From the discussion I have heard there are many concerns about putting this functionality into EMC2 plus it is viewed as being very difficult.
However, I was working some some hal configuration the other day and there is a hal component that allows an offset to be put into a position command signal and at the same time it offsets the feedback signal the same amount. If EMC2 was paused and then the offset value changed to the hal component, I believe the axis could effectively be jogged back and forth via some hal pin that could be controlled via a PyVCP panel. If you did that to each axis in your system I "think" you could jog around while paused. But at the same time the DROs on the EMC2 screen would not change. The trick to doing this would be that you would have to bring the axis back to a zero offset situation (more hal configuration and PyVCP buttons) before resuming the program or else you would have an offset your tool/axis position that EMC2 would be unaware of and you would probably be cutting your part in a manner you did not intend. 8-O Doing a tool touch off in this state would be an entirely separate matter. I don't see a way to do that in hal.
