Title: Screen4 Help
Post by: M250cnc on August 30, 2009, 07:15:24 PM

I keep losing the ability to select the buttons/dros etc

I shift left click as per the video then it just stops working

This is the lathe screen

Any ideas ?

I find I have to use Screen 3 for some tasks and Screen 4 for other tasks. Both editors have there own set of problems and or lack of functionality.

Try right clicking.

Try using MachScreen instead.  It's about 1000X more user friendly.  And *if* you do find a bug (as opposed to Screen4 where you WILL fund many bugs), Klaus is very good about fixing them and posting a new version.  Last time I found a minor bug, he posted a new version less than 24 hours later.
