Mach Screens / Re: How to load file without using explorer.

« on: September 01, 2011, 07:38:53 PM »

Okay done with the file manager and g editor, now to enable to manager to pass a file to mach. How would I go about explaining to the developer to "mark" the file in the file manager that then gets sent to mach?

Have you tried putting a dwell in between the G1 lines?

Okay I see what you mean Chris, I didn't even think of that(not a software programmer), thanks, yes that will work great with so much less effort!

Hi,

Thank you, I've thought about your solution, it should work but is a bit of coding.
I've hired someone to try and hack the windows box... I don't know if it will be possible, if not then I will ask the developer to look into using the screen to do it instead...

Hi

With Kflop backlash is set in the kmotion software, you use kmotion as a gui to generate your C code then use the plugin in mach.
Hopefully in future they move to ethernet, usb isn't all that.

Wait, every time you hit the hotkey it will go back to the initial dro then though maybe I can work something with the function keys to get going.

Mach Screens / How to load file without using explorer.

As title says, again need to load a file without using explorer, which requires too many tab button pressings.

Is there an alternative way to create a file list from the hard drive and select a file from the list for mach to load?

Hi

I have another mouseless query.
How can you send a cursor to a dro or input box?
For instance when clicking on a button to change screens, now there are some dro's but using the cursor buttons doesn't do anything until I've clicked on the dro's after that it will tab between them, but I need to do this without a mouse?
