08:29 AM TurBoss: I think its like that
08:29 AM JT-Cave: I need to have on my main page a small window that shows press run to probe inside or something like that
08:29 AM TurBoss: I don't think msg was implemented
08:30 AM TurBoss: hmmmmm
08:31 AM TurBoss: JT-Cave:

08:32 AM Lcvette1: tax question
08:33 AM Lcvette1: mind telling me your method of claiming your home shop space/office?
08:40 AM JT-Shop: TurBoss, what will display that?
08:40 AM JT-Shop: Lcvette1, hmm I don't know if I even bother to claim the shops
08:40 AM Lcvette1: what?
08:40 AM Lcvette1: thats a YUGE deduction
08:42 AM TurBoss: jt that will show a dialog in axis
08:59 AM JT-Shop: I mean in my mill touch 6
08:59 AM JT-Shop: what qtpyvcp widget will display a msg from g code?
09:22 AM TurBoss: JT-Shop: thats what I mean that is a axis feature we will have to implement
09:22 AM TurBoss: but you can manipulate widgets via eval
09:22 AM TurBoss: make something visible True
09:23 AM TurBoss: ```
09:23 AM TurBoss: (DEBUG, EVAL[vcp.getWidget{"press_me_button"}.setText{"test"}])
09:24 AM * TurBoss sent a long message: < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/VDOBRSEsovFbNNNuzFoktCAh/message.txt >
09:24 AM hazzy-m: JT-Shop: (MSG, my message) should work
09:24 AM TurBoss: wow
09:24 AM hazzy-m: Unless you have notifications turned off
09:24 AM TurBoss: I think he wants a dialog
09:25 AM TurBoss: with text and ok button
09:25 AM hazzy-m: Ok, that would have to be implemented
09:25 AM TurBoss: axis does should be easy to do
09:25 AM hazzy-m: Should be easy, just connect to the new message signal
09:26 AM JT-Shop: yeah just to display the last message from g code
09:59 AM JT-Cave: I'm not seeing a new message signal is that new?
10:02 AM JT-Cave: nm I found it in notifications
10:02 AM JT-Cave: thanks for the tip
10:47 AM Lcvette1: Lcvette is bored in the urologist waiting room
10:48 AM Lcvette1: Pee a little blood and everyone freaks out
10:57 AM TurBoss: Hello!
11:21 AM TurBoss: <Lcvette1 "Lcvette is bored in the urologis"> you fine?
11:52 AM Lcvette1: seems so, he said nothing to be concerned about and said come back in 6 months
11:52 AM Lcvette1: \o/
11:58 AM TurBoss: cool
12:22 PM hazzy-m: pinder: welcome!
12:26 PM TurBoss: welcome!
12:26 PM TurBoss: :-)
12:26 PM pinder[m]: hazzy: Nice to see the mill screen
12:26 PM pinder[m]: Do you need some mockup?
12:27 PM TurBoss: hey guys what about the PR
12:27 PM TurBoss: is red not visible with glasses?
12:30 PM TurBoss: https://github.com/KurtJacobson/monokrom-vcp/pulls
12:39 PM hazzy-m: TurBoss: i just haven't had time to merge it!
12:41 PM pinder[m]: It would not look appropriate
12:41 PM pinder[m]: contrast ratio is less with black background
12:41 PM TurBoss: well can be tweaked
12:41 PM pinder[m]: You can try with somewhat light background
12:42 PM pinder[m]: I'll try today if yohw amt
12:42 PM pinder[m]: want*
12:42 PM TurBoss: <pinder[m] "You can try with somewhat light "> this makes sense
12:43 PM TurBoss: <hazzy-m "TurBoss: i just haven't had time"> oh no worries thanks !
12:43 PM hazzy-m: I merged!
12:44 PM hazzy-m: From mobile lol
12:44 PM TurBoss: :_)
12:44 PM TurBoss: ok I'll try another color combo for red
12:44 PM pinder[m]: TurBoss: You have any inspirational design with red
12:45 PM pinder[m]: ?
