguish[m]: just ran out to the shop (garage) and turned on the mill computer. i can access all the actual files.
10:50 AM roguish[m]: file location question..... currently i have my .ini + hals all in a directory in configs. mill_touch_v6 is a directory in my user home. can I consolidate mill_touch_v6 to the came directory as the .ini? if I move it do I need to do that pip install thing again?
10:52 AM hazzy-m: I wouldn’t move it
10:53 AM hazzy-m: You’re machine config should be kept separate from your VCP config as much as possible
10:53 AM * roguish[m] uploaded an image: image.png (49KB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/hpUUJIpgqsSivawREtFUrBvI >
10:53 AM hazzy-m: The reason for that is so you can revision control them separately
10:54 AM hazzy-m: Do you have a custom_config.yaml in your config dir?
10:55 AM roguish[m]: mill_touch_v6 has one in its files. I have one for my gui panel in its directory
10:56 AM roguish[m]: that image above is the mill_touch_v6 yml file, windows section.
10:58 AM roguish[m]: so do I add another 'mainwidow' section, with reference to my side gui?
11:00 AM hazzy-m: Add it to a custom_config.yaml file in your config dir
11:00 AM hazzy-m: New file with this

11:02 AM hazzy-m: Shoot
11:02 AM hazzy-m: Doesn’t keep fromating on noble
11:04 AM TurBoss: o/
11:04 AM roguish[m]: ok, so a yaml file pointing to my side gui. ok, what points to that yaml file?
11:04 AM roguish[m]: a line in my .ini ?
11:05 AM hazzy-m: Yes
11:05 AM hazzy-m: See
11:06 AM hazzy-m: https://github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp/blob/master/sim/xyz.ini#L29
11:06 AM * hazzy-m is struggling lol
11:10 AM roguish[m]: just added that to my .ini so I don't forget it......and copied the converstion....
11:11 AM roguish[m]: thanks. it just gets confusing with the files all over the place pointing back and forth......
11:20 AM * hazzy-m is on laptop now
11:21 AM hazzy-m: you can put VCP and the machine config in the same place, but then if you want to use the same VCP with another machine you have to sort everything back out
11:23 AM roguish[m]: ok. with normal lcnc most of these addons like nativecam, probescreen, ncggui, etc. are place in subdirectories within the .ini config directory (some have sym links out)
11:24 AM hazzy-m: yes I know, and you can do the same with QtPyVCP if you prefer
11:24 AM roguish[m]: I try to keep it all simple and minimize the files spread all around. I just have 1 mill, so don't worry about different versions.
11:24 AM hazzy-m: especially if your not planning to share your VCP with other people

11:26 AM roguish[m]: with JT's mill_touch, does it have to be installed with the pip thing? or can the files (directories, etc) just be moved around? so long as the pathes in the files are correct.
11:28 AM hazzy-m: its much easier to install with with mill touch since it adds entry points automatically to your .local/bin
11:28 AM roguish[m]: the code you just posted got removed. what happened? did you remove it?
11:29 AM hazzy-m: but you should be able to run form the display line if you set the file as exicutable and pass the full path
11:29 AM hazzy-m: I hit enter before finishing it lol
11:34 AM * hazzy-m sent a long message: < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/yqsHAHGVtkGuTGwjHthjpEOL >
11:34 AM hazzy-m: add that to your machine config dir
11:35 AM hazzy-m: it will load an additional window from the axis_info.ui file loacated in the same dir as the YAML file
11:35 AM roguish[m]: i assume 'axis_info.ui' is my .ui file?

11:36 AM hazzy-m: there we go, that's right, finally
11:36 AM hazzy-m: yes
11:36 AM hazzy-m: change it to match your file name, same for the title etc.
11:37 AM hazzy-m: you can also specify where the default location of the window when it starts
11:38 AM roguish[m]: ok, so that is my 'custom_config.yml' called by a CONFIG_FILE= in my .ini ?
11:38 AM hazzy-m: ```
11:38 AM hazzy-m: kwargs:
11:38 AM hazzy-m: position: 0x0
11:38 AM hazzy-m: yes
11:40 AM roguish[m]: ok. i'll try it out. the position thing gets tough, as I have 2 screens.... I think there is a way to indicate which screen, but don't worry about that right now...... just another permutation to think about......lololo
11:45 AM roguish[m]: ok, about time for a short ride. it's almost up to 50. was down at 30 earlier. homey don't ride in less than 50.

06:42 PM Tom_itx is now known as Tom_L
06:55 PM Lcvette: Turboss, any reason the setting entry for probe calibration would be broken in the new release? It is not holding the calibration
06:55 PM Lcvette: Almost crashed :o
06:55 PM TurBoss: hell
06:56 PM Lcvette: .... /o\
06:56 PM TurBoss: you updated and settings where lost?
06:56 PM Lcvette: Lcvette we about to run a part when I noticed the probe offset reset to 1.0000
06:57 PM Lcvette: Saw that it used that in the part location calculation
06:57 PM Lcvette: Was saying a part was 5" instead of 3.5"
06:57 PM Lcvette: :o

07:01 PM TurBoss: \o/
07:05 PM JT[m]: hmm still some tweaking to do g82 matches g8 first
07:07 PM TurBoss: Lcvette: you have to calibrate again? or what?
07:09 PM TurBoss: I think that there is a file that gets reset buy updates
07:09 PM TurBoss: should be keept
07:09 PM TurBoss: * I think that there is a file that gets reset by updates
07:22 PM Lcvette: This is an issue I thought had been resolved previously but now seems to be back
07:23 PM Lcvette: If I set the Cal offset, it disappears and reverts to 1.000
07:30 PM TurBoss: Lcvette:
07:30 PM TurBoss: are you running installer version?
07:32 PM Lcvette: Yes
07:32 PM roguish[m]: JT: good golly JT. that's a lot of colors.
07:35 PM TurBoss: installer uses a copy of the sim and other files that needs to be fixed bu fetching the latest vestion
07:35 PM TurBoss: I'll work on it
07:35 PM Lcvette: Does the settings branch not come through in the update?
07:36 PM TurBoss: checking
