Gentlemen, Thank you very much for including this function. After updating the emc2-head I am unable to start the axis display on my machine. The updated version will start the tkemc display. I have the configuration file tested for the axis display. I will work on this today with tkemc but I would like someone to check the error messages to let me know what I need to do to fix this. I would include my configuration files but I receive the same message using the sim directory also.
