Title: help text
Post by: django013 on April 29, 2017, 12:13:41 PM

Hello,

there are plenty help-buttons in mach4 screen.

Are those texts available? I searched the po-files to translate the texts, but I did not find them.
On the buttons I see a single function call, so no texts either.

Those function calls are defined in one of the lua modules.  for example on the probing tab for mill the help? button for measure X has a function called SingleSurfHelp(), which is defined in mcProbing.lua

Thank you for that hint.

The point is, there's lot of writings in the manual, I don't understand (yet?). Although I had read the chapter about modules, I don't know, how they come into play ...
Anyway - thanks to your hint, I can start translating the help-texts :)
