jog and run from closest

[Bill_O]

I do not know if this is possible but it would be nice to be able to jog to an area near a toolpath and then do a run from here instead of scrolling back through the program.

And have Mach3 guess where you want to start? Don't quite follow you.

[Bill_O]

I am not totally out in left field on this one. I know that at least one router manufacturer is able to do this.
If I am running a job and the bit breaks, after replacing the bit if I jog to the last area that had a cut I want Mach to start at the closest line to where the machine physically is.

Ever use the "Run From Here" button?

[Bill_O]

Yes and it works great.
What I want to do is from my pendant jog to a location near the cut that was interrupted (broke bit, lunch break or ) and run from the closest line of gcode. I do not want to go back to the computer and scroll back through the file to find the point I wish to run from.

I could write the code to do this but it would be paid time

[Bill_O]

Zealous,
Thanks for the offer but it is not that important. If Brian could do this as part of the next Mach I would like it. Please Brian .
