@Jon,

you are wrong!

I just connected as follows:

net jog-x  jogwheel.jog-wheel-x => axis.0.jog-counts
setp axis.0.jog-enable 1
setp axis.0.jog-scale 0.1

I included that one in axis, as you mentioned it will work with that GUI

OK it does in Manual mode, as soon as you change to the MDI tab, it will 
not work any more!

Exactly that is what I do mean!

I am not speaking of auto Mode, in that mode jogging should never be 
allowed!

But MDI mode is often used to make single parts, so why not to jog if 
the interpreter is IDLE?

@All you developers:
Please think in the poor GUI programer like me ;-)

I can avoid to change to MDI mode even if the user changes to that GUI 
view. I can also check for Interpreter is IDLE to allow jogging, change 
to MDI Mode if the user execute a MDI command, change back after that to 
manual mode etc. So that part is just about 100 lines of code, but....

What if the user use a MDI_COMMAND from the INI file? What happen if he 
use HALUI stuff etc.
I do not know how to handle that situations, so I need at least a 
blocking signal. If True, the user is not allowed to do ...., or If I do 
block from the GUI, the interpreter is not allowed to do ...

Is that not a way to make every part happy?
