07:56 PM becksvill: hey guys. just checking in and seeing how the probe basic lathe screens are going. any way I can help with testing and advice from how industrial controllers work just let me know
08:18 PM hazzy-m1: becksvill: hello
08:19 PM becksvill: hi
08:20 PM becksvill: just saw this.
08:21 PM becksvill: its lunch time here in new zealand but probably some silly time in the morning for you guys in america
08:30 PM Lcvette: hazzy: thats what there ius
08:32 PM Lcvette: i have the buttons just for quick change selection
08:32 PM Lcvette: as with everything else in probe basic it is more reliant on user interface control rather than mdi
08:33 PM Lcvette: this is no different though in its function
08:33 PM Lcvette: the buttons only issue mdi commands
08:33 PM Lcvette: i only think the shown dro's are what are needed but should reflect the diameter or the radius depensding on the mode
08:34 PM Lcvette: currently they are statiuc
08:34 PM Lcvette: non entry enabled
08:35 PM hazzy-m1: ok
08:35 PM * hazzy-m1 uploaded an image: image.png (36KB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/iPsQaiUNHftUpPVRnkdzSHfN >
08:35 PM hazzy-m1: these are the options the new DROs have
08:36 PM Lcvette: that should be rgeat
08:36 PM Lcvette: and you can enter into them?
08:36 PM hazzy-m1: yes
08:36 PM Lcvette: great!!
08:36 PM Lcvette: i think thats all that is needed
08:36 PM Lcvette: the auto should be perfect
08:38 PM becksvill: that looks good. I don't think I have ever used radius mode on a lathe before. maybe just for setting a home position
08:40 PM becksvill: hey next time I am out at the place I contract with do you guys want to see a detailed over view of the semiens control? it might give you some ideas
08:45 PM hazzy-m1: becksvill: Yes, that would be awesome!
08:46 PM hazzy-m1: just a cell phone video of the main screens would be very helpful
08:46 PM hazzy-m1: YouTube is not much help with that
09:12 PM Joco[m]1: becksvill: you up in AKL?
09:12 PM Becksvill: in new plymouth
09:12 PM Becksvill: going up to auckland next week though to pick another cnc mill lol
09:12 PM Becksvill: I just bought another project
09:12 PM Joco[m]1: Ah out west. I’m WLG
09:13 PM Becksvill: my brother is in wellington
09:13 PM Becksvill: have you retrofitted any machines yet?
09:13 PM Joco[m]1: what sort of cnc?
09:14 PM Joco[m]1: I’m a hobby user. So converted a baby BF20
09:14 PM Becksvill: a big vertical machining centre. 5ton beasty with with all the bells and whistles like a 10k rpm spindle 24tool atc etc
09:15 PM Becksvill: I also have a cnc lathe i need to retrofit soon
09:15 PM Joco[m]1: wow. Guess you have an industrial location for something that big.
09:15 PM Lcvette: One of my favorite shows is from new New Zealand
09:16 PM Lcvette: The Almighty Johnson's
09:16 PM Lcvette: \o/
09:16 PM Lcvette: * One of my favorite shows is from New Zealand

09:17 PM Lcvette: :D
09:17 PM Becksvill: joco yes I have 13*12 m shed on 20 acres (dads farm)
09:18 PM Lcvette: Hazzy you did it?
09:18 PM Lcvette: \o/
09:19 PM Joco[m]1: <Becksvill "joco yes I have 13*12 m shed on "> Nice! I’m in the burbs. So have taken over the garage. Can’t have to much weight as pad won’t hack it.
09:19 PM hazzy-m1: Becksvill: Nice shop! I'm out of space ...
09:19 PM Becksvill: haha
09:19 PM Becksvill: i have a whole farm to expand out to. been machining injection molds this week. loving linuxcnc.