12:45 PM TurBoss: not for plasma
12:45 PM TurBoss: just cnc
12:45 PM pinder[m]: For mill
12:45 PM pinder[m]: for any
12:47 PM TurBoss: my UI is ugly... Id like to add sass
12:47 PM TurBoss: but not mono
12:48 PM pinder[m]: can you show
12:48 PM * TurBoss uploaded an image: image.png (231KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/jauriarts.org/NVpxnJYWMvsdXwDwJnzPJpRb/image.png >
12:48 PM TurBoss: sure
12:48 PM TurBoss: the most pain was set the images from qss
12:49 PM TurBoss: to the widgets
12:49 PM TurBoss: ended setting "border-image" i think
12:49 PM TurBoss: that screenshot is old now is much worse
12:50 PM TurBoss: the mos fun was make the buttons, I used blender then tooks some renders 🙂
12:53 PM pinder[m]: Yeah I know this GUI
12:53 PM pinder[m]: Its a good work
12:53 PM TurBoss: hehe ty
12:55 PM TurBoss: I didn't follow monokrom thread on the linuxcnc forums
12:55 PM TurBoss: but saw many pics and tested localy
12:55 PM TurBoss: its design is very smoth
12:55 PM TurBoss: * its design is very smooth
12:55 PM pinder[m]: TurBoss: Thankyou
12:56 PM pinder[m]: I use adobe xd
12:56 PM pinder[m]: Its pretty fast for prototyping
12:56 PM TurBoss: I saw 🙂
12:57 PM TurBoss: xD
01:06 PM * pinder[m] uploaded an image: plasmac.png < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/onVXedsawrQtZAZPMTewKvZk/plasmac.png >
01:06 PM pinder[m]: In starting, I used shadows which gave a pretty 3d look.
01:14 PM hazzy-m: pinder: shadows are hard in Qt though, glad you went to flat!
01:14 PM hazzy-m: Makes it much easier
01:15 PM pinder[m]: Yeah
01:18 PM pinder[m]: who deaigned probe basic?
01:19 PM pinder[m]: designed*
01:19 PM Lcvette1: o/
01:19 PM Lcvette1: I did
01:19 PM Lcvette1: :D
01:20 PM pinder[m]: That's how the axis should be
01:20 PM Lcvette1: hello Pinder!
01:21 PM pinder[m]: Most people to whom I suggest linuxcnc
01:21 PM pinder[m]: Look away due to axis
01:21 PM pinder[m]: first impressiom coumts
01:22 PM pinder[m]: impression counts*
01:22 PM Lcvette1: i was not a fan of axis
01:22 PM Lcvette1: and with the help of hazzy and turboss, i designed Probe Basic
01:22 PM Lcvette1: its a hybrid of all the other screensets iver tried previously and liked
01:24 PM pinder[m]: Most people who use linuxcnc for milling machine are shifting to probe basic
01:24 PM Lcvette1: \o/
01:24 PM Lcvette1: hurray!
01:24 PM hazzy-m: Lcvette was a complete nooby, but now he's the Kung Fu QSS master!
01:25 PM Lcvette1: hahahaha
01:25 PM pinder[m]: Same thing with me.
01:25 PM Lcvette1: dunno about that... maybe a greenbelt
01:25 PM Lcvette1: :D
01:26 PM pinder[m]: I need some time with qtpyvcp
01:26 PM pinder[m]: is there any programmkmg?
01:26 PM Lcvette1: thanks to hazzy and turboss, most of the hard programming is already done
01:27 PM Lcvette1: i would say in most cases the only thing needed is to work your gui design magic
01:27 PM Lcvette1: then maybe if at all have to tweak some existing code files in python
01:27 PM Lcvette1: but even that i think now days isn't even necessary
01:27 PM Lcvette1: most everything can be accomplished inside qtdesigner
01:28 PM hazzy-m: Most of it is pre-tweaked lol
01:28 PM pinder[m]: I'll watch some videos on qtdesigner
01:29 PM pinder[m]: Coz I got many projects in my head
01:30 PM hazzy-m: Yes, lots of good videos out there
01:31 PM pinder[m]: Can you suggest a some?
01:43 PM hazzy-m: pinder: I'll check when I get home. Still "working"
01:44 PM pinder[m]: hazzy: thanks, kurt
01:47 PM pinder[m]: Does qtpyvcp work on rpi4?
05:50 PM hazzy-m: pinder: yes, several people are running it on a RPi
05:50 PM hazzy-m: you need a custom build of VTK however
05:51 PM hazzy-m: scott ford on the forum has made his build available, check the QtPyVCP section of the forum
06:13 PM hazzy-m: pinder: have you seen the tutorials?
06:13 PM hazzy-m: https://www.qtpyvcp.com/tutorials/basic_vcp/index.html
06:30 PM CaptHindsight: hazzy-m: have you tried running at 4K res on the 2.8 Rpi4 image?
07:13 PM hazzy-m: CaptHindsight: I have not, I haven't even got my pi4 running yet
07:13 PM hazzy-m: it's seeing here all sad and neglected
