Title: Softlimits not working with smoothstepper
Post by: kencor1 on August 13, 2008, 05:25:00 PM

I have come accross another problem, my softlimits no longer work after installing my smooth stepper. They were working fine with the parallel port configuration.  I have checked my settings everything seems OK but softlimits won't work at all. Does anyone have any ideas.

Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,

I believe this is already known. Check out the Smooth Stepper area here:

I actually found a link that Gregs says where they are on the soft limits function, Tom:

Hi,

I did some BETA testing for Greg a while ago on a plugin that has the soft limits working.  In this version of the plugin the soft limits performed virtually the same as they do when using the PP.  There were a couple of quirky things though and I reported all of my findings back to Greg.  I think he is/should be VERY close to releasing a new plugin that has soft limits implemented.

HTH,
