Hi all,

I would like to put 2 types of variables on each line of the LCD at a fixed starting position, is this possible.. If so..HOW? Huh

ie.
Line 1: X-DRO and behind this (ofcourse at a fixed position) the feedrate
Line 2: Y-DRO and behind this (ofcourse at a fixed position) the spindlespeed
Line 3: Z-DRO and behind this (ofcourse at a fixed position) the jograte
Line 4: A-DRO and behind this (ofcourse at a fixed position) the toolnumber

I can get 2 variables on the LCD, however not at a fixed location..

Hope that someone can help me out (and probably others as well)

Cheers,
BriBis

Can you post how did you get 2 types of variables to one line of the LCD?
Maybe we can find a solution to your problem.

guys, on your single line, insert spaces "    " between your "two" items, the first is the info on the left, then and in your space, then and in your secondary
display item.

BriBis,

Here's a line from my macropump

setuserlabel(201,"X"& Format(getdro(0)," 0000.000;-0000.000")&" F"&Format(getoemdro(818)," ####00"))

The key is to make the first entry a fixed width. That's why I use the Format function. Hope it helps.
