This seems very similar in principle (and in execution) to my lathe macros: https://forum.linuxcnc.org/41-guis/26550-lathe-macros?start=240#247195 And, in fact, it is just a case of editing/creating the SVG files and adding the buttons to each tab to make this work for milling (or any other machine) This post includes instructions on how to make your own cycles and graphics (including the rather hacky way that the numeric entry boxes are positioned by data hidden in the XML of their tooltip) Note that the lathe macros are included in one of the Gmoccapy sample configs - sim/gmoccapy/lathe_configs/lathe_macros -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
