The latest version(2686) seems to have fixed Mach4 license issue on my XP machine. But still having a license problem with the Darwin plugin. Not sure about any other plugins.

Hey Mike
  I'm having the same problem with the last 2 or 3 (2660 and 2673 for sure) versions of Mach4. also using XP.... I emailed them about it ... but probably won't hear anything till next week sometime(holiday weekend and all). now that someone else is having the same problem it sounds like a bug to me in the newer versions.

I would guess the problem may not be in the mach3 software.... I would probably look into the wiring(especially ground wires since it's more than one axis) loose connections can cause all kinds of problems.... after that I would look at the  control on the machine.... maybe contact the manufacturer.

Do your DRO's read correctly....... when you move the X axis(or any axis) to a minus 1 inch does the DRO go to the right position?

go to the list on the left and highlight what you want to move.... I have found for me it's much easier to put in the numbers for the height width and location.... rather than trying to move stuff with the mouse but highlighting  it in the list should work either way.

does the DRO show the axis moving on the axis that shouldn't be moving?

yeah kinda figured that was a typo or something. do ya get the error with all scripts? maybe a corrupted file with the editor?
not sure if the lua plugin has anything to do with the editor. just tryin to throw some ideas out.

Has anybody noticed when entering and exiting Edit Screens their "Main tabs" panel keeps dropping from the top by a value of 6 then 26 then 36 or something whereas you have to constantly resize and format your panels? Just wonderin...

I get that too ...I've just gotten used to making sure the screen is up all the way and to the left when I open the screen editor .... if not I move it close the screen editor without saving and re-open it.