09:20 PM Joco[m]1: qtpyvcp isn’t too bad if you have a coding background.
09:20 PM hazzy-m1: sorry for the spam
09:21 PM Lcvette: Spam is good!
09:21 PM Joco[m]1: Although some of the pythonese still does my head in.
09:21 PM Becksvill: hazzy its the sound of progress! really I am the one spamming with off topic stuff lol
09:21 PM Joco[m]1: hazzy: re spam, all I will say is “gcode editor”
09:21 PM hazzy-m1: it does not help that QtPyVPC was developed primarily by non coders. We learn as we go lol
09:22 PM Joco[m]1: 😇
09:23 PM hazzy-m1: Becksvill: not at all! What are the injection molds for, if I may ask?
09:23 PM hazzy-m1: Joco: haha, I think the GcodeEditor is almost done
09:24 PM Lcvette: hazzy: is out ready to install and test on probe basic?
09:24 PM * hazzy-m1 tries to get up the courage to merge the new DROs
09:24 PM Becksvill: not sure actually I think it is for a plastic cap on some part
09:24 PM Lcvette: Merge it
09:25 PM Lcvette: I wil test it and to find any issues
09:25 PM Joco[m]1: 😱
09:25 PM Lcvette: * I wil test it to find any issues
09:26 PM Becksvill: I will try attach some photos.
09:27 PM Lcvette: Hazzy you wanna test merge in the lathe branch?

09:31 PM Lcvette: ok
09:31 PM Lcvette: thanks hazzy!!!
09:31 PM Lcvette: turboss, are you here?
09:33 PM Lcvette: i think for the time being we can merge the vtk lathe branch into master as well so all the tool and dro functionality can be tested together
09:33 PM Lcvette: what do you think turboss?
09:41 PM Lcvette: yes found it!
09:41 PM Lcvette: lathe mode 0 or 1?
09:41 PM hazzy-m1: use the editor :)
09:41 PM hazzy-m1: double click on the DRO
09:42 PM hazzy-m1: or right click and select Edit DRO settings
09:42 PM Lcvette: ah i see
09:42 PM Lcvette: so the designer property editor leave alone do all through window editor
09:42 PM Lcvette: thats slick!
09:43 PM hazzy-m1: exactly
09:43 PM Lcvette: im getting that error you mentioned about the load meter too
09:43 PM Lcvette: i just replace that with the new one?
09:43 PM hazzy-m1: I might should hide the options in the property editor ...
09:43 PM hazzy-m1: I already replaced it
09:43 PM hazzy-m1: but on master ....
09:44 PM Lcvette: im on master and still getting the error
09:52 PM Lcvette: hazzy: it appears that all the dro's are effected by the G7 or G8 command
09:52 PM Lcvette: :o
09:53 PM Lcvette: hazzy: may need an option to turn off if not X axis?
09:53 PM hazzy-m1: damn it
09:53 PM hazzy-m1: I forgot to make it only for x
09:54 PM hazzy-m1: I removed that for testing
09:54 PM Lcvette: /o\
09:54 PM Lcvette: thats what i test for!
09:54 PM hazzy-m1: lol
09:54 PM Lcvette: :D
09:54 PM Lcvette: i'm the luggage tester
09:58 PM Lcvette: hazzy: just a side thing i tried to reimplement the unhomed/homing/homed style sheet but it isn't working anymore
09:58 PM Lcvette: is that no longer possible with the new line edit?
09:58 PM * Lcvette uploaded an image: Screenshot_2020-06-14_22-49-13.png (29KB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/LRfJnlZAxsGJSPcMhpibrwDF >

10:00 PM hazzy-m1: * that was rule driven
10:01 PM Lcvette: ok
10:02 PM Becksvill: hey guys I am currently dual booting my laptop to run linux mint (with linuxcnc already on it) and then will hopefully be able to learn a bit of this stuff. it looks quite cool.
10:03 PM Lcvette: Becksvill: its super cool

10:07 PM hazzy-m1: sweet
10:09 PM Lcvette: for machine coordinates we should not be able to edit those correct?
10:10 PM Lcvette: or it doesn't but actually sends to the work offset dro?
10:11 PM hazzy-m1: don't use a DROLineEdit for that
10:11 PM hazzy-m1: use the DROLabel
10:11 PM Lcvette: ok
10:11 PM hazzy-m1: I thought about having it act like a jog to poosition
10:11 PM hazzy-m1: if you type into the ABS dro
10:12 PM hazzy-m1: but it would need to have a warning pop up that it would cause machine movement
