I too think this would be a handy feature, like you're jogging an axis + is moving through the program, turn the wheel back and it goes backward (or selectable feed hold?) so you can jog through a program to check clearances etc, instead of turning down the rapid and holding your finger on the feed hold button. A bell or whistle to add would be a beep every new line of code, just so the user knows it finished one move and could be completely changing directions. or whatever comes next in the program. I've only set up and run jobs (at work) that I already remembered every move / cut it makes, so I dont know if you'd remember every move a program you just wrote would be making. Just some thoughts on a feature i've always thought would be really handy. I really dont know what would have to be done between the traj. planner and motion controller.
