Title: New potential screen ( I just dont know any more)
Post by: ynneb on March 24, 2006, 07:04:40 AM
Because I am starting at these screens so long I just cant descide if they are good or crap anymore.
I have attached a sample of just one frame. Am I wasting my time? will they be of any benifit.
I just can tell.

Looks terrific.
I just envy those guys that can play with screen setups. I wish I could have the same display on my Mach3 program.
I haven't got a clue how to do it. I can't even resize my standard screens to show all the data.
Is there any documentation somewhere on how to play with them?

Thanks, keep going. It is a tremendous help for us newbies to see the potential Mach3 can demonstrate.

Looks very, very nice. Don't forget us touchscreen users for the main buttons, nice to be large enough to use with a fingertip. Very cool.

Benny, personally I prefer the first to the second (not keen on wood effect surround)  but both are very nice. Can you provide blank buttons in your release so that users can put there own text in for customising?
 Superb job, just wish I had the artistic skills to do these kind of things.

Benny,
I like this one better than the previous "brass metal look" I think you captured the general effect that I mentioned in that thread, whereby the background needed to be less bold so the data could be emphasized. I personally like the grey metal over brass metal, but not a fan of the wood trim shown in the second image. Overall, though the clean and shine look fantastic. Can you add a layer of dried coolant spatter & dirt? :D I guess we can add that on our own.

Benny, they both look pretty cool. How hard would it be to minimize them to 3 axes, X, Y, and Z only? How soon do you plan on posting them to the forum??
