Thank you (and Kirk) for showing the write direction.
This bug only happens in lathes that the user uses the .axisrc like
described in: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?BackToolLathe
Not sure the number of people using a lathe with backtoopost, so I am
unaware if this issue is relevant.
In this case, for any tool with diameter != 0, the backplot does not
displays the tool. It simply shows some points on the screen, that flick a
bit. It is like the tool is being drawn, but is not able to.
I changed a lot of code for nothing, that I found out that the problem
is not on the linuxcnc code (this is, all the points are correct), but
rather the GL_TRIANGLE_FAN is not displaying correctly the points. I do
not know way, but I suspect it have something to do with the initial point
of the triangle fan. Unfortunately I do not know so much on opengl. To
prove my statement, I transformed all the TRIANGLE_FAN into lines (using
the same coordinates), and NOW THE TOOL PREVIEW IS DISPLAYED.
Please take a look into the two images, below, that compares both
situations.
