When you say "stand alone" do you mean one that is loaded from halrun
without LinuxCNC running?

I have tried 2.7 and master and the behaviour seems the same (and
neither work properly)

I made a simple glade UI consisting of a window and a hbox containing
a button and a HAL gremlin widget.

in both 2.7 and master:

halrun
loadusr gladevcp gremlin.ui

opens the window but the Gremlin pane shows whatever was on screen
when it was created, and lets you move that around.

linuxcnc
halcmd -kf
loadusr gladevcp gremlin.ui

Is a bit better. But with both OS versions I only get the origin
triad, and that tends to disappear when the screen is rotated.
No G-code preview is seen

But I have never tried to use Gremlin before, so may be omitting steps.
