Gentlemen,

Debian Wheezy
latest linuxcnc release - installed today - but the last release did the
same thing
Axis interface
Kasuga 3 axis mill

when starting (run from here) on line 310 I get the error "length of cutter
compensation entry move is not greater than the tool radius"

This only happens when I 'run from here'.
When running through the program the machine runs this code just fine. I
cannot run through the program as I must change tools in the holder - set
the tool length - and - start by picking 'run from here' (right click on
the mouse).

status window shows G40 prior to initiating 'run from here'
after initiating 'run from here' the error shows and the status window
shows G41
mdi g40 resets the status window
reinitiation of 'run from here' shows the error and sets the status window
to G41

Editing the G41 and G40 out of the program allows 'run from here' to start
the machine and run the tool.


The displayed status is NOT the current status of the interpreter, it is the status of the screen preview, which has normally run to the end of short programs. When doing run from line, you have to be careful to clear any mode settings like tool length/radius compensation, arc planes, absolute/incremental, circular arcs, etc. to the right setting for the following lines.

There have been times I couldn't figure out what crazy mode I got in, and just restarted LinuxCNC instead of fooling around longer.
