Just out of interest. Does anyone know what is happening with the probe basic gui screen that has being developed currently? It looks really cool and I would love to use it/ maybe modify it if needed. The Gui is the biggest problem with linuxcnc I think. the Axis screen looks like it comes out of the 1950s now. I think the original designer did a awesome job to have it still used to this day! but it is about time for a new look. and I have not seen any G screens that I really like so far. Open to suggestions though of course.
