Anything is possible, but some things take a lot of effort, and this might be one of them. The Axis interface already displays active G-codes in the MDI window. As you have noticed, there is no HAL pin for G43 state, so you would have to make a HAL component to create on. This is possible but needs coding. A better starting point might be GladeVCP. GladeVCP allows you to embed code in the widgets, and maybe create your own. I suspect that that would be a better starting point. http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gui/gladevcp.html -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
