Hi blackrat6355,

Thanks for the positive feedback...yep I see how that could happen...here is .Set file...thats all you need to update.

Acualy this is a native Mach screen.
Check to see that the folder "Mach softLight" is located in C:\Mach3\Bitmaps\Mach softLight

Hi Sour kraut,
Which video did you need?
I'll have 16 Flash components avalible in the next few days that I think you'll realy like. You just drag and drop them and enter in the Mach OEM nubers that you want.

Hey Dave,
Great looking screen!
The "To GO" DRO's will show the amount of distance the machine needs to travel to accomplish the current Gcode line. Which DRO you’re looking for a "Next move", is this the distance of the next move or the next line of Gcode?

In Flash you can make your own devices..I make applications to work with my softkeys for my phone...but this could also be used for any device...and configured however you want. This is included in Flash for hardware devices:
See picture

What about in either VB or flash store the value to a userDRO, and send the value to the DRO depending on which softkey button was pressed along the side...or store which softkey was pressed and on "Send value" send to that DRO.
Or they could use the "Tab" hotkey to scroll the different DRO's currently on the screen...
In Flash you would use watch and is farley simple to do. The softkeys along the side would be assigned to DRO's, this can also be per screen, and you could also use tab.

hey Whacko,
Where you in Johannesburg with your girlfriend? I read about it in the news, but it might have been a diffrent story.

  forsure the VB way is the long and slow way around doing what Art's already done in C++  , but it might help if you want to mix it up with other code

If you really want control you can do some VB on a button script 
This will open the currentl file loaded in Mach with Notepad...but you can tell it any program you want

Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim dTaskID As Double, path As String, file As String
path = "C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe"
fileToLoad = Filename
dTaskID = Shell(path + " " + fileToLoad, vbNormalFocus)
MsgBox ("Text loaded")
End
End Sub

You might ask Lee to send you the XML also if you do a search for "Probotix" on the Yahoo forum you'll find some post about there products and how people are using them:
